Product not eligible for returnThe Bonafide 97 Dark Blue/ Red 2023 is a all-mountain freeride ski for men from Blizzard.
Blizzard's iconic model, the Bonafide stands out for its versatility, nimbleness and agility!
The Bonafide 97 is perfect for good skiers who are looking for a freeride ski with reasonable sidecut to maintain good behaviour on the piste. All of Blizzard's most advanced technologies are available for this ski. The combination of the Carbon Flipcore technology (unidirectional carbon fibre in tip and heel) combined with two titanium plates and a very strong wood core (TrueBlend Flipcore), make this Bonafide invincible. In addition, the denser wood in the waist and the softer wood in the tip and tail will allow you to push it to its limits and combine speed and manoeuvrability.
The Bonafide 97 is a ski that stands out for its performance and alpine character with a flatter heel than the skis in the Rustler range. This gives it more heel presence, better attack and superior rebound. Its shorter radius than its big brother the makes it more manoeuvrable which can be interesting in the forest or narrow freeride lines
In short, the Bonafide 97 is a ski for good and very good skiers, it is versatile and will allow you to ski in an intense way whether on piste or freeride, in all conditions

Shape and construction :
Sidewall Construction:
Integrated partial sidewall to ensure better energy transfer, along with precision and stability from the structure. Straight edges along the whole ski
The result: torsional rigidity created by the integrated side edges which improves ski performance.
Rocker Camber Rocker:
The traditional camber profile distributes pressure evenly and gradually from the tip to the heel, maximizing edge retention throughout the turn
Result: you can press down on the skis to feel the edges and the power of the ski unfolding
Dura-Tec:
The aluminium tip protectors, the thick, textured cosmetic material and the rounded shape of the upper edges contribute to the durability of your skis
The result: all these protections are present to prolong the life of your ski
Carbon Flipcore:
The multidirectional carbon fibre produces a stabilising effect at the tip and heel. This fibre is strategically placed for a predictable, stable and docile ski
Result: the use of carbon at the tip and heel stabilises the ski's camber and reduces vibrations.
Core structure:
Poplar - Beech + Titanal plates + Carbon
Le Bonafide de Blizzard est une arme de freeride sur toutes les neiges. Avec son caractère beaucoup plus alpin que les skis de la gamme Rustler chez Blizzard, il conviendra bien à ceux qui recherchent avant tout de la stabilité et de la puissance sous le pied. Rigide, c'est un véritable char d'assaut lorsque vous rencontrez des neiges difficiles. Il flotte parfaitement en poudreuse et carver sur piste est complètement envisageable. Il faudra cependant avoir une bonne condition physique et un bon niveau technique pour tirer le maximum de ce ski.
Les plus: Sacrément stable, puissant, performant
Les moins: Forcément, ce n'est pas le ski le plus joueur
