The ski in details
Skiing requires a certain amount of trust in your equipment. The Thunderbird R13 LTD, with its Trueblend Piste woodcore and Active Carbon Armor vibration damping system, is designed to give you that trust and confidence to carve turns as fast as you dare on any groomed slope.
Technologies

- Alu frame: The external Titanal is extended to the very edge of the ski absorbs all impacts that occur along the top edge which reduces scratching and eliminates chipping.
TRUEBLEND PISTE WOODCORE
PERFECT BALANCED FLEX
Two different types of wood specifically blended into one woodcore. The different density stringers are customized in quantity and length creating 3 different areas of density to precisely control the flex.
ACCESSIBLE PERFORMANCE
The Trueblend Piste Woodcore is designed with a harder flex zone in the center, that provides stability and edge grip, a medium flex zone in front of and behind the binding that provides control, and a soft flex zone in the tip and tail that provides easy turn initiation and release. Trueblend technology allows to precisely control the flex throughout the whole length of the ski and in every size.
2 Ti CONSTRUCTION
Blizzard's double Ti constrruction is time tested and now improved as it is blended with progressive material concepts to ensure your performance on demand is met with precise edge grip, a responsive round flex and excellent stability and control at any speed.
ACTIVE CARBON ARMOR
PERFORMANCE EFFICIENCY
Active Carbon Armor is a vibration damping and rebound control system that is located under the binding. Inspired by the carbon armor from the Firebird collection, the carbon fiber plate is brought outside of the ski body which allows it to flex freely. In this way the ski turns out to be less demanding while still providing a very high level of performance.
INNOVATIVE AND VISIBLE TECHNOLOGY
Active Carbon Armor provides both vibration damping and enhanced rebound and acceleration without effecting the progressive flex of the ski.
