The Blaze 86 builds on what the other models are known for: lightness, versatility and agility. Without Titanal, it feels more lively and slightly lighter. Designed for quick, tight turns, its multi‑radius sidecut also handles steeper terrain, higher speeds and longer arcs with ease. Suspension tips and tails provide stability, add flotation and increase protection off‑piste.

A modern, sustainability‑focused construction enhances its performance: bio‑based resin lowers environmental impact, flax‑carbon elements improve damping and smoothness, an FSC wood core increases stability, and multidirectional glass layers boost responsiveness — all while contributing to a reduced CO₂ footprint.

The Blaze 86 is also a strong option for ski touring, offering excellent downhill performance at minimal weight. With its lightweight full wood core, it climbs efficiently and provides an intuitive, playful feel on the descent, except in very deep snow.
