In high-performance motorsport, a reinforced chassis with a dual alloy beam provides unyielding torsional rigidity that keeps the vehicle flat and stable when carving high-speed corners over uneven terrain. The Völkl Kenja 163 cm brings this mechanical solidity to all-mountain and freeride skiing. Its internal architecture features the Multi Layer Woodcore, combining dense ash and beech hardwood strips underfoot to ensure pull-out-proof screw retention for bindings, with more dynamic selected woods in the tips to maintain consistent responsiveness.

Unlike softer models with fibre reinforcements, the Kenja incorporates Powered by Titanium construction: a structure with Titanal alloy sheets that absorbs any vibration at high speeds and neutralises chatter on icy or tracked-out snow, ensuring flawless tracking through its 16.8 m radius. Its full vertical Full Sidewall edges provide direct and uncompromising power transmission from the boot to the snow. The Tip & Tail Rocker profile with traditional camber underfoot allows effortless turn initiation and float in soft snow without losing the elastic rebound characteristic of a true German ski. Supplied without bindings (flat skis), it allows the customer to install high-performance alpine bindings (Marker Griffon 13, Squire 11) or touring bindings, selecting 90 mm or 100 mm brakes.
