Völkl Rise Above 88 mm alpine touring ski

Völkl Rise Above 88mm is the most versatile alpine touring ski in the Völkl alpine touring range, as it excels in both uphill and downhill performance: it is lightweight and agile when climbing and very stable when descending, adapting to every type of snow.
Here are some of its technical features.
The ski features a multi-layer wood core with Isocore that ensures a reduced weight (1,186 g for 170 cm in length), stability, and fluidity.
The tip (i.e., the tail of the ski) is extremely durable and offers exceptional performance, especially in wind-blown snow conditions.
The tip, along with the waist (the central part of the ski) and the nose, are integral parts of the 3D radius technology: 3 radii of curvature in a single ski! This ski indeed ensures dreamlike performance in both long and wide turns in fresh snow and in tighter passages where great agility is required.
Finally, the geometry of the sidecut offers maximum liveliness and maneuverability in narrow passages, while the full sidewall ensures stability and durability. The combination of a more pronounced shape under the boot and a more moderate one in the tip and tail areas allows for increased control and requires less effort even during tours where heavy loads are carried. This ski is the first choice for demanding mountaineers skiing at high altitudes!
