ESQUI SKI VÖLKL SECRET 96 FLAT V2310116

The implementation of the Tailored Titanal Frame and Tailored Carbon Tips means that the ski adapts more optimally to its length and, therefore, to the skier, offering adapted performance without being excessively demanding for lighter skiers in shorter lengths.

This is a ski for the female skier who seeks uncompromising performance across the entire mountain, from the first chairlift to the last, regardless of the snow conditions encountered. It is not a ski for beginners or intermediates, but for those who have solid technique and the strength to unleash its full potential.

Being "FLAT," it requires the separate purchase and mounting of bindings. It is recommended to pair it with performance bindings suitable for the ski's level, with an appropriate DIN range for advanced skiers (e.g., Marker Griffon 13, Marker Jester 16, or equivalents).

Key Features and Technologies of the Völkl Secret 96:
-Category: All-Mountain (with a strong bias towards on-piste skiing), Freeride, Powder.
Skier Level: Advanced to Expert.
-Waist Width: 96 mm. This waist width makes it an extremely versatile ski. It is narrow enough to be agile and offer excellent grip on hard snow and groomed slopes, but also wide enough to provide good float in fresh or variable snow. Construction:
-Multi-Layer Woodcore: Combines hard woods (like beech) in the sidewalls for greater power transmission and edge grip, and lighter woods (like poplar) in the center for agility and overall lightness. This combination provides an optimal balance between power, stability, and liveliness.
-Tailored Titanal Frame: This is one of Völkl's most innovative technologies. Unlike a traditional Titanal frame, the width and length of the Titanal layer vary according to the ski's length. This means longer skis (for heavier and more powerful skiers) have more Titanal for greater stiffness, dampening, and power transmission, while shorter skis (for lighter skiers) have less Titanal, making them more agile and easier to handle, without sacrificing performance feel.
-Tailored Carbon Tips: Carbon fibers strategically integrated into the ski's tip. This allows for a more precise and agile turn initiation with less effort, while contributing to torsional stiffness without adding the weight of metal.
-Full Sidewall: Provides direct and strong power transmission to the edges, resulting in exceptional edge grip, precision, and a smooth ride.
-Rocker: Tip & Tail Rocker. A moderate rocker in both the tip and tail facilitates turn initiation, improves float in soft snow, and makes the ski more forgiving in varied terrain. Traditional camber underfoot ensures powerful grip on hard snow and good responsiveness.
-Sidecut: 3D Radius Sidecut. This patented Völkl technology uses three different radii in a single ski:
-Long radii in the tip and tail: Facilitate wide turns and high-speed stability, and make the ski more resistant to vibrations.
-Shorter radius in the center (underfoot): Allows for shorter, faster turns with less effort, making it very agile in situations requiring quick changes of direction. This combination offers exceptional versatility in turn shape and speed, allowing the skier to adapt their style to any condition.
-Base: P-Tex 2100. A high-density, high-molecular-weight sintered base that offers excellent gliding properties and high durability.
-Design: Distinctive and modern graphics, geared towards the high-performance female -market.
