The Blizzard Kabookie is a ski that will make a great touring ski, or a great inbounds ski for the lighter weight skier. At 98 mm at the waist the Kabookie is quick to make its way up the switchbacks on the skin track while you still have the girth to float in the good stuff on the way down. At 1800 grams per pair (@173cm) the Kabookie can be tossed in your backpack or on your shoulder with hardly a thought. Blizzards Flipcore 3D has a natural rocker to it so the wood is not bent or broken to add the rocker shape. Vertical sidewalls give the Kabookie some toughness and better edge grip if you are hitting a pre-dawn assault on a firm couloir. A few bamboo stringers in the core make the ski light and lively while still being strong. If you are looking for a ski that will excel in all aspects of the backcountry, and still be a good ski for light days inside the ropes, the Blizzard Kabookie will be waiting for you at the summit.
