Description

The Black Pearl 78 is the narrowest all-mountain ski offered by Blizzard for that 2020 season. Dynamic and will help you to improve your skills. It is a playful ski with a good grip on hard snow that also allows you to discover the side of the pistes as well.   

What is the programme of the Blizzard Black Pearl 78?   

The Black Pearl 78 is made of a wood core and a carbon reinforcement, which offers a great ratio between weight and performance. Indeed, those skis are not too tiring, and will not burn your legs after a piste or two. They are easy to maneuver, whether you want to do short or long turns. The classic camber provides the skis with a good grip on hard snow, and the 78mm waist makes it easier to enjoy the side of the pistes and light powder. Indeed, those skis are very agile on the tracks, and when it has been snowing or in mixed conditions (at the end of the day, for example) they will be easier to maneuver compared to standard piste skis thanks to the rockers.   

Who is the Blizzard Black Pearl 78 for?   

The black pearl 78 is an excellent choice for a woman who spends most of her time on piste but also likes to go on the side of the pistes or want to discover the pleasure of it. It is an easy but very energic ski to ride, offering room for improvement.

Tips and advice

On glisshop.co.uk, you may feel overwhelmed by the amount of products we sell. How can you find the right skis, which ones can suit your level, your style or your budget?

Your options: 

1. The advanced search engine: You'll find it everywhere on our website, as a sidebar on our listing pages. It allows you to select conditions and refine your selection: brand, level, style, etc. When you select them, only the relevant products will show. 

2. You can contact us on the 020 3129 3301: skis feature fine technologies and affect your safety. It is important to make sure that the skis you've selected will suit you. Call our landline and get in touch with our team for any questions regarding these products. 

During the process or your order, we'll ask you to complete a form about the mounting of your bindings. With these details, we will be able to mount the bindings with the correct settings. The release value of the bindings is set by a professional skiman, and according to the norm AFNOR FD S 52-748.

If you don't have your own ski boots when you order, the bindings will be pre-mounted. The final settings can be done :

- by a shop if you are renting your ski boots

- by our skiman : you can call us for any technical questions. Our skiman will do the final settings for you. Telephone : 020 3129 3301

All skis you purchase on our website are factory-waxed and tuned. This means they are ready to hit the slopes. However, gear tends to wear and in order to keep it in its best shape, you need to maintain base and edges on a regular basis.

Maintaining your skis is essential for a smooth glide and a solit grip. Frequency of maintenance may vary depending on how often you use your skis, or on how damaged they are. We recommend you to wax them every 10 riding days and at the end of the season. Edges need to be tuned up to 2 times per season if you want to keep a good edge control. However, don't overdo it. Tuning is basically scraping off material. If you do it too often, the edges will vanish after some time.

When your base is damaged and shows shallow scratches or rock gouge, it is possible to repair it.

You can get these repairs done by professional ski shop, or if the gouge is only superficial you may repair it yourself. To do so, you will need special tools and materials such as wax, Ptex for repairing bases, edge sharpeners, etc. You can find them on our website.

All products benefit from a manufacturer guarantee, as long as the damage is caused by a manufacturing defect (may it be hidden or obvious).

Usually, the manufacturer guarantee lasts two years.

Only the manufacturer is able to decide if there has been a 'manufacturing defect' or a 'misuse'. Glisshop is only an intermediary between you and the manufacturer.

The manufacturer's guarantee will not apply if the problem comes from a misuse.
