TOPSHEET ON MATTE SILK-SCREEN PRINTING
TOPSHEET ON MATTE SILK-SCREEN PRINTING

Silk-screen printing with matte lacquer finish makes the topsheet feel like suede, with the benefit of added topsheet grip. Additionally, the combination of matte and glossy lacquers offers visual depth and a stylish 3D look.
PARTIAL GRIP-LACQUER
PARTIAL GRIP-LACQUER

It’s both a stylish design feature and integrated stomp pad! Depending on the design, there are coarse or finer grains inside the lacquer – with or without glitter… Benefit from a unique look and bulletproof grip!

TIP-TO-TAIL SUPREME WOODCORE
TIP-TO-TAIL SUPREME WOODCORE

Our Tip-to-Tail Supreme Woodcore is made of strips of Aspen-Falcatta wood with four strips of Falcatta being integrated in the Aspen core. Combining these gives the core the best dampening and flex properties, providing outstanding performance.
SLIM-TIP CONSTRUCTION
SLIM-TIP CONSTRUCTION

Unlike a conventional sandwich construction, the Slim-Tip Construction incorporates a solid and shock-absorbing urethane inlay in the nose and tail sections instead of ABS sidewall material. Benefits include a stylish, slimmer nose, reduced swing- and overall weights for better board control – perfect for all riders, not just for high-speed rotations in the park!

TRADITIONAL SHOCK ABSORBER
TRADITIONAL SHOCK ABSORBER

This consists of one single hard wood layer. It is not milled into the core but inserted where the core tapers down. Together with a V-Flex inlay the Shock Absorber makes the board stronger with better torsion properties.
TRUE TWIN-TIP FREESTYLE SIDECUT
TRUE TWIN-TIP FREESTYLE SIDECUT

This shape is known for a narrower radius and shorter effective edge. A symmetrical sidecut with identical nose and tail flex delivers perfect and safe riding characteristics, both regular and switch. Boards with a True Twin-Tip Sidecut are extremely forgiving and also very lively. Whether it’s backcountry, park or pipe – these boards provide the ultimate freestyle performance!

FREESTYLE ROCKER
FREESTYLE ROCKER

Nose and tail are equipped with the same moderate concave radius, which makes jibs and butters a walk in the park. No more edge-catching slams! If you don’t land the trick perfectly, the edge won’t catch immediately and you can still easily turn your board. This shape also provides you with more float in powder, a bonus when it comes to bombed landings and flat powder slopes.
5x2 INSERT SYSTEM
5x2 INSERT SYSTEM

Generally you’re dealing with one of three insert systems: 4x4, 5x2 or 6x2. With a 4x4 system, the inserts are 4 cm apart. With the 5x2 and 6x2 Insert Systems, the insert rows are separated by 2 cm only. This way the stance can be set more exactly – down to the precise centimeter. The 6x2 Insert System is specifically employed in our top freestyle boards to offer individual binding placement. Adjustments on binding discs will be limited to the centering of bindings.
TRIAXIAL FIBERGLASS WEAVE IN UPPER AND LOWER BEAM
TRIAXIAL FIBERGLASS WEAVE IN UPPER AND LOWER BEAM

This special fiberglass weave has fibers that have been positioned at a 45° angle (+45°/-45°) in addition to running nose to tail. Depending on the density of the woven fiber, torsion and flex are enhanced without influencing the wood core’s thickness. This reduces weight, which delivers responsiveness and better edge grip.

V-FLEX FIBERGLASS WEAVE
V-FLEX FIBERGLASS WEAVE

The V-Flex weave is a triaxial fiberglass weave with increased fiber density. The special V-form reinforces the area around the bindings, producing improved flex and torsion properties. It also provides optimal distribution of power to the edge of the board. This provides better stability when strain and forces are strong.

EXTRUDED BASE
EXTRUDED BASE

Produced by fusion, it is very hard and even more damage-resistant. It’s also the best choice for riders who don’t regularly hot wax their boards – the best sintered base’s gliding properties if left unwaxed are not as good as those of an unwaxed extruded base.
DIE-CUT
DIE-CUT

Our ultrasound cutting machine cuts out differently colored pieces of the base, which are then manually put together like a jigsaw. A combination of multi-colored base components gives the design individuality and character.

DIAMOND FINISH
DIAMOND FINISH

A diamond finish is now standard on all our boards (except those equipped with a Convex Powder Base or Convex Slide Base). The edges are ground so that they extend 1° down from the base and 1° out from the sides. The diamond finish not only makes the edges more durable but also provides maneuverability and great edge hold in icy conditions.

NATURAL WAX FINISH (BIODEGRADABLE)
NATURAL WAX FINISH (BIODEGRADABLE)

After positive tests in our Race Lab, all Völkl boards now get a finish with HOLMENKOL's “Natural Wax”. Good news for all riders who are looking for a biological wax with excellent gliding characteristics. It doesn’t include paraffin, is made of sustainable resources and biodegradable. Those who want to take extra care of their boards with a green consciousness, can buy HOLMENKOL's “Natural Wax” in normal packaging sizes in the specialized trade.

VÖLKL PREMIUM CARBON WEAVE / POP 1.0
VÖLKL PREMIUM CARBON WEAVE / POP 1.0

Carbon fibers in the lower beam make the board stronger and livelier. The carbon fibers’ tensile strength allows for very short response times. In addition, the high-class, specifically made Völkl Premium Carbon incorporates lengthwise fiberglass strips. This weave considerably enhances the board’s torsional stiffness, pop and liveliness. Depending on the required riding characteristics and the amount of carbon, Völkl has developed four different POP Carbon inlays. Two short V-shaped Völkl Premium Carbon strips each embedded in nose and tail.
