RACETIGER GS & SL



For the 2022/23 winter season, the Straubing-based ski manufacturer presents two new models of its legendary classic Racetiger: the GS, SL.

Featuring highly innovative technology such as Tailored Carbon Tips, the new R-Motion 3 GW binding plate and a narrower waist width for even faster edge changes, the Racetiger GS and SL stand out from their predecessors. These two new key technologies, along with changes to the geometry, have had a significant impact on the handling characteristics of the Race models—with the goal of achieving a tighter radius with less effort for sport skiers, as well as lighter and smoother turning characteristics at moderate speeds. In this way, the new Racetiger models bring top sport performance to an even larger target group.

Tailored Technologies by Völkl: custom carbon fibers in the ski tips for even greater skiing pleasure

THE RACETIGER TECHNOLOGIES

TailoredCarbonTip

One of our latest technologies is Tailored Fibre Placement. In this innovative manufacturing process the new Tailored Carbon Tips are produced by embroidering the individual carbon fibers onto a carrier material. This allows them to be positioned exactly along the stress lines, opening up completely new possibilities, for performance at the front of the ski, which has a decisive influence on the handling of the ski. The stiffness, torsion and thus the skiing characteristics can be specifically adjusted via the fiber thickness and millimeter-precise alignment. In this way, the fibers guide the dynamics to the areas of the ski where they are needed. The visibly integrated Tailored Carbon Tips are light, allow an agile shovel reaction with less effort and quickly build up energy. The Tailored Carbon Tips thus reach a new level of precision, direct tip response and active skiing pleasure.
