If you like to go fast, Blizzard Firebird WRC is a great choice.  All of Blizzard's best technology in one amazing ski.  No compromises.  World Cup construction, Marker race plate interface with Piston dampening built in, and now featuring Blizzard's unique C Armor and C Spine engineering for the ultimate in edge hold and high speed stability.

C Armor is is a layer of bi-directional graphite that is positioned in the center of the ski, under the binding plate.  This graphite right under the feet increases edge hold and stability in the middle phase of the turn, as the ski is hooked up in the carve, and provides maximum power just when you need it most.  C Spine is another 2 layers of graphite material, running vertically down the center of the core, tip to tail.  This vertical graphite beam increases rebound at the end of the turn, providing maximum edge to edge responsiveness.  No other ski on the market except Firebird offers one of these additional engineered advantages, let alone both of them.

The Firebird WRC is built with Blizzard's powerful World Cup construction;  full wood core, ABS sidewalls, two sheets of Titanal.  And then it is topped off with Marker's amazing Piston Plate binding interface.  A binding race plate is intended to reduce vibration, helping keep the ski's edge in contact with the snow.  But, Marker takes that one step further with a hydraulic piston built in.  As the ski flexes, the Piston provides no resistance.  But, when the skier's pressure is released at the end of the turn, the Piston provides resistance to eliminate cycles of counter flexing/flexing as the ski changes edges.  Vibration is filtered out, chatter is reduced, and the ski feels amazingly smooth and ready to hook up with the snow as it is placed onto the new edge.

Blizzard says, "The Blizzard Firebird WRC is the top model in the Firebird line and it is best characterized by fasten your seatbelt power and a rock and roll attitude. It is the perfect ski for anyone looking for a precise and ultra stable race style ski that loves long radius, high speed turns. The magic under WRC's hood are the carbon technologies (C-Spine and C-Armor) combined with a Double Titinal Sandwich Compound Sidewall construction to deliver a ride that dreams are made of. The WRC brings a whole new meaning to the term, "Racers... Start your engines."

Bottom line... this ski
RIPS!!  If you like to go fast, YOU NEED THIS!

This ski's race plate requires a Marker XCell binding, and it is matched up here with the new Marker XCell 12.0 GW.  This binding is a perfect match to the ski, and can accommodate standard Alpine boot soles, as well as the new Grip Walk boots just coming onto the market.  You probably do not own a GW boot now, but you most likely will own one in the future.  This binding is compatible no matter which boot type you might ever have.
   •  DIN range is 4 to 12
