Fresh off the press and ready to randonee, the new Völkl VTA 98 Skis were crafted to make both skinning and descending a hell of a good time. A smooth tip rocker profile handles soft snow conditions effortlessly, while the camber and tourlite woodcore let you manage steep, technical terrain with poise. Built extra-light but with the guts to handle variable backcountry conditions, the VTA 98 Skis are ready and waiting to make your touring season a huge success.
Tip Rocker – For all-mountain skiing and even racing on narrower ski designs, the combination of an early rise tip and a classic camber profile in the rest of the ski provides easy, smooth turn entry regardless of conditions. The ski is forgiving playful, and easy to handle.
Moderate Taper – Moderate setup of tapered tips for an all mountain oriented combination of precision on piste and easy handling off piste.
VTA Superlite Outline – Specific outline design to save weight wherever possible.
Tourlite Woodcore – The combination of beech under the binding and poplar plus paulownia in the outer areas results in a very lightweight woodcore construction which works especially well for touring skis.
ICE.OFF Topsheet – The unique surface structure and material composition reduces icing as the snow simply slides off the topsheet. This leads to a drastic reduction of weight in use, on average up to 20% to 30%. In addition, mainly white graphics support the anti-icing effect. Lighter skis prevent fatigue, especially on long and steep uphill sections.
Carbon Tips – Tip material layup for high reliability/stability at the lightest possible weight.
P-Tex 2100 Base – A sintered high-density and high molecular polyethylene base with great gliding characteristics and high durability.
SkinPin – A skin fastening system that is magnificent in its simplicity: perfect fixation and easy to use; full functionality without unnecessary bells and whistles. The skin is attached by inserting its pin through a shaped hole in the shovel of the ski. The skin is then rotated 90° to lock it in place. Once rotated the skin fixation is 100% reliably secured. The system can be monitored by the skier from above at any time to provide visual peace of mind. The hole in the tip of the ski is also helpful for building a rescue toboggan in an emergency.
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.
