Blizzard Magnum 8.7 IQ (2009)
If your idea of all-mountain skiing involves lots of quick tree shots, bumps, and clean hard-snow turns, the 8.7 is for you.
Props
Soft tip initiates and bends into turns easily. Very little effort required.
Gripes
Not a straightline bomber. It'll vary turn shape, but it always needs to be on edge.
Tester's Take
"A very well-rounded ski." -Chad Johnson
PRICE (MSRP): $1325.00
