Overview

To cut to the chase: The Blaze 114 is as wide as its range of use. In addition, it is also produced in an environmentally friendly way. Völkl uses a recycled base and only FSC-certified wood in combination with the new Green Core technology. The Isocore inside the wood core is made of recycled PET bottles instead of the conventional PU foam. When it comes to riding performance, the Blaze 114 is destined for off-piste adventures. Thanks to its efficient weight-performance ratio, it is also quite suitable as a freeride touring ski. But it really comes to life on the downhill. The rather narrow 18 m radius in relation to a ski length of 192 cm delivers a maneuverability previously unknown in this category. This is additionally supported by an open radius both at the shovel and at the tail combined with tip & tail rocker. To enable smooth running at high speeds, a 0.3 mm thin titanal sheet was added to the 3D Radius Sidecut in the center of the ski right above the sidewall. Thus, the ski can be controlled with great precision - you will notice this in every turn initiation. By the way, these riding characteristics also work really well on the occasional on-slope rides too! To keep the all-mountain ski as agile as possible, no titanal is used in the outer areas front and rear. The Blaze is designed with increasing flex in relation to the length of the ski, so that larger or heavier riders benefit from the same driving characteristics as the smaller or lighter riders with shorter ski lengths.

3D Radius Sidecut:

Three radii in one ski for maximum TURNING & SPEED VERSATILITY IN ALL MOUNTAIN SKIING LONG TIP & TAIL RADIUS Usage of long radii at tip and tail for big turns and high speed // easy steering and maneuverability // disruption resistant at the tip // no radius limitation and ease of turn exit TIGHT CENTER RADIUS Usage of shorter radius in the center for short turns and lower speed // extremely easy to initiate short turns // strikingly agile // effortless and smooth in short turns

Base P-Tex 2100:

A sintered high-density and high molecular polyethylene base with great gliding characteristics and high durability

Full Sidewall:

Direct and strong powertransmission with full length sidewalls.

Green Core:

// All GreenCore woods are FSC certified // Environmentally friendly glue // Foam: recycled PET

Multilayer Woodcore 1:

The side wall is laminated to extremely stable layers of wood on the sides of the sandwich core. In combination with a more flexible, lighter wood built into the center of the sandwich core construction provides numerous advantages: The hardwood part immediately adjacent to the sidewall effects a higher power transmission, improves the edge grip and supports the edge against external forces. The low weight of the softwood part in the middle of the ski brings more agility and maneuverability and reduces overall ski weight. The combination of both wood types running through the entire ski length contributes to an optimal distribution of the ski stiffness increasing the steering precision. It is the first and only sidewall/core technology intended for aggressive on-piste and racing use and capable of delivering the victory and defeat, even if it is measured in hundredths of seconds.

Suspension Tips & 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.

Tip & Tail Rocker:

Character: Bends up only in the shovel and tail zones, with a camber shape in the middle

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 offer reliable hold even in the toughest conditions.

Woodcore:

Special PU construction with a wooden core in the ski body.
