When it’s not blower conditions, this ski is an easy grab. It lights up on chundery, choppy, and icy days. This ski is nimble and predictable, it responds to power with power, and its platform welcomes airs. Don’t hesitate to roll the Rustler 9 up on edge, too, because this ski carves like a dream. Most days aren’t powder days, which means most days are Rustler 9 days.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Blizzard Rustler 9 Skis crush it in so many conditions we hesitate to think of a better all-rounder in the industry. Very crisp and precise for a rocker-camber-rocker design on firm snow, very nimble in bumps and tight spaces, and more than decent in fresh snow, the Rustler 9 is the daily driver of choice for just about anyone who doesn't limit themselves strictly to groomed terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbility Level\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSkiers that have moved beyond the basics and feel more comfortable on the slopes making strong parallel turns with solid edge control.
