Never worry about skiing conditions again. The Magnum 8.7 IQ-MAX can handle anything. This remarkably versatile ski employs a sturdy construction for those who want to explore the off-piste on their favorite mountain, if it‘s powder, tracked or even groomed. The Sidewall Construction is seamlessly merged into Blizzard’s unique brand-new IQ-MAX System. The Powerframe Technology and development of the 3D suspension control allows the ski to flex smoothly in all snow conditions. The result is reliability with power and edge grip.
