Product Info

When Völkl announced that they were phasing out their iconic Shiro in favor of a new freeride model, hardcores had this to say: "It better be good." Now that the Völkl Confession Skis are for real, it's plain that they are. With more tip and tail taper than the blunt-nosed Shiros but the same Titanal-infused personality when speed and chop rear their heads, the Confessions are meant for really fast skiers who know how to make a turn. If you're the type who usually talks about wanting a "playful" ski or who spends your time jibbing and buttering around the mountain you might do better to look elsewhere. If the word "BIG" figures prominently into your ski discussions, as in "lines," "air," and "mountain" -- the Völkl Confession Skis may be right up your alley.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Freeski Tip and Tail RockerMakes the ski turn-friendly and allows for a stiffer flex setup. Only the shovel and tail zones bend upwards, with traditional cambering in the middle for pop.

Shape

Moderate Tip & Tail Taper

Core

Multi-Layer Wood CoreVölkl freeskiing models feature a multi-layer wood core that features two different densities of wood. In the binding attachment area, a dense, ash core is used, while in the rest of the ski, the core is poplar. The more dense wood creates more secure screw retention, preventing binding pull-out, and the soft, supple poplar section allows for resilience and snap. The flex pattern is tailored to each ski model, depending on the desired performance.

Laminates

Power ConstructionConstruction utilizes traditional vertical sidewalls and a torsion box internal layup. Used in racing skis as well as all the freeskiing models, this versatile, proven construction provides tremendous grip, stability, and a smooth ride.

Titanal BandTitanal alloy is added for improved dampness and strength.

Carbon Stringer

Sidewalls

Full SidewallDirect and strong power transmission with full length sidewalls.

Base

P-Tex 4500

Binding Compatibility

We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.
