Black Pearl 88 Skis 2025

Fluxform Construction

Blizzard’s women-specific Fluxform construction incorporates a single layer of Titinal, positioned above the core. This layer is divided into two parts: an outer section closer to the ski’s edges beneath the topsheet, and a central beam aligned with the ski’s core. Below the core, there’s a layer of carbon fiber-reinforced fiberglass, enhancing performance without the weight of a metal laminate. This design results in a ski that balances power and dampness, providing a robust yet forgiving freeride feel.

TrueBlend

TrueBlend uses an exclusive blend of woods to provide 3 areas of density, meaning Blizzard can control the flex precisely through the whole length of the ski. The result is the same natural and dynamic flex for all sizes. For the skier it means more relaxed handling, better balance and precise control. To achieve this complex wood core structure required new production and manufacturing techniques. Using different types of wood makes it possible to modify the characteristics of the ski right at the core. For example, a ski should be stiffer in the area under the binding and softer towards the ski tips. This is why Blizzard builds the wood core with very small pieces of wood that are glued lengthwise. In the area of the binding, layers of harder wood are incorporated, and softer, lighter wood is used towards the tip and tail.
