Designed for women who want a touring ski that feels intuitive on the climb and rock-solid on the descent, this ski blends new-school construction with a calm, predictable ride. From remote couloirs and no-fall-zone traverses to before-work fitness laps, the Zero G 96 W sets a higher standard for balance, stability, and enjoyment on every mission. Blizzard reimagined their touring platform with a lighter, more progressive core, dialing down carbon and dialing up wood to create a ski that feels grounded without weighing you down. It’s agile where it needs to be, strong where it matters, and welcoming to both advancing and expert backcountry skiers alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp data-start=\"936\"
