Super Blackops Open 2025: The Freeride Race Ski Packing All-Mountain Punch
Hey there, fellow powder hounds! If you're yearning for a ski that can tear through the entire mountain while offering race-like precision, your heart might just skip a beat for the new Super Blackops Open 2025. This beauty isn't just another piece of gear; it's a canvas for mountain mastery—a tool to carve out your best days on the mountain. Born for the freerider with a need for speed, yet built to conquer all-mountain conditions, this ski is much more than meets the eye.
Spotlight the feeling of being on these boards: blistering speed meets suave control, all wrapped in a playful spirit. So let's dive in, shall we?
Design & Build
At first glance, the Super Blackops Open screams performance. Get ready for some ski tech talk, but don't worry—I'll keep it straight. This ski boasts a twin rocker shape for slick pivots, drifting with ease in the powder and slushing through trees. Confident camber underfoot ensures it grips when you’re bombing down the groomers. The heart of this beast, a lively PEFC™ poplar wood core, delivers both pop and stability. It's this core that makes the ski nimble yet solid, chatty on the bump, but always ready to settle into a firm rhythm.
And, let's talk edges—Rectangular Full Sidewall construction gets you precise power transfer and grips with race-inspired ferocity. Perfect for when the mountain calls for power, precision, and panache.
Performance on Snow
So how do these skis fare when it’s time to dance in the mountains? Let’s break it down.
Groomers
Ah, the thrill of a fast fall-line descent. On the groomers, these skis shine. They dig in, hold an edge with conviction, and when you're ready to release, they pop out of turns with gusto. A real joy for those blanketed corduroy mornings.
Powder
While not exclusively a powder tool, the Super Blackops Open feels surprisingly at home when the snow gods deliver a fluffy gift. Twin rockers allow them to surf the snow with grace, making the skis agile and buoyant when you're searching for freshies.
Trees
Tight tree runs are where these skis show their freeride roots. Pivot smoothly, slash with precision—these skis respond to your every whisper and whim. They're the sherpa to your off-piste explorations.
Bumps
Although designed for bigger arcs, they handle bumps with relative ease. Not their primary playground, but if you're on a groomer and meet an unexpected field of moguls, they offer stability and won't misbehave.
Pros:
- Versatile across conditions
- Stable at high speeds
- Great edge hold
Cons:
- Not the best pure powder ski
- Could feel stiff for softer snow enthusiasts
Who It’s For
These skis aren't for the faint-hearted. They're for the skier who wants it all—a freeride spirit with a race pedigree. If high-speed carving and off-piste exploration are your game, then these could be your ultimate companion. Not for the first-timers, but if you classify yourself as an intermediate looking to embrace more demanding terrain, you'll likely find a renewed passion with these underfoot.
