An incredibly fun, versatile ski, the Blizzard Sheeva 11 2018 will make a great choice for any ladies wanting to really rip into the mountain with confidence this winter.

Nice and wide with a 112mm waist, you’ll love the feel of the Blizzard Sheeva 11 for big powder days. They are very comfortable charging hard and fast through the soft stuff and will honestly make every other ski you have used in powder pale in comparison. They have a lovely surfy feel that allows you to glide across soft snow and will plant a grin on your face all day.

You can really throw it around anything and everywhere. While the Sheeva 11 is solid and rigid enough to power through any terrain and conquer all conditions, it doesn’t lose any of its lightweight and responsive nature.

Indeed, as a versatile powder option, the Blizzard Sheeva 11 also performs very well on piste. It remains playful and lively, making it a lot of fun, even when the powder runs out!

It loves to fly down the slopes at speed, perfect for those advanced skiers who love the feeling of the wind in their hair and want to get that rush of adrenaline while knowing that they are well supported underfoot.
