Description: Völkl Kendo 88 Skis w/Marker Grip Walk Bindings Sug Retail $1,250.00 A lot of Völkl's considerable R&D might has been focused on extending the range of it's Titanal Frame offerings this season, and following the success of the M5 Mantra the tried-and-true Kendo was an obvious choice for an upgrade. Lighter, still stable at speed, and somewhat less demanding than the previous version, the new Kendo 88 is a winner that will appeal to all but hard core ex-racer types.The Volkl Kendo has been satisfying the all-mountain demands of advanced and expert skiers for quite some time now. The newest version, the Kendo 88, is the best yet. When they changed this ski, Volkl put a ton of resources into developing the technology that makes it what it is. Instead of 2 full sheets of metal, as was found on the previous version, we now get Titanal Frame. There’s still a full sheet of metal just inside the base, below the core, but on top of the core the metal is positioned just along the edges of the ski and doesn’t connect underfoot. That’s intended to give the ski a bigger sweet spot with a more natural flex underfoot, while retaining the strength and precision of metal when you tip the ski on edge. It also worked hand in hand with Volkl’s 3D.Radius. Longer radii in the tips and tails are combined with a shorter radius underfoot. As the ski has more willingness to flex underfoot, depending on how you’re weighting the ski in a turn, you can flex it into noticeably shorter carves than if just riding the radius of the tips and tails. Those longer radii in the tips and tails also reduce catching, allowing for easier edge release, which translates to more control in technical terrain. Product DetailsRocker TypeTip & Tail Rocker – Bends up only in the shovel and tail zones, with a camber shape in the middle.Sidecut3 Radius Sidecut – Three radii in one ski for maximum turning and speed versatility in all mountain skiing: long at the tip and tail and shorter underfoot.CoreMulti Layer Woodcore – The combination of beech and poplar results in an extremely durable wood core composed of hard wood in the binding area and lighter wood surrounding it.Titanal Frame – Metal, yes, but less of it and only around the perimeter of the tip and tail, to retain the performance advantages of Titanal with less weight.P-Tex 2100 Base – A sintered high-density and high molecular polyethylene base with great gliding characteristics and high durability.Marker GW Bindings fit Any Boot Sole Sizes 260 to 388BUY WITH CONFIDENCE AND SAVE SOME MONEY AS THESE ARE A FRACTION OF THE REGULAR RETAIL VALUE!!!SORRY BUT I DO NOT OFFER A LOCAL PICKUP NOR DO I SHIP OUTSIDE OF THE US
