The V. Werks is an extremely versatile, incredibly powerful, super light & yet playful all mountain ski. It's something very special where the engineers have pushed themselves to create new uses of materials & construction. It will crush any conditions on piste & flow through fresh snow. The Carbon Fibre Functional Placement cleverly positions carbon fibre to make the ski more precise but also easier to control; the 3D. Ridge adds power without weight. No concessions, just performance. Terrain Type & Ability Level Terrain Type It is an all mountain ski with a piste focus, designed for carving whatever the snow conditions & still able to handle skiing off-piste. It will grip & bite on icy runs, blast through crud & chop, & effortlessly ski fresh snow. If you're an all mountain skier who longs for untouched slopes & powder, think wider than this, but if you're the kind who spends hours on piste & still want to ski other terrain & aren't looking to compromise, then the V. Werks is a dream come true. Skier Type Advanced & expert level skiers who want a piste focused all mountain ski. Thanks to the construction it has a huge performance level. It's easy & comfortable to ski at slower speeds & still with the grip, power & stability for skiing at pace whatever the slopes or snow. Overview Shape The V. Werks is based on the shape of the successful 84 model, ideally suited to blasting on pistes & all mountain. 84mm in the waist delivers performance whatever condition the runs are in, narrow enough for quick response & with the width to feel stable, even when skiing all mountain. The 3D Radius Sidecut ensures a range of turn size feel natural. A long radius on the tip & tail is combined with a tighter radius in the centre. The longer radii aid bigger turns & higher speeds with easy steering, less tip disruption & smoother turn exits. The shorter radius in the centre makes it easier to execute short turns & improves agility. The contact points are close to the tip & tail to provide a long effective edge, rocker means that it feel grabby or twitchy. Rocker XTD Tip & Tail Rocker uses a unique shape with a longer rocker profile compared to traditional tip & tail rocker. There is a short camber underfoot for grip & response; the shovel is firmer, & tip & tail rocker aids turn initiation & release. Core The 3D Hybrid Multilayer Woodcore is a very dynamic woodcore with a combination of hard wood, poplar, beech & isocore in the centre, with a super light hard wood poplar mix in the outer areas. A 0.7mm Titanal frame surrounds the most stressed tip & tail areas to increase power transmission & shock absorption. Construction Full sidewalls produce direct & strong power transmission to the ski edges. The 3D. Ridge & Carbon Fibre Functional Placement use exclusive technology & construction to keep the weight down whilst improving stability, performance & ease of use. Key Features Carbon Fibre Functional Placement This new manufacturing process makes precise power transmission, as well as liveliness & energy, accessible with minimal effort. The carbon fibres are no longer incorporated as a uniform fleece but now integrated through a stitching procedure in such a way that their orientation & strength meet the functional requirements of each part of the ski. Since the performance of a ski is largely determined by the behaviour in the tip & tail areas, the carbon fibres are concentrated in the front & back third of the ski, where they provide direct benefits. With reliable power transmission, the ski can be controlled precisely & directly, allowing the skier to access previously unknown levels of performance. 3D.

Volkl’s updated Kanjo takes many elements of the Mantra & Kendo models but dials them back to make it a less demanding all mountain option than its bigger brothers. At 84mm underfoot it’s ideal for skiing piste & exploring down the sides & further away from groomers. A Multilayer Woodcore & full sidewalls ensure it’s precise, & it now uses a 3D Radius Sidecut for unflappable handling whatever the conditions. It’s fun & lively when you push it, has the stability for skiing mixed conditions & the

Dimensions that keep it nimble & responsive. It’s the perfect choice for intermediate & advanced skiers who don’t want the stiffest or widest skis. Terrain Type & Ability Level Terrain Type Lots of time playing around on the pistes & off the sides, plus the occasional trip a bit further through trees or looking for adventure away from the groomed snow. With it’s easy handling & snappy response, it’s the ideal choice to boost confidence whether skiing tighter areas, choppy snow or boot deep powder. Skier Type All mountain skiers looking for playfulness over power. It could be that they’re less experienced or maybe they’re lighter & don’t want a ski that would be too stiff. It’ll suit intermediates buying their first proper all mountain ski or more technical skiers from the advanced category who aren’t looking for out-&-out power. Overview Shape 84mm underfoot suits all mountain ski that is designed to be playful & easy to use, it’s quick edge-to-edge on firmer snow but has enough width for the float & stability to start skiing away from the pistes. The 3D Radius Sidecut produces radii of 25m in the tip, 17m in the centre & 20m at the tail for a 175cm model. Rocker Tip & Tail Rocker uses camber underfoot for excellent grip & response, with tip & tail rocker to aid turn initiation & release. Core The Multi Layer Woodcore uses a combination of beech & poplar, resulting in an extremely durable core composed of hard wood in the binding area & lighter wood around. On top of this there is a Titanal Binding Platform, this is a thin Titanal layer (0.3 mm) under the binding to deliver the necessary strength to the ski. This way the binding screws offer reliable hold even in the toughest conditions. Construction Direct & strong power transmission with full length sidewalls.

Aimed at confident skiers who want one ski to go everywhere, the Kendo 88 is remarkably versatile. The 3 Radius Sidecut mixes longer radii at the tip & tails with a shorter radius in the middle to produce smooth long or dynamic short turns whatever the terrain. Carbon Tips reduce swing weight & the low tip & tail rocker ensure that it’s impressively manoeuvrable. The same Titanal Frame as the Mantra M5 provides power & precision but because it’s not a single solid piece it allows the ski to be forgiving at slower speeds too. Tester’s comments: Mark (Trainer) I tested it on firm snow & it was solid, stable & fun. Not what you’d assume from a ski like this. Top drawer edge hold & full of power, however, it’s all still easy to use for slightly less confident skiers too. ...

Aimed at advanced skiers who want one ski to go everywhere on the mountain, the Kendo 88 is remarkably versatile. It has the grip to carve big, high-speed turns on piste & the width & handling to ski fast off-piste in variable conditions. The Tailored Titanal Frame runs full length to provide the best dampening & stability, as well as power for the edges. Carbon Tips reduce swing weight & the low tip & tail rocker ensure that it’s impressively manoeuvrable. Terrain Type & Ability Level Terrain Type everywhere on the mountain, remembering that skiing off-piste is much more than only powder runs. The stability & grip that serve it so well in choppy & packed snow are also important on piste for strong skiers. Skier Type Advanced & expert all mountain skiers who want some width for stability but who are realistic enough to know they won’t be skiing deep powder often. The Kendo 88 has plenty of power & grip for skiing all the conditions & terrain that good skiers will encounter off-piste, as well as plenty of time on piste. Overview Shape 88mm underfoot works well as a compromise for a serious all mountain skier; not too wide to make the ski feel sluggish on firm snow & offering float & balance for other conditions. The centre section of the 3D Sidecut is now 1m shorter in radius, making turning even easier. The sidecut is fairly straight to help with stability; the tips & tails are relatively short to keep a long effective edge. The tail has a slight rise that assists turn release, especially useful in trickier terrain or snow. Rocker Tip & Tail Rocker uses camber underfoot for excellent grip & response, with tip & tail rocker to aid turn initiation & release. Core The Multi Layer Woodcore uses a combination of beech & poplar, resulting in an extremely durable core composed of hard wood in the binding area & lighter wood around. This is reinforced by a full length Tailored Titanal Frame that increases torsional stiffness & improves dampening. Construction Full sidewall produces direct & strong power transmission for the best control. Key Features Tailored Titanal Frame Tailored Titanal Frame is an evolution of Volkl’s familiar Titanal Frame. In this design, the width of the Titanal upper belt can be adapted to the length of the ski; the resulting torsional stiffness & the desired damping behaviour can be adapted to the skier. The Titanal content is reduced in shorter skis, which means shorter & lighter skiers can get the most out of their skis without excessive effort. The new Tailored Carbon Tips make the Kendo 88 extremely versatile. Carbon fibres applied by means of Tailored Fibre Placement (TFP) allow our engineers to influence curve behaviour with great accuracy. The strength & alignment of the fibres define the force you need to apply & the energy that builds up where it’s needed. Agile shovel reaction is a feature of special note. This means that as soon as you initiate a turn, you can steer the ski in a measured, easy manner. In other words, simply think about changing direction – & it happens. This construction also allows means less weight without any loss of stability.3D Radius Sidecut The 3D Radius Sidecut ensures a range of turn size feel natural. A long radius on the tip & tail is combined with a tighter radius in the centre. The longer radii aid bigger turns & higher speeds with easy steering, less tip disruption & smoother turn exits. The shorter radius in the centre makes it easier to execute short turns & improves agility. Carbon Tips In this innovative manufacturing process, the new Tailored Carbon Tips are produced by embroidering the individual carbon fibres 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 & thus the skiing characteristics can be specifically adjusted via the fibre thickness & millimetre-precise alignment. In this way, the fibres guide the dynamics to the areas of the ski where they are needed. The visibly integrated Carbon Tips are light, allow an agile shovel reaction with less effort & quickly build up energy. The Carbon Tips thus reach a new level of precision, direct tip response & active skiing pleasure.e B tester’s comments: Alex (Braehead) You can feel the stiffness of it, great for charging but definitely not for slow speed cruising. It's an aggressive ski that wants you to work it on shorter turns & is most at home powering through crud on long carves.

The Titanal content is reduced in shorter skis, which means shorter & lighter skiers can get the most out of their skis without excessive effort. The new Tailored Carbon Tips make the Kendo 88 extremely versatile. Carbon fibres applied by means of Tailored Fibre Placement (TFP) allow our engineers to influence curve behaviour with great accuracy. The strength & alignment of the fibres define the force you need to apply & the energy that builds up where it’s needed. Agile shovel reaction is a feature of special note. This means that as soon as you initiate a turn, you can steer the ski in a measured, easy manner. In other words, simply think about changing direction – & it happens. This construction also allows means less weight without any loss of stability.3D Radius Sidecut The 3D Radius Sidecut ensures a range of turn size feel natural. A long radius on the tip & tail is combined with a tighter radius in the centre. The longer radii aid bigger turns & higher speeds with easy steering, less tip disruption & smoother turn exits. The shorter radius in the centre makes it easier to execute short turns & improves agility. Carbon Tips In this innovative manufacturing process, the new Tailored Carbon Tips are produced by embroidering the individual carbon fibres 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 & thus the skiing characteristics can be specifically adjusted via the fibre thickness & millimetre-precise alignment. In this way, the fibres guide the dynamics to the areas of the ski where they are needed. The visibly integrated Carbon Tips are light, allow an agile shovel reaction with less effort & quickly build up energy. The Carbon Tips thus reach a new level of precision, direct tip response & active skiing pleasure.e B tester’s comments: Alex (Braehead) You can feel the stiffness of it, great for charging but definitely not for slow speed cruising.

Aimed at advanced skiers who want one ski to go everywhere on the mountain, the Kendo 88 is remarkably versatile. It has the grip to carve big, high-speed turns on piste & the width & handling to ski fast off-piste in variable conditions. The Tailored Titanal Frame runs full length to provide the best dampening & stability, as well as power for the edges. Carbon Tips reduce swing weight & the low tip & tail rocker ensure that it’s impressively manoeuvrable. Terrain Type & Ability Level Terrain Type everywhere on the mountain, remembering that skiing off-piste is much more than only powder runs. The stability & grip that serve it so well in choppy & packed snow are also important on piste for strong skiers. Skier Type Advanced & expert all mountain skiers who want some width for stability but who are realistic enough to know they won’t be skiing deep powder often. The Kendo 88 has plenty of power & grip for skiing all the conditions & terrain that good skiers will encounter off-piste, as well as plenty of time on piste. Overview Shape 88mm underfoot works well as a compromise for a serious all mountain skier; not too wide to make the ski feel sluggish on firm snow & offering float & balance for other conditions. The centre section of the 3D Sidecut is now 1m shorter in radius, making turning even easier. The sidecut is fairly straight to help with stability; the tips & tails are relatively short to keep a long effective edge. The tail has a slight rise that assists turn release, especially useful in trickier terrain or snow. Rocker Tip & Tail Rocker uses camber underfoot for excellent grip & response, with tip & tail rocker to aid turn initiation & release. Core The Multi Layer Woodcore uses a combination of beech & poplar, resulting in an extremely durable core composed of hard wood in the binding area & lighter wood around. This is reinforced by a full length Tailored Titanal Frame that increases torsional stiffness & improves dampening. Construction Full sidewall produces direct & strong power transmission for the best control.

Volkl Kanjo 84 Skis 2021

Volkl’s updated Kanjo takes many elements of the Mantra and Kendo models but dials them back to make it a less demanding all mountain option than its bigger brothers. At 84mm underfoot it’s ideal for skiing piste and exploring down the sides and further away from groomers. A Multilayer Woodcore and full sidewalls ensure it’s precise, and it now uses a 3D Radius Sidecut for unflappable handling whatever the conditions. It’s fun and lively when you push it, has the stability for skiing mixed conditions and the dimensions that keep it nimble and responsive. It’s the perfect choice for intermediate and advanced skiers who don’t want the stiffest or widest skis.Terrain Type & Ability LevelTerrain Type Lots of time playing around on the pistes and off the sides, plus the
occasional trip a bit further through trees or looking for adventure away from the groomed snow. With it’s easy handling and snappy response, it’s the ideal choice to boost confidence whether skiing tighter areas, choppy snow or boot deep powder.Skier TypeAll mountain skiers looking for playfulness over power. It could be that they’re less experienced or maybe they’re lighter and don’t want a ski that would be too stiff. It’ll suit intermediates buying their first proper all mountain ski or more technical skiers from the advanced category who aren’t looking for out-and-out power.OverviewShape84mm underfoot suits all mountain ski that is designed to be playful and easy to use, it’s quick edge-to-edge on firmer snow but has enough width for the float and stability to start
