volkl skis

Two well-established names in Völkl and Nordica are attacking the upper 80-90mm segment in two different ways, but with model names that have been around for a while. The Kendo 88 has an all-new shape, and the Enforcer 88 is steamrolling into a whole new segment for itself. It is no secret that...

This week we chat about the new 2020 Volkl Deacon 84 Lowride! Big shoes to fill replacing the RTM collection, but we're very impressed by these new skis.

Looking to sell these twin tip skis. Each pair may need some tuning. May possibly trade for skis from the 1920s-1960s. Pm in interested. Skis from left to right: Vertical Diesel 188cm ($90 OBO) Volkl Cosmo 169cm ($70 OBO)

This week on Chairlift Chat we review the new 2020 Volkl Mantra 102!

Hi everyone, I would like to ask the community's advice on ski choice. I'm a level 7, perhaps 8 on good days (per the most recent instructors I trusted) 44 yo skier, looking to continue progressing and exploring terrain. I live on the East Coast, but try to take 1-2 trips a year to big...

Please and thank you :)

Which one? That is the question I have to ask whenever someone inquires about a Mantra, the new M5 in particular. "I owned" "My buddy owned" "I read about" ... the Mantra. I always have to answer, "Which one?" The reply is usually, “What do you mean, 'Which one?'" There have been several...

This week on Chairlift Chat we take a closer look at the 2019 Volkl Deacon 76. These things rip! Has anyone been on them yet?

After we requested ideas for Cage Matches, many asked us to compare this against the new Rossignol Experience 94 Ti or that against the new Völkl Mantra M5. So we decided that instead of doing a bunch of one-to-one comparisons, the Rossi and Völkl should take on the world. But first, go back and...

This comparison is one that will likely be brought up in ski shops around the world: the brand-new Secret from Völkl and Blizzard's longtime favorite, the Black Pearl 88. The skis are 4 mm apart in waist width with a 2m difference in turn radius, yet they will appeal to similar women. The Völkl...

This is the Cage Match that I think will be most requested for this coming season because it involves two skis that have been completely reinvented for 2018-19. The only thing that carries over from their previous incarnations is their names. This is going to be the toughest of the matches for...

Hi, I have a pair of Volkl Supersport 5 Star that I haven't used in a long time. How does that ski compare to newer allround skis these days? Is it worth getting these Volk skis tuned or should I simply buy/rent a new pair of skis?

Want something for powder. Currently have nordica enforcer 93s in 193cm as my all mountain/powder ski. Want something wider for deeper days. 193cm is minimum length, I would consider a 200cm ski if anyone made them. I like the enforcer 93, could be a bit stiffer and the 193 length is good. 21+...

Völkl Deacon 74 Dimensions: 125-74-104 Radius: 16m@173cm Sizes: 163, 168, 173, 178 Size tested: 178 Design: All New Drahtguy Kevin: Volkl introduced these new skis with a big online campaign. I was excited to see what the big deal was. Both models have the same damp, quiet ride that is solid...

That's right! A whole new Mantra is here and it brings along some significant changes from the previous version. A brand new construction concept, a new shape, a bigger sweet spot and more approachable ski, but it still has that Mantra-like feel that has made it such a popular ski in the first...

Granted my modern World Cup ski experience is filtered through the overlords of the Olympic Channel but on more than one occasion I've heard the expert, i.e. Bode Miller refer to a skier's equipment issues in such a way you can tell it's more than just the tuning or boot fit... I get the...

We started with our ever-popular Steals & Deals, but added a new twist: the first phase of our “Tester's Choice.” Tester's Choice is a compilation of our reviewers' favorite 2017 skis. We will stick with the same categories as Steals & Deals, but these are more often the skis that manufacturers...
