Breaking the Stigma
whillips: 
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!

Im 154 lbs, 5'6" and these are the first ever fatty skis Ive ridden on. Day one was somewhat of a learning curve for me but day two I figured em out and was in total bliss. Short turns work in the pow but these guys like long arcing turns at seriously high speeds. Pretend you're a pro with these.
these skiis suck.....NNNOT

i just ripped on these for 3 days at alta with GREAT SUCCESS! day one had plenty of powder 10"++ and packed stuff. They rip. day two i spent in the trees they ripped on the hard pack and in the steeps. it was bumped out but these babies are quick, stable, and responsive. day three was 50 degrees, and they ripped on the cement like morning snow, they ripped on the groomers, the ripped on the afternon softies, and they ripped on the remaiining pow stashes i found. did i mention they ripped? i've never been on a ski that felt like the entire edge was engaged at all times. the things are so well balanced, it is sick. the marker binding is an added bonus when heading out the gate for a hike to a pow stash, but forget the fact that it's a touring binding - the integrated channel on the titan makes it feel like the whole ski is mounted to your boot, not just the binding.
