2025 Blizzard Thunderbird R 13 LTD Skis w/ XCELL 12 Bindings
SKU 8A333200In the world of impeccable stability and unrivaled precision, the Blizzard Thunderbird R13 LTD Skis represent a perfect balance of both attributes. At 68mm underfoot, the Thunderbird R13 is the narrowest ski in the Thunderbird lineup and offers the most agile carving performance out of the series. With a 13-meter turn radius at the 165cm length, the Thunderbird R13 is quite the quick turner—endowing advanced and expert skiers with a slalom-like approach to high speed carving. Its carbon-powered core construction offers an accessible alternative to titanal and makes the Thunderbird R13 a bit more approachable than the R15, resulting in a lighter weight ride that appeals to both expert and advanced skiers alike. A combination of poplar and beech in its core endows this ski with an effortless balance between liveliness and precision, while a full camber profile gives the Thunderbird R13 the boost it needs to transition powerfully from edge-to-edge. Offered in a range of shorter lengths with a shorter turn radius, the Blizzard Thunderbird R13 LTD Skis are an excellent option for aggressive skiers seeking slalom performance on frontside terrain.
