General Comments/Likes

The Blizzard Bonafide is perhaps the most fun and versatile ski ever made. Magic is the only explanation for the Bonafides ability to turn a 98mm western monster into a GS machine on Eastern ice. Once I hopped on the Bonafide I threw out my GS skis (not 100% true, but I hardly ever use them anymore). Plus, who wants to go up to the mountain with 2 pairs of skis and ski off trail in the morning and groomers in the afternoon? I sure as hell don't...I want a ski that crushes hard down Silver Fox then slices up Lower Chips all in the same tram lap. From the Snowfields of Sugarloaf to doubling up on Hanging Bowl at the Bird, I want the Bonafides on my feet. If you ski, you need to have these skis.
