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.

The Atomic Hawx Prime 100 Ski Boots provide all the best features of Atomic's top end boots - Memory Fit heat molding technology and lightweight Prolite construction - in a smooth medium flex just right for intermediate skiers stepping out into bigger terrain. Lightweight construction means you can wear them all day without boot fatigue setting in, and the straightforward heat molding process allows for extensive customization in one easy appointment with your bootfitter.
Last: 100 mm – Designed for average width feet with average and slightly taller insteps.
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: 100 – A medium flex for balanced power and response.
Memory Fit 3D Gold Liner – Features Asymmetric Liner Construction with an asym tongue, toe box, collar shape and high-quality lining materials.
3M™ Thinsulate™ Insulation – Keeps feet warm and responsive even in extremely cold and damp conditions.
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.
Energy Backbone – A reinforced, asymmetric backbone providing extra strength for powerful skiing plus enhanced lateral energy transmission for better edge grip.
