Blizzard Sheeva 10 2018 Ski Review

Giving an impressive, energetic performance both on and off piste, the Blizzard Sheeva 10 2018 is going to be a very popular ski for the 2017/18 season.

This ski is most comfortable in soft powder, it’s wide waist allowing brilliant floatation. It is lightweight enough to be easily maneouverable through both shallow and deep snow. If you find yourself on uneven terrain, the Blizzard Sheeva is particularly impressive at being able to eat up the bumps and keep you in balance. This makes this ski a lot of fun to really explore the mountain on, going wherever you want with a great energy.

However, although it boasts a 102mm waist underfoot, the Blizzard Sheeva 10 doesn’t feel that wide when you ride it.

On piste, it’s easy to roll from edge to edge and grips incredibly well through the whole arc of the turn. It cuts through snow crud effortlessly so that you can ride as fast as you like and still feel in control. This is thanks to a Titanal sheet that runs through the ski, keeping a great stability that really helps you work on your technique across terrains.

The Blizzard Sheeva 10 can either be your one ski do everything ski, or your starter off piste ski that will allow you to progress as far as you can go.
