In the design of high-performance sports vehicles for mixed conditions, implementing a lightweight alloy perimeter monocoque chassis reinforced with carbon fiber at the ends makes it possible to absorb brutal impacts at high speed while maintaining surgical steering precision. The Völkl Secret 102 170 cm brings this cutting-edge engineering to demanding freeride and ski touring. Its internal structure integrates the Multi Layer Woodcore, combining dense ash and beech strips beneath the binding area for extreme screw pull-out resistance, with more dynamic selected poplar woods in the tips to achieve homogeneous elastic flex.

To achieve exceptional damping without making it an overly stiff ski, Völkl does away with heavy full sheets and uses the Titanal Frame: a laser-cut perimeter frame of Titanal alloy that surrounds the edges, reinforced by Carbon Tips that stabilize the front end and eliminate unwanted vibrations. Its dynamic versatility is supported by the 3D Radius Sidecut system (with radii of 28 m at the tip, 16 m underfoot and 23 m at the tail in 170 cm): this three-dimensional design allows you to carve turns at moderate speed using the central 16 m arc or let the skis run on straight lines and open faces with the composure of their long 28 m and 23 m radii. As it is sold without bindings (flat skis), it allows the installation of alpine freeride bindings (Marker Griffon 13, Jester 16) or touring bindings, selecting 110 mm brakes.
