The Blaze 104 is a light, agile powder ski that is constructed with maneuverability in mind. Filip Pagowski’s unique design for the ski was inspired by the idea of strong traction, similar to an all-terrain tire imprint. By integrating the Völkl logo throughout the ski, he created a visual representation that complements the ski’s identity as a confident freeride companion in untouched snow. The thin Titanal Binding Platform underfoot harnesses power with little effort, creating an incredibly enjoyable and dynamic turning experience, immediately from initiation. In narrow terrain and/or rough conditions their reaction time is impressive, especially for a powder-width ski. Their full length Hybrid Multilayer Woodcore / Green Core and overall design target short-turn-oriented skiers, but the sidecut’s 4 radius drive sidecut technology adapts to most every riding style. In addition to ripping around the resort, the Blaze 104’s also transition into capable freeride touring skis because of their lightweight, yet powerful nature. With the addition of the Suspension Tip, a rubbery, shock-absorbing material on the tip and tail edges, the Blaze 104 rides high through pow, crud and wind buffed snow with playful power.
Hybrid MultiLayer Woodcore 1: A blend of poplar and beech giving natural liveliness and a platform to build on.
Green Core: All GreenCore woods are FSC certified, use Environmentally friendly glue and Foam that is recycled PET.
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.
Titanal Binding Platform: A thin Titanal layer (0,3 mm) under the binding delivers the necessary strength to the ski. This way the binding screws.
4 Radius Drive: A Völkl innovation not yet offered by any other manufacturer. With this technology, Völkl sets a new benchmark for the ability to vary the turn radius and combine easy handling with rock-solid stability. This new design provides maximum versatility for various snow conditions both on piste and off piste, increased stability on hard surfaces, and improved performance on soft snow.
Radius 1: Approx. 20 m in the frontmost 10 centimeters. A tighter radius only in the shovel to achieve a more immediate response to the skier‘s initial edge movement; maximum precision and agility.
Radius 2: Approx. 40 m in the area between the shovel and the binding. The open radius in the front part of the ski gives the ski more resistance to disturbances and stability at speed.
Radius 3: Approx. 15 m in the area under the binding. The tight radius in the camber area provides the ski with more agility even with slight edge movements of the skier, ensuring the necessary buildup of dynamics for short turns and radical carving curves.
Radius 4: Approx. 25 meters in the area behind the binding up to the ski end. The moderate radius at the ski end ensures controlled and situation-adapted dynamics at the end of the turn and provides optimal support for transitioning into the next curve.
3D Ridge: Central Woodcore Ridge with superslim wings to significantly reduce weight and swing weight and keep the stability where necessary. Our 3D.Ridge technology - is probably the most extreme and effective construction technique that currently exists. It has become a symbol of VÖLKL lightweight construction. The distinctive characteristic of this technology is a raised central ridge that sharply levels out towards the edges, both in front of and behind the binding.
Full Sidewall: Direct and strong power transmission with full length sidewalls.
Tip & Tail Rocker: Rocker, camber, rocker profile
P-Tex 2100 Base: A sintered high-density and high molecular polyethylene base with great gliding characteristics and high durability
