In high-performance motorsport designed for rough surfaces at high speed, chassis mass and torsional rigidity are crucial for absorbing impacts and maintaining the exact line. The Völkl Aura brings this architecture to wide all-mountain skiing. Its structural base incorporates the Multi Layer Woodcore wood core, which combines dense ash stringers under the mounting area to ensure immovable binding screw retention, with lighter, more elastic poplar wood at the ends to provide responsiveness when exiting turns.

Mounted over the core are two full sheets of Titanal: this structure acts like a race damper, eliminating tip vibrations at high speed and driving the edge firmly into hardpack, spring snow, or ice. Its profile features a continuous Full Rocker design: by eliminating the traditional camber underfoot, it provides immediate flotation in powder and makes skidding and direction changes intuitive and fluid, while maintaining an effective contact surface as soon as the ski is put on edge. As this model is sold without bindings (flat skis), it allows skiers to custom-install alpine piste/freeride bindings (such as Marker Griffon or Jester) or touring/freetouring bindings (such as Kingpin or Duke PT), selecting the appropriate brake width for its 100 mm waist (100 mm or 110 mm brakes recommended).
