2025 Blizzard Phoenix R14 Pro Womens Skis W/ TPX12 Bindings
Based on the input of legendary women across the industry, Blizzard created the Phoenix R14 Pro, a frontside charger that caters to the demands of advanced lady rippers. Born from Blizzard’s race-proven TrueBlend wood core, the Phoenix R14 Pro exemplifies what it means to be powerful, precise, and stable, utilizing Beech and Poplar to create a tailored flex that’s responsive and energetic. Coupled with two sheets of Titanal for added grip and stability, the Phoenix R14 Pro is a ski designed for high performance, high speeds, and high edge angles.
Why we like it:
The Phoenix R14 Pro blends strength and responsiveness in a reliable and predictable and stable package.
Who it's for:
High speed recreational racers will love the performance and responsiveness of the Phoenix R14 Pro. If you like versatility in your turn shapes, the Phoenix R14 Pro will deliver, making short and long radius turns with equal ease. If you’re looking for a racy frontside performer, the Phoenix R14 Pro is the ticket.
Highlights:
Blizzard has taken their best race-proven tech and incorporated it into the Phoenix lineup for women. The Trueblend Piste wood core blends Beech and Poplar to create a very specific flex pattern in the ski, giving it the ski dampness and predictability, while Active Carbon Armor provides strength and energy to give the ski a boost out of the turn. Two sheets of Titanal laminate increase torsional stiffness, but don't be intimidated by all this power – the Phoenix remains just forgiving enough that it’s approachable for more than just ex-racers.
Things to consider:
The Phoenix is a true frontside ski and wants to stick to the groomers; as such, skiers who like to carve but also venture beyond the corduroy will prefer something a little wider and more all-mountain friendly. The full camber of this ski means that it wants to hook up right away and finish the turn, so it’s not the best option for soft snow, bumps, or trees.
Fit & sizing considerations:
Skis true to size. However, since it is a frontside carving ski, you may want to size down slightly compared to a typical all-mountain or freeride ski.
