Ski Constructions

Dual extended transmission sidewall

In this new construction, reinforcement channels are aligned to support the outside of the ski, over the sidewalls and edges. This works to prevent chatter and provide a stable ride throughout the turn, regardless of snow conditions.

Dual extended transmission

Featured in the RTM 80, the Dual Extended Transmission construction has a similar profile to the sidewall construction of the RTM 84. It makes the RTM 80 more forgiving and softer in its feel, yet still delivers the necessary power for an exciting ride that is accessible to more than just expert skiers.

The mid-range RTM models follow a similar construction philosophy, although the reinforcement is somewhat less pronounced, giving the ski a more relaxed ride quality, while still ‘keeping up’ as the skier improves.

Double Grip Technology

Our proven Double Grip constructions continue to deliver incredible performance. This high tech construction consists of raising the height of the construction above the edge, creating added support for the edge, and in turn, better edge grip.

Extended Double Grip
The unique Motion iPT interface allowed Völkl engineers to further develop our signature Double Grip construction, creating Extended Double Grip. The added height extends from tip to tail, placing more material where it’s needed - in support of the edges. Featured in conjunction with various Motion iPT and eMotion systems.

Power Grip
All skis with 3Motion feature Power Grip™ construction, which improves power delivery to the edge with a unique 3 Dimensional design. As with Extended Double Grip, the segmented Motion interface allows the ski to be shaped with more material supporting the edge, for better edge grip and smoother turns.n iPT and eMotion systems.

Power Construction
Völkl’s longest-running construction, Power Construction utilizes traditional vertical sidewalls and a torsion box internal layup. Used in racing skis as well as all the freeskiing models, this versatile, proven construction provides tremendous grip and stability when combined with the Sensorwood core.

Power Shell Construction
Völkl’s Power Shell Construction utilizes a full cap shell, without a vertical sidewall. This design allows for an easy, round flex pattern, with an extremely friendly ride quality.
