ESQUI SKI VÖLKL BLAZE 86 OLIVE V2410136 FLAT

General Description The Völkl Blaze 86 is an All Mountain ski that stands out for its surprisingly light weight, similar to that of a touring ski. It is a versatile and agile tool, designed for skiers who want the ability to ski athletically on piste, venture off it, or even go on ski tours. The "FLAT" designation indicates that the ski is sold without bindings, which gives you the freedom to choose the system that best suits your needs.

Sidecut and Turning Radius (3D Radius Sidecut) This is the most important aspect of the ski, which defines its behavior. The Blaze 86 uses 3D Radius Sidecut technology, which allows it to combine agility in short turns with stability in long turns.

• Sidecut: With dimensions of 129-86-111 mm, the ski has a wide tip (129 mm) to facilitate turn initiation and improve float, and a narrow waist (86 mm) that makes it agile and fast in edge changes.

• Turning Radius: The ski has three different turning radii on the same sidecut, which gives it its versatility:

  • Short radius (15.0 m) in the area underfoot: allows for quick and tight turns, ideal for carving and technical terrain.

  • Long radii (28.0 m and 23.0 m) in the tip and tail: provide great stability at high speed and facilitate wide and stable turns.

Other Key Features of the Ski

• Lightweight Construction: The ski is built with a continuous wood core that runs from tip to tail. This not only reduces weight, making it easier and more lively to handle, but also eliminates the need for plastic inserts.

• Suspension Elements: The model has suspension elements in the tip and tail. An elastic rubber material acts as a bumper, providing greater resistance to vibrations in uneven snow and better floatation.

• Tip & Tail Rocker Profile: The camber (traditional bridge) underfoot guarantees excellent edge grip, while the rocker (rise) in the tip and tail improves float in softer snow and facilitates turn entry and exit.
