Blizzard Titan Argos IQ Max Ski w/ Slider Plate
Breaking the Stigma
By Wally Phillips

Reverse camber skis, twin tip skis, race skis and mid-fat skis. Seeing a pattern here? It is the niche ski and it has taken over a lot of the ski market.
Enter the Titan Argos from Blizzard, a ski that actually fits a term that the ski industry has been trying to accomplish for years: an excellent all-around conditions ski.
Like to carve GS to long slalom arcs on groomed? no problem. A good side cut with a softer straight flex, but a stiff torsional flex takes care of that.
What about floating in the pow (2 feet plus) or busting the crud? With near massive dimensions and a bit of an upturned tip, tracked or untracked powder is a blast!
Not a resort skier? Not a problem. This sucker comes with the Blizzard IQ FR16, which is basically a Marker Duke binding, one of the best downhill performing touring bindings in the business!
Overall, want to buy a TON of skis to do everything on the hill. That's fine, but you can buy JUST THIS SETUP and do everything on the hill!
