Freeski Technology

Völkl freeskiing models feature a multi-layer wood core with two different densities of wood. In the binding attachment area, a dense, ash core is used, while in the rest of the ski, the core is poplar. The more dense wood creates secure screw retention and stability, while the softer poplar section allows for resilience and snap. The flex pattern can be tailored to each ski model to match the desired performance characteristics.

Tough Box construction features a Multi-Layer wood core
wrapped with a composite/fiberglass sheath to create the ultimate
resilience and snap for our freeskiing models.Surrounding the
core in the mid-body of the ski, it adds snap, strength and binding
screw retention.
The symmetrical sidecut allows the park and pipe rider the best
possible performance by allowing a center-mounted ski to perform
the same while riding switch or forward. It also allows completely
even balance for rail slides
