The little brother from the Hustle Freeride series, with its 94 mm centre width, the ski is a good compromise for those who climb the summit under their own power and then pull their turns in untouched powder.

The Trueblend Free with thoughtfully combined wood types give the ski a soft tip and tail area to facilitate turn initiation and power transmission.

The hard flex zone under the binding of Blizzard Hustle 9 lead to more edge grip and stability on the descent. The Carbon D.R.T. is a blend of carbon fibre and glass fibre and offers better grip, more confidence and more performance without compromising on fun.

Technology

Trueblend Free Woodcore

Perfect Balanced Flex
Blizzard have designed a specific Trueblend Free Woodcore for their freeride / back country category skis. It combines beech and poplar – two wood types that guarantee performance – with paulownia for a lightweight, yet high-performance wood core.
The result: the right flex to cover for all backcountry requirements in a lighter package.

Performance without Compromise
The Trueblend Free Woodcore specifically positions three different densities of wood together to form a woodcore that is specifically designed to optimize the flex of the ski and deliver a smooth and balanced feeling.
This blending of the different densities of wood creates three distinct flex zones; a softer flex zone in the tip and tail areas, that facilitates easy turn initiation and release, a medium flex zone in front of and behind the binding, that helps deliver confidence and control and finally a stiffer flex zone in the center, underneath the binding, that guarantees perfect edge grip and stability.
Trueblend woodcores are designed to provide just the right amount what you need, performance, control, and confidence, to do what you want, when you want anywhere on the mountain.

Carbon D.R.T.

D.R.T. stands for dinamic release technology.
It has proven itself to be the perfect dynamic energy release technology for the freeride/ back country category.
The strength and lightness of carbon fiber ensure:
• lightweight damping
• stability and control

D.R.T. blends carbon fiber with fiberglass to give you better support, more confidence and greater performance without compromising on the fun.
