Blizzard IQon 7900 Magnum (2008)
If you spend 80 percent of your ski time cranking down groomers, the 7900 is your ski. It doesn’t need to be muscled, and it dives into turns with a damp but lively feel.
Props
You can feather the edges or lock them into the arc.
Gripes
They’re a little squirrelly at high speeds.
