The read

Rated for advanced skiers, the Blaze 94 Black is a freeride ski built for mixed snow, touring, backcountry, and groomers. Its waist sits narrower than most freeride skis in the catalog, and its four-radius sidecut with a short-turn bias makes it notably quick and nimble for the category. A titanal binding platform and rocker-camber-rocker profile pair with a light, lively build that rewards an engaged skier seeking versatility across varied terrain.

Specs & what they mean

What the Blaze 94 Black's numbers add up to, as a model — the three things that define how it skis.

Turn & shape

This sidecut layers several radii along the edge, shifting from shorter turns at lower speed to longer, steadier arcs as it's driven harder.

Stability & dampness

A titanal platform under the binding adds mount strength and power transfer — without the weight of a full sheet. At 1,603 g it stays maneuverable underfoot.

Float & width

At 94 mm it's a balanced all-mountain width — real float for soft snow without giving up much hardpack quickness. Rocker at tip and tail lets it smear and release easily, while the camber underfoot keeps an edge.
