Born directly from the racing department of the German factory in Straubing, the Völkl Racetiger SW GS X WC 23 represent the highest level of performance for advanced junior racers (U16), Masters competitions and technical skiers seeking the composure of a genuine World Cup ski with the maneuverability provided by a 23-metre radius.

World Cup Construction and 23-Metre Geometry

The 23 m turn radius is calibrated to deliver the directional stability required at racing speeds, while also allowing turns to be smoothly tightened between Giant Slalom gates. Its traditional Full Camber profile guarantees contact along 100% of the edge length against hard snow, delivering solid, unwavering bite from tip to tail.

Speedwall 2.0 Sidewalls and Dual Titanal Chassis

Speedwall 2.0 technology incorporates the same synthetic material used in the glide base into the straight sidewalls, allowing them to be waxed to reduce parasitic friction when the ski reaches extreme edging angles. The Full Sidewall construction fully transfers force from the boot directly to the steel edge. In addition, the dual sheet of Titanal integrated over the solid wood Sensor Woodcore completely dampens vibrations on injected courses and provides unwavering torsional stiffness under high centrifugal forces.

World Cup Race Plate and P-Tex 4504 Base

They come standard with the Marker World Cup Race Plate, which optimizes leverage for clean edging without the boot rubbing against the snow, while respecting the ski’s continuous, natural flex. The base is made from ultra-high-molecular-weight sintered polyethylene P-Tex 4504 World Cup, with a race finish and structure to ensure the lowest possible gliding resistance.
