2027 Völkl Revolt 112 Skis Review

Reviewer: Tom Beamish, Retail & Rental Supervisor, evo Village Sports
Location: Sun Peaks, BC
Conditions: Cold & Chalky, Bluebird Groomers

"When I was really giving it the beans on some steeps, it held really well, and it still had a bit of play in the tip and tail."

The Völkl Revolt 112 Skis are the newest member of the Revolt family, built to bridge Völkl's athlete-driven freeride and freestyle shapes with a 112mm waist. There's no tech overload here, just a Multilayer Woodcore and full sidewalls, with the tip and tail rocker profile, 3D Radius Sidecut, and flex doing the heavy lifting. On a firm bluebird day at Sun Peaks, it held an edge on hardpack better than most 112s have any right to, while keeping some play in the tip and tail.

Pros

  • Holds an edge on hardpack without the chatter or flop common to skis this wide
  • Stable and composed when you open it up on steeps
  • Keeps a playful tip and tail for freestyle-minded skiers
  • Versatile enough for park laps, pow days, and everything in between
  • Simple, durable Multilayer Woodcore and full sidewall build

Cons

  • Takes extra effort to activate at lower speeds and on mellower terrain
  • Less pop out of a groomer turn than a narrow and more traditionally cambered ski

Who Is It For?

The Revolt 112 is built for advanced to expert skiers who want one ski for everything, from park laps on down days to steeps, cliffs, and alpine pow. It's a burlier ski that comes alive when you push it and takes some work to activate at lower speeds on mellow pitches, so it rewards an aggressive, active style. Beginners, and anyone who mostly cruises groomers at a relaxed pace, will be happier on something softer and narrower.
