The Völkl Blaze 86 Skis + Vmotion 11 GW Bindings come in hot with an unbeatable combination of light weight and confident performance. Touring ski weight without taking the hit of sloppy and weak downhill performance is the name of the game, and Völkl nails it in the Blaze series. The combination of 3D Radius sidecut, traditional full sidewall construction, and reasonably stiff torsional flex gets it done and makes this a perfect "light" alpine ski choice or quiver of one for those who tour part time.
Tip and Tail Rocker
3D Radius Sidecut – Three radii in one ski shape deliver maximum versatility - long radii at the tip and tail for stability and smoothness, and a short radius in the mid-body allows the skier to switch from long arcs to short turns at will, at any speed. (Dimensions are listed as: tail / center / tip)
Hybrid Multilayer Woodcore – The extra-light hybrid multilayer wood core is a very complex core that is used in the Blaze. Light and very stable poplar and beech woods, individually weighed and selected by weight before gluing, are used in this wood core. In the tip-to-tail construction, the wood extends to the tip of the blade and end, giving them the sophisticated combination of good stability and low weight. In the center of the core, a CNC-milled Isocore area contributes to optimal liveliness and dynamic development. All in all, this design allows the stability of the ski to meet the high demands of a freeride ski, and this at a weight that is only slightly higher than that of a touring ski.
Suspension Tips and Tails – Inserts made of elastic TPU material on the edges of the tip and tail which act like a bumper in wind-blown or tracked snow. Its shock-absorbing elasticity ensures better stability and catch-free float.
Full Sidewall – Direct and strong power transmission with full length sidewalls.
P-Tex 2100
Bindings Do Not Come Mounted to Skis – Always have a certified binding technician mount and adjust your bindings.

Ski boots are all about transfer of power - yours to your skis - and the Atomic Hawx Ultra 110 S GW Ski Boots are all about that. If you've got a narrow foot and ankle and have been floating around in roomy, "average fit" ski boots for years, a couple runs in the Ultra 110 S will produce at least several "aha" moments. The 110 flex is ideal for advanced skiers with slim builds as well as those who spend most of their time exploring off-piste and searching for softer snow. As expected, Atomic's Memory Fit heat molding process does wonders to iron the kinks out of the bootfitting process, as well as widening the boot in the forefoot and midfoot where needed, and the new Mimic Gold liner is the best stock moldable liner to date.
Last: 98 mm – A narrow last suitable for those with narrower than average feet (heat customizable to fit many average width feet).
Memory Fit – Advanced heat-fitting technology creates a fully personalized shell, cuff and liner in minutes. The key is Memolink, Atomic's special additive that improves the moldability and stretch of their plastics. Expansion can be up to 6mm forefoot width and up to 10mm ankle width, resulting in a permanent and complete anatomical fit in minutes. See your bootfitter for details.
Flex: 110 – A medium-stiff flex for solid power and response.
True Flex – Atomic's unique True Flex additive helps PU and Grilamid shells maintain a consistent flex and feel in a wide variety of temperatures.
Mimic Gold Liner – Atomic's Mimic liners mold remarkably to both the foot and the interior of the boot shell for the utmost in fit and less liner-boot movement.
Cuff – Polyurethane
Shell – True Flex Polyurethane
Prolite – Instead of starting with a standard construction and cutting material away to save weight, Prolite does the opposite. It starts with the slimmest possible profile and then builds up reinforcements in key areas where strength is needed - like the Energy Backbone down each boot spine.
2nd Power Shift Screw – Insert the additional screw to stiffen the flex as needed
Forward Lean – 15˚
Power Shift – Forward lean can be quickly adjusted to 13°, 15° (default) or 17° as well as the flex index by +/- 10 flex points.
