Blizzard Firebird SRC Race Plate (Race Inspired 2023/2024)

Product Summary

The Blizzard Firebird SRC Race Plate's full retail price is €950. The Ski costs roughly €60 more than the average price of all Race Inspired Skis, making it an upper mid-range model. Skilled skiers will enjoy both relaxed cruising and pushing the ski to its limit. This Race Inspired Ski definitely prefers groomers to powder runs. It is designed for perfect edge hold on-piste. Available lengths for the ski are ranging between 155 and 170cm. With a radius ranging from only 11 m to 13.50 m this ski is perfect for short turns and aggressive carving action.

The ski in details

If skiing in a straight line is your worst nightmare, this Firebird has your name all over it. The SRC Race Plate is designed for high-performance, short-radius turns to deliver that World Cup feeling.

But there’s no need for gates. Put this ski to the test on any groomed trail, hammer the front of the boot, and watch one turn flow into the next. You can credit much of this ski’s performance to the Carbon C-Spine, a compound construction that blends two sheets of carbon with poplar and ash laminates. This means ultimate stability from the carbon and forgiveness from the wood. Meanwhile, carbon armor dampens every turn to prevent chatter at high speeds. Last but not least, what sets this ski apart from its similar HRC counterparts is the Race Plate—inspired by our World Cup athletes to bring extra stability, power, and leverage through every turn. Full speed. Full send.

Technologies

  • 3Ti Duramax Sandwich Full Sidewall
  • Trueblend Race Woodcore
  • Full Camber


TRUEBLEND RACE WOODCORE
The Trueblend Race Woodcore is designed with a harder flex zone in the center, that provides stability and edge grip, a medium flex zone in front of and behind the binding that provides control, and a soft flex zone in the tip and tail that provides easy turn initiation and release.

DURAMAX
The top titanal layer is extended to the very edge of the ski and placed directly under the top foil which is then milled back 3 mm, thus exposing it.

HIGH VALUE DETAILS

  • Matt -shiny finish 
  • Storm icon plaquette
  • Gunmetal finish

3 TI CONSTRUCTION
3 areas of stiffness to match the different areas of flex of the Trueblend Race. A “soft” and precise turn initiation, amazing grip and support underfoot and finally a boosted acceleration while exiting the turn.
