    Frontside speed or backside face shots? On the Völkl Kendo skis, you can have the best of both sides of the mountain.

    • Völkl Kendo skis work well if you're sticking to the groomed runs, but they are ideal if you find yourself switching between groomed runs and off-piste terrain
    • Skis' design is quick and responsive across all terrain and in all conditions, and 89mm waists offer enough flotation to enjoy the occasional powder stash
    • Sensorwood core consists of vertically laminated ash and poplar woods, providing responsive, powerful turning and torsional rigidity
    • 2 titanium sheets increase torsional resistance and damp vibrations without adding cumbersome weight
    • Slight rise in the tips makes it easy to start turning and offers forgiving stability in crud, and standard camber underfoot enhances maneuverability on groomed runs
    • Directional twin-tip construction excels when skiing forward and gives you the option of riding switch if you need
    • Low tip shape smooths out your ride on the groomed runs and resists diving in soft snow
    • Vertical sidewalls provide excellent grip, stability and sensitivity
    • Base or topsheet color may vary from online photo

    Recommended rider weights are a general guideline. Please keep in mind that additional factors can affect which size will best suit your needs. If you have questions regarding ski and snowboard sizing, please contact us at 1-800-426-4840.

    Please note: Volkl products can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

    Comments about Volkl Kendo Skis - Men's - 2012/2013:

    I think this is a really under rated ski. I demoed the 2013 model with marker bindings on them and they totally blew me away. This ski is so much fun to ski light weight and they have a super sweet pop when you drive out of a turn they don't feel like a wide ski at all.If you like to have a ski that you can use all the time and be able to hike a ridge and ski the powder and your not an expert skier these are a really good choice the day I tried them it wasnt a big powder day there was about 2 feet of powder on the top ridge lots of chop and crud near the waist of the bowl, I hiked up four times because I was having a blast, last run it was pretty dark they also took the jumps alot better then the skis I have there is no park here but lots of stuff to jump off the other thing I liked about them is since they pop out of the turns and have nice float I didnt get tired using them.The olny thing I did not like about them was the grapics the white background is not my faorite.I would really like to take these with me on my snowmobile and try them in the deep stuff!!
