The Blizzard Canvas 108 is part of a new, freestyle-oriented line from Blizzard. We know Anomaly and Black Pearl crush the directional all-mountain category. The Rustler and Sheeva are legacy skis in the freeride scene. Canvas slots in perfectly as a more playful alternative and leans hard into a more progressive design. For certain, the Rustler/Sheeva hold plenty of rocker and playful characteristics. But, metal and generally stiffer, heavier constructions keep this from being a ski of choice for skiers who live on the very playful side of the spectrum. Canvas is here to solve that.
The Canvas 108 does what Blizzard hoped it would do: Fill out the collection with a light and playful freeride ski. And I would argue that it meets that need even better than I expected, and better than some of its competitors do.
I am a mostly directional skier who enjoys varying my line often to hit pow pockets or small airs, etc. It’s kind of an ADHD style, to be honest. “Over here!” “Now over here!” The Canvas 108 allows me to do whatever I want on the hill (indeed, paint my own canvas), and it feels intuitive and confidence-inspiring. So much so that I reach for it even on some firm days just because I want to mess around and have a good time (or pretend I’m 17 again in the terrain park).
It’s quickly become my favorite playful mid-fat ski. And while I will leave it in the bag if I’m going to ski big-mountain terrain with variable (read: bad) snow conditions, I think the first part means that Blizzard nailed it.
