2026 Blizzard Black Pearl 94 Women's Skis with Tyrolia Attack LYT 11 GW Bindings

The Black Pearl 94 with Marker Squire 11 Bindings extends the playful character of the new ‘25 Black Pearl lineup to a wider platform, offering off-piste skiers a reliable and versatile option for their adventures. With a longer turn radius and slightly more taper in the tip and tail compared to its narrower counterparts, this highly maneuverable ski allows skiers to slash and smear their way down the mountain. Enhanced by three strips of longitudinal Titanal, the Black Pearl 94 provides excellent stability at high speeds and carves exceptionally well for its width. Marker’s Triple Pivot Light 2 Toe and Hollow Linkage Heel systems work in tandem to provide powerful energy transmission to the ski, allowing for maximum edge grip and control of the ski. Lighter weight skiers can rest easy knowing the Squire 11 will be easier than ever to step into thanks to a re-designed heel piece. Perhaps the most underappreciated feature of the Squire 11 is the anti-ice rail, which sits on top of the toepiece and can be used to scrape the sole of your boots clean before stepping in.

Why we like it:

If you’re in search of an all-mountain daily driver and are unsure where to start, the Black Pearl 94 is a solid choice that won’t disappoint.

Who it's for:

Advancing intermediates to experts who enjoy skiing everywhere will find the Black Pearl 94 a blast. It offers an accessible feel with easy turn initiation, yet responds with power and energy when pushed. Its width makes it ideal as a versatile quiver of one, providing ample surface area for float in deeper snow while maintaining the agility to handle bumps and the grip needed for groomers.

Highlights:

The Black Pearl 94’s width, combined with an updated construction, makes it one of the most versatile all-mountain skis available for women. Though only 3 mm narrower than its predecessor, this slight adjustment results in a noticeably quicker edge-to-edge transition. Blizzard has enhanced this quickness by adding more camber underfoot, creating a lively and fun ski. Coupled with a robust Poplar and Beech Trueblend wood core, the Black Pearl 94 is a balanced, energetic, and intuitive ski tailored for advanced female skiers. Marker’s Triple Pivot Light 2 Toe and Hollow Linkage Heel systems work in tandem to provide powerful energy transmission to the ski, allowing for maximum edge grip and control of the ski. Lighter weight skiers can rest easy knowing the Squire 11 will be easier than ever to step into thanks to a re-designed heel piece. Perhaps the most underappreciated feature of the Squire 11 is the anti-ice rail, which sits on top of the toepiece and can be used to scrape the sole of your boots clean before stepping in.

Things to consider:

While the Black Pearl lineup is known for its reliability and versatility, skiers with a more creative style may prefer a ski that requires a less directional approach and offers more freedom for creative expression.
