Gone are the days of Brahma, Bonafide and Cochise. In comes the new Blizzard Anomaly series for your high performance All Mountain needs.
The Anomaly 88 is our pick for the best balance of All Mountain characteristics for Advanced to Expert skiers. These things are a little easier to manage than the outgoing Brahmas, but let’s be fair, they needed to be. Within the Anomaly are 2 sheets of metal and a hefty amount of power, but gone is the ultra demanding tail shape that made the Brahma quite cumbersome.
The construction of the ski is an all new concept in ski design. The Metal reinforcement is split over different levels, allowing them fine tuned control of the flex pattern of the ski. This paired with the True Blend core, that allows even more fine tuning, gives Blizzard a ton of customisation and tuning of each ski they build to the intended performance.
We skied this in La Clusaz in Jan 2024 and were incredibly relieved. Its got a ton of power and is completely locked in on piste but can still be manoeuvred by a good skier in off piste conditions.
Who’s it for?
The Anomaly series still cater to Advanced to Expert level skiers and it is far on the heavy & strong side of the spectrum. Those looking for an easy going playful ski should avert their eyes now.
Why we love it?
The Anomaly 88 is incredibly well balanced. It covers piste performance with a strong stiff construction but can be skied hard all over the mountain. It is the new reference ski for Australian All Mountain conditions. Blizzard is Back baby!
