Untracked, deep, fluffy powder is the name of the game for the 11 and it's designed to make the most of those memorable days. At 116 millimeters underfoot at the 192 cm length, this ski is meant to float, plane, surf and smear the deepest of snow. And if there is one ski that can handle everything you’ll face at a resort powder day, the Blizzard Rustler 11 is it. The Blizzard Rustler 11 is the widest offering in Blizzard's freeride series line up. While this might seem like a lot of technology to pack into a powder ski, the truth is that most powder mornings usually turn into cruddy afternoons at resorts across the country. The result is a reduction in torsional rigidity that creates a lively and energetic feel in all types of snow, but releases from the turn more easily in deeper snow, providing better powder performance. The key technology feature is the Carbon Flipcore Dynamic Release Technology (D.R.T.), which is a core made from poplar, beech, balsa, and paulownia that is milled in shape of the ski, and then combined with two unidirectional carbon frame inserts in the tip and tail and a shaped layer of Titanal underfoot. The Blizzard Rustler 11 features some minor graphic updates, but is otherwise unchanged from last season. “If you’re forward and ready to work, that is. “Same old story: This is an epic ski,” writes tester Mark Syrovatka. The SKI Test crew was ecstatic about the performance this ski provides to advanced and expert skiers who want the best powder ski for fun in freshies as well as getting to-and-from the chairlift on the hunt for more. Camber underfoot to provide control on compact snow.The Blizzard Rustler 11 won the Deep Snow category for the second year in a row and earned top marks for Quickness/Maneuverability and Playfulness. Progressive Rocker Concept: Increase amount of tip and tail rocker to ensure ideal flotation at all speeds. Modern early rise tail shape that is designed to be playful in softer snow. Slightly more aggressive tip shape to help turn initiation. Shape Concept: Progressive wide body style with an aggressive radius (18-19 m a 180 cm). The iconic Rustler is known for its combination of technical performance and versatility throughout the mountain. Taillierung: 127,5-94-117 (180cm) Radius: 17m (180cm) Bindung: Marker TCX 11 GW (GripWalk ready) Rocker-Camber-Rocker: Stärkerer Rocker am Tip und Tail des Skis gewährleisten einen idealen Auftrieb bei allen Geschwindigkeiten.

Uni-directional carbon fiber is also used in the tip and tail to stabilize the rockered areas of the ski and reduce swing weight.Ĭonstruction: Specifically designed multi-layer woodcore with two layers of carbon fiberglass reinforcement. Another way to characterize how the Rustler 11 differs from the Bodacious is the latter expects a little more from its pilot more speed, more skill, more aggression while the Rustler will happily accept you as you are, warts and all. Technology: A revolutionary rockered ski production process that incorporates a specifically designed piece of Titanal, which reduces the torsional strength of the tip and tail areas of the ski while adding stability and control underfoot. Put simply, the Bodacious is a puncher, and the Rustler 11 is a counter-puncher.
