Volkl Skis 2006
Written by Dan Morgan, Friday, 12 August 2005Volkl’s new line up for 2006 features the now staple "For Woman Only" range. However, perhaps more notably, the legend that was the ‘P’ race series seems to have slipped out the back door without much attention. Grab a pair of the legendary Volkl P60’s while you can.
No matter how hard you try, you won’t spot an Energy for recreational carving or 7 24 for all mountain versatility in sight either. The "Unlimited" is the new all mountain offering - something for everyone in a range of 6. Carving seems to have been lost opening up the Supersport range to a larger market which can only be a good thing.
Freeski is well represented with an extended range which includes the pivotal Gotama & Karma from last year as well as the new behemoth that is the Sumo - a mammoth 125mm underfoot.
Racetiger (Race)
The all-new Racetiger
Series was designed with one thing in mind - speed. The race course
remains the laboratory of all Völkl product development. It doesn’t
matter who or what you’re racing - your buddy, the clock, or your own
ego - a Racetiger will get you there faster.

Supersport (Performance / Expert All Mountain)
The
Supersport Series is the choice for the high performance all-mountain
skier. Aggressive new sidecuts are the foundation of Supersport
technolology. Combine that with race-inspired constructions and
state-of-the art ski/binding systems and you have what all high
performance skiers seek - perfection.

Freeskiing (Freestyle / Freeride)
The expanded freeskiing series includes all the tools you need to express yourself. From the terrain park to the bumps to the backcountry freeskiers are pushing the envelope further and further they need the right tool for the job. This season’s lineup reflects each of freeskiing’s specialities.
Unlimited (All Mountain)
Newly
engineered for 05/06, the all-conditions skis of the Unlimited Series
offer the freedom to explore the powder, the groomed or anywhere in
between. No matter which continent or coast, the Unlimited Series
offers a ski for every ability and style. The ultimate one-ski quiver
lies within.

Attiva (Women)
Introducing Völkl’s
newest group of skis for women only - the Attiva Series. Each ski
blends pedal-to-the-metal attitude with our proven women-specific
construction techniques. The 20/20 core is 20% lighter and 20% softer
than our comparable men’s core. Combined with the only women-specific
ski/binding system, Attiva Motion, it’s clear that Völkl leads the way
in women’s ski technology.

Mountain (Backcountry / Telemark)
The skis of the Mountain Series will take you as deep into the backcountry as the snow - and your skills - will allow. Two innovative alpine touring models and Völkl’s first telemark specific model comprise the lineup for 05/06. All three are light weight, and their wide shapes make them ideal for adventuring in softer snow.
Junior
Whether a racer or a beginner, boy or girl, Völkl offers a ski for every junior skier. From the junior racing circuit to the terrain park and the magic carpet, our junior skis give little rippers the tools to improve.
