Tech Specs
Blizzard Canvas 108 Ski
The Blizzard Canvas 108 is the middle width in the Canvas freeski line and the one that suits most skiers across most winters. A 139-108-127 mm shape with a rockered tip and tail floats soft snow and stays quick in trees, while camber underfoot keeps an edge available when the same run firms up by afternoon. At 1,890 g per ski at 180 cm on poplar and paulownia with no metal in the layup, it is light for its width and built to be thrown around rather than driven.

Why We Like It
- At 108 mm underfoot with a 139 mm shovel it floats soft snow properly while staying narrow enough to be quick edge to edge.
- A 16 m radius at 168 cm is short for a 108 mm ski, which is what keeps it manoeuvrable in trees rather than only useful on open faces.
- Light Sandwich Full Sidewall over poplar and paulownia holds it to 1,890 g per ski at 180 cm, light for the width and only 90 g over the narrower Canvas 100.
- The length run reaches 192 cm, the longest in the Canvas line, so bigger skiers are not forced onto the 118.
Best Uses
- Soft snow days across the whole mountain
- Trees, pillows and natural features
- One-ski resort quivers in a soft-snow winter
- Skiers who butter and ride switch
Ski Selection Advice
The Canvas 108 runs 168 to 192 cm on a 16 m to 20 m radius, so there is a genuine spread of turn shapes in the size run. Sidecut is quoted at 180 cm. Skiers who want the playful character should size at or below their usual length, and skiers who open it up should take the 186 or 192.
There is no titanal in this ski. In chop it will move around more than an Anomaly of similar width, which is the trade for weight and liveliness. Brakes need to clear the 108 mm waist, so 110 mm is the usual stock size.

The Blizzard Anomaly 102 runs two sheets of titanal on a Trueblend core, so it damps chop and grips firm snow harder while being heavier and more demanding. The Canvas 108 is wider, lighter and more playful. Firm-snow skiers take the Anomaly.
