Upper And Lower Layers
FIBERGLASS WEAVE
The fiberglass weave leaves its mark on the board’s flex and torsion properties. The choice of weave (direction of individual fibers in relation to one another) and its thickness is selected individually for each length of board. Another decisive factor in the degree of flex and torsion is the distance between the upper and lower layer (degree and variation of thickness throughout the board). The thicker the board and the more layers it has, the stiffer the flex.
BIAXIAL FIBERGLASS WEAVE IN UPPER AND LOWER BEAM
Glass fibers are woven at 90° angles lengthwise and transversely to another. This results in relatively low torsional stiffness and a board with good-natured temperament.
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
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.
VÖLKL PREMIUM CARBON WEAVE
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.
ARAMID INLAYS
Tension- and pressure resistant aramid fibers in the upper and lower layer dampen vibrations in the board, which increases shock absorption, especially at higher speeds.
HARDWOOD VENEER
The environment benefits from this veneer inlay and so does your performance. The inlay strengthens the woodcore in the upper and lower layer on the full length of the board. This provides more pop and lively riding characteristics, while at the same time reducing the amount of fiberglass and therefore doing something good for our planet.
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.
VÖLKL PREMIUM CARBON WEAVE / POP 2.0
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. One permanent strip, plus two short V-shaped Völkl Premium Carbon strips each embedded in nose and tail.
VÖLKL PREMIUM CARBON WEAVE / POP 3.0
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. Three permanent Völkl Premium Carbon strips meet in the middle.
VÖLKL PREMIUM CARBON WEAVE / POP 4.0
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. One complete Völkl Premium Carbon lower beam for minimum weight, more smoothness and maximum response.
