The Curated Take
By the Expert Community
I purchased this ski for on piste carving during icy and hardpack days that happen in early/late season out west and most days on the east coast. For this job, it excels like no other. I was inspired to get low and really put weight the skis for deep carves. The skis are heavy and stiff- they want to go fast and hard. They can ski at slower speeds but where they shine is on the top end.
I have skied them on some 1-2" powder days and they do just fine charging through mixed snow conditions. However, these are not powder skis and are built for when the snow isn't flying.
Ideal for
- Stability at speed is unmatched
- Carving longer turns is where this ski shines
- Great pop out of turns with a stiff metal construction
Not ideal for
- This ski does not perform best at slower speeds. It wants to go fast.
- Not designed for off piste skiing as it is narrow underfoot with minimal rocker
The Blizzard Brahma 82 Skis are the perfect choice for skiers who want a versatile ski that can handle any terrain. With a strong and easygoing character, these skis are designed to give you confidence on hard or soft snow. The Flipcore design and Trueblend woodcore provide stability and control, so you can rip or cruise wherever your skis take you.
Key Features:
- Flipcore design provides stability and control on any terrain.
- Trueblend woodcore enhances durability and performance.
- Versatile ski that can handle hard or soft snow with ease.

Great all around ski
Posted on Aug 29, 2023These skis are truly all mountain and even performed well in fresh New England powder this past March. There is some softness and chatter when running them hard on firm surfaces which is to be expected. Definitely recommend them for all around skiing!

First Pair Of Skis & Love Them
Originally posted at www.blizzard-tecnica.com on Jan 3, 2023I used to ski fairly frequently when I was younger. I then took a period of roughly 10years off of not skiing at all. I bought these skis last season and set off. I immediately picked everything back up and skied better then I ever have before using these skis. They are fast and powerful and I feel so comfortable using them. I absolutely love them and cannot wait to get back on the mountain again this year.

Amazing service!

Vincent done did it again! Had a friend refer me and boy was it the best decision ever. Vincent was very knowledgeable and definitely catered to my needs. He didn’t send the most expensive bindings and hoped for the best. I told what I was looking for and delivered. Not one or two options but many options. I definitely recommend him as your expert!

5 /5
Kyle was extremely helpful and patient in guiding me through the shopping experience. He sent me multiple videos reviewing snowboards, boots, and bindings based on my needs. He was open to feedback and questions, and ensured that I made the best choice for my needs. I'd highly recommend Kyle for anyone looking for a friendly expert to guide them through buying their snow gear!

I had insomnia that night and found the Curated for the first time. I was curious about contacting an expert who turned out to be Andrew at 4 AM PST. I expected to get an answer a few hours later since it was in the middle of the night. I turned off my computer and went into bed he responded a few minutes later. Hopefully, I didn't wake him up, or maybe he's on EST time but either way, he's on his game.

5 /5
I had many questions, and after a few days we finally got stuff figured out. Throughout the whole process he was very helpful and knowledgeable which is defiantly better then going to facebook marketplace. I tried that, but the information from an expert just helps much more. I would defiantly recommend Ryan to other customers.

5 /5
I very much enjoyed working with Leo on my ski purchase. I had done some research on my own but had not settled on a particular ski. I came across Curated by accident and did not know I would be connected to a live person - and someone who is quite knowledgeable as well! Leo listened to what I was looking for and put together some recommendations personalized for me. I was able to review these on my own schedule and later discuss my questions with Leo to finalize my selection. I’ll definitely recommend Leo and Curated to friends and will be back for my next pair of skis!

Leo’s not a robot!
5 /5
I was super skeptical of this website at first I assumed the suggestions were just from an AI generated bot, but Leo is definitely a real human and a knowledgeable one at that! He knew the area i ski in maine and made suggestions based off my skill level and northeast conditions. Can’t wait to take my new gear out in a few months!

I wanted to talk about how happy I am with my experience here at Curated and with my expert Bernard. Bernard was very helpful and knowledgeable about the equipment I was looking for, and provided different ideas on how I can make my skiing experience even more enjoyable! Bernard really is an amazing Ski Expert and I will definitely buy new gear from him from now on! Thanks Bernard!

Having some experience snowboarding but never owning my own equipment, I had lots of questions and needed a lot of help. I’m so glad I found curated and Josh! He was able to educate me and guide me through the process…and made sure I got a super deal. He always responded promptly and was patient with my never ending questions. All the gear is perfect, we can’t wait to hit the mountain!
