Volkl Kiku Skis - Women's 2013

When you want uncanny smoothness and predictability from your ski and the ability to feel confident in powder or on hard snow, you’ll look to the Volkl Kiku Skis. Their Full Rocker, vertical sidewalls, and Torsion Box give you everything you’ve been looking for in a ski so that you can maneuver in the deep stuff, and have a solid performance on groomed snow.
Shape
Full Rocker is a smooth, gradual bend from tip to tail with matching sidecut and flex. The Extended Low Profile of Full Rocker gives the skier all the benefits of added maneuverability in soft snow while also delivering smooth, graceful arcs on groomed terrain. It gives you full, uninterrupted edge contact for uncanny smoothness and predictability.
Construction
Multi-layer Sensorwood Light is CNC milled using vertically laminated Poplar and Beech wood.
Power/Tough Box Powered by Carbon is Volkl’s longest-running construction that utilizes traditional vertical sidewalls and a torsion box internal layup. This construction provides tremendous grip, stability, and a smooth ride
Binding Compatibility
Bindings not included. We recommend a brake width that is equal to the ski waist width and at most 15mm wider.

Specs

  • Terrain: All-Mountain, Big Mountain, Powder
    All-Mountain
    All-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm.
    Big Mountain
    Big mountain skis are designed for charging big lines with high speeds and big airs. These skis varry in width from wide, powder-oriented skis for skiing Alaska spines to narrower, mixed condition skis for ripping the beat up headwall at your local mountain. Skis in this category tend to be on the stiffer side, often with more rocker in the tip and less in the tail.
    Powder
    These skis are for the deep days. If you like to find powder stashes at your local resort, go on backcountry missions for the freshest of fresh or heli ski trips to BC, powder skis are what you need to stay afloat. Skis in the powder category are wide and most often have some form of rocker or early rise plus a relatively soft flex. Many powder skis today are versatile enough to handle mixed conditions and harder snow.
  • Ability Level: Advanced-Expert
    Advanced-Expert
    Whether you charge the steepest lines, carve with race-like precision, hit the biggest jumps or halfpipes; advanced to expert level skis/snowboards are for the more aggressive rider. You will often find the addition of layers of metal, carbon, bamboo, or other stringers in these. These features work to make a stiffer ski/snowboard with more power and rebound.
  • Rocker Type: Rocker
    Rocker
    Rocker (also called reverse-camber) is just as it sounds – camber turned upside down. Rocker skis have a side profile with a smooth downward curvature and a contact point at the middle of the ski. Rocker skis excel in deep powder. This profile provides the skis with less tip and tail hang up to prevent from catching edges and allows the skis to initiate turns extremely quickly. This profile doesn’t perform as well in icy conditions or on harder snow but if you spend lots of time in deep, untracked snow and like a more playful ski, Rocker is a great choice.
  • Turning Radius: Medium
    Medium
    17-22 m radius is best for all-mountain and park & pipe.
  • Core/Laminates: Wood
  • Tail Type: Full Twin Tip
    Full Twin Tip
    Desinged to allow you to ski backwards, full twin tips are found primarily on park & pipe skis and freestyle powder skis. More and more, we are seeing twin tips on all-mountain skis of all abilities, as it makes it a little easier to get around, and for the most part does not inhibit forward skiing.

Comments about Volkl Kiku Skis - Women's 2013:

The Kiku is such a fun ski! Powerful, stable and quick through any terrain. I was definitely pleasantly surprised after skiing a few runs on the Kiku. I would recommend the Kiku to anyone looking for a solid all mountain ski that can pretty much do it all.

    Comments about Volkl Kiku Skis - Women's 2013:

    I did a lot of research before buying these skis including demoing a few other pairs in addition to these. I love these skis. They are light, responsive, great float, and I was most surprised buy how fun they were on groomers. They are not just a great powder ski, but a great all mountain ski.

    I am an agressive skier, 5'5'' and 130 lbs, skiing mostly off piste in the NW. I struggled to decide which length to go with before pulling the trigger on the 162. I went with the 162 because the rocker is not as pronounced as other powder skis out there. Because of this, they didn't feel short like some of the other rocker skis out there that I tried.

    These are a ton of fun. I have skied them in 15 inches of soft powder, which they (and I) obviously LOVED, but I have also skied them in heavy pow, spring conditions, crud, groomers, and icey conditions. There was definitely some chatter on the ice, but they still held their edge pretty well. All in all, great ski!
