We click into the Black Pearl 97 Ski with confidence when we're itching to get into big mountain terrain, whether conditions are soft or firm. The 97mm waist makes these skis perfect for anything from boot-deep powder to flawless corduroy groomers, so we recommend them for people who might be splitting time between East Coast and Rocky Mountain destinations. Blizzard is known for making stiff, directional skis for confident skiers, and the Black Pearls maintain this reputation with a burly poplar core and Titanal laminate that inspires confidence at speed. The ski provides a touch of added forgiveness thanks to a relatively short turning radius that makes it easy to pivot and smear turns, which comes in handy for soft conditions and tight spaces.
