The 2025 Blizzard Sheeva 11 is a no-compromise, big-mountain powder ski built for women who ski fast, charge hard, and want something that can handle the deep days without flinching. With a 112mm waist and a freeride-focused build, the Sheeva 11 is Blizzard’s answer for female skiers who don’t just want a scaled-down version of a men’s ski—they want a top-tier charger that’s tuned for them.
The Sheeva 11 features Blizzard’s women-specific TrueBlend Free wood core, combining lightweight paulownia with denser poplar in strategic zones to create a flex profile that’s stable underfoot but more forgiving in the tips and tails. FluxForm metal plates are placed along the edges and underfoot—not wall-to-wall—so you get the powerful edge hold and dampness of Titanal without sacrificing maneuverability or adding unnecessary weight.
On snow, the Sheeva 11 feels composed and powerful. It floats effortlessly in powder, but where it really impresses is in chopped-up snow and technical terrain. The long rocker lines and tapered shape make it easy to pivot and smear, but the backbone underfoot lets you drive the ski through heavier conditions without getting knocked around. It’s not a ski for laziness—you’ll get the most out of it if you stay active and forward—but it rewards good skiing with a smooth, confidence-inspiring ride.
Compared to the Sheeva 10, the 11 is noticeably more stable and floaty, making it the go-to for true storm days and back-bowl lines. Versus freeride competitors like the Black Crows Anima Birdie or Nordica Santa Ana 110 Free, the Sheeva 11 leans a little more directional and planted, with a slightly firmer tail and a bit more high-speed composure. It doesn’t feel overly stiff or punishing, but it’s definitely a ski that wants to be driven, not just surfed.
The 2025 version sees updates primarily in graphics and subtle refinements to the core and laminate layout to further dial in the flex. Blizzard isn’t reinventing the wheel here—they’re just sharpening the edges (figuratively and literally) of an already impressive platform.
In short, the Sheeva 11 is for women who want a powerful, floaty ski that doesn’t back down from big lines, high speeds, or variable snow. It’s a ski that wants to push limits—and it’s more than capable of keeping up when you do.
