Everyone’s shredding more sidecountry/backcountry lately. And just in time, Blizzard arrives with a dual-duty beast to solve your touring quandary. Namely, the Zero G —available for men and women. This well-balanced touring ski is crazy-light for the skin track and high-performing/stable for the downhill.

For 2022, Blizzard relaunched the Zero G with Carbon Drive 2.0 technology to deliver a lighter skin uphill and as much, if not more, performance on the downhill. The featherweight carbon fiber adds torsional stiffness while the wood core flexes naturally. Athlete feedback also helped Blizzard design the sidecut and running surface for improved control at specific waist widths. The 105mm is especially ideal for variable snow conditions, with generous underfoot width for more float when you need it.

The 105 mm waisted Zero G solves the longtime quandary of backcountry skis that need to be both lightweight for the uphill and high-performance for the downhill. It can handle resort groomers, too.
