Blister Best of 2425

Ideal for anyone who enjoys high-speed skiing with confidence, the award-winning Optic 96 represents a versatile daily driver complete with our Gas Pedal Metal Overdive™ tech. With a chevron shape of Titanal underfoot that expands into the forebody and rear of the ski, you'll experience immense edge grip on hard snow, with a powerful, smooth ride in cut-up snow and chop.  

5CUT™ Multi-Radius Sidecut:

5 cut

FIVE different radiuses are blended into the ski’s sidecut. The result? A wide variety of turn shapes and an intuitive feel.

Gas Pedal Metal:

Titanal focused across the ski width provides increased edge grip and torsional stability while maintaining a lively feel along the length of the ski. Two independent tip and tail Titanal pieces add extra power and energy. 

Overdrive™:

tech icon overdrive

Titanal focused vertically throughout the ski, extending throughout the tip and tail designed to add stability, power, and precision.

EARLY RISE:

early rise

The tip and tail lift away from the snow to bring the contact points closer to the center of the ski. This increases a ski's lift in deep snow and allows it to engage more quickly on hardpack when rolled over on edge. 

SIDEWALL CONSTRUCTION:

Ultra-High Density Polyethylene vertical walls over the edges absorb vibrations and provide powerful energy transmission.

ASPEN VENEER CORE:

An amalgam of Aspen Stringers brought together for a lightweight, snappy, and engaged feel.

DIRECTIONAL FLEX:

The softer tip floats & initiates turns easily while the stiffer tail provides power, stability & high speed control.

FATTY BASE & EDGE™:
