The Blizzard Hustle 11 is a playful freeride ski built for riders who want versatility across varied terrain. With a 101 mm-plus waist and a design aimed at exploring both powder and harder snow, it’s a solid choice for skiers who like to mix big turns with quick manoeuvres.
Shaped at 142/114/132 mm, the tip and tail deliver good float in soft snow, while the narrower waist keeps edge-to-edge transitions snappy. The flat mounting plate allows you to choose and position bindings exactly where you prefer, so you can fine-tune your balance between stability on harder slopes and cheeky pivot-friendly play.
The 21 m radius at 188 cm means the Hustle 11 tends toward medium-sized turns—long enough for flow on open runs, yet not so big that tight spots feel cumbersome. Turn radius refers to the arc a ski carves when laid on edge: smaller figures feel more agile in tight trees, larger figures smooth out open descents. Combined with its sidecut, this ski offers a blend of float and responsiveness that you can dial in with your binding placement.

Blizzard says about the Hustle 11
We’ve all heard the old “no friends on a powder day” adage, but we’d like to come out and say that that’s BS. We think the best days should be shared with the best people, and when you’re venturing out into the backcountry to get the goods, make sure you have the best skis under your feet, too. Hustle 11 is built off our tried-and-true freeride-oriented profile with a waist width that gets wider as the ski gets longer, so it’s got all the gas you need to send that big line you’ve been eyeing for years, especially when it gets deep. Powered by an all new, lightweight TrueBlend Free wood core, Hustle 11 shaves some weight so you can go further and charge harder, and might just be your new best friend on a powder day.
