Thunderbird 82 LTD Skis
Eighty-two underfoot: the width that carves groomers and survives a powder day.
Frontside skis with enough waist to handle whatever the mountain does after lunch. The Thunderbird is a stiff, precise ski for someone who actually skis rather than someone who owns skis. Bindings and a boot fitting matter more than the graphic.
Our rating
4.6 out of 5
Eighty-two millimetres underfoot is the width that carves a groomer and still copes with a foot of fresh, which makes it the one-ski answer for most of Europe. Blizzard's build is excellent. Too narrow for genuine powder days out west.
