The Völkl RTM 73 skis with bindings offer all-mountain performance in an affordable package.

  • The Völkl RTM 73 skis with bindings really excel when you're sticking just to the groomers, and if you find yourself going off-piste, they won't disappoint
  • Wood cores extend upward to form the chambers of the Extended Transmission profile
  • These chambers support the outside of the skis over the edges and create a forgiving feel with responsive power
  • Slight rise in the tips makes it easy to start turning and offers forgiving stability in crud, and thin width in the tails creates better turns with less effort
  • Integrated 3Motion TL 10.0 bindings offer dynamic performance with precise pressure distribution throughout
  • 3Motion system uses integrated rails to attach bindings to skis, eliminating screws and promoting the skis' natural flex
  • When the skis flex naturally, you enjoy enhanced control, stability and grip—it's one smooth ride
  • Base or topsheet color may vary from online photo
  • Binding features DIN 3 - 10 release settings

      Comments about Volkl RTM 73 Skis with Bindings - Men's - 2011/2012:

      The first few moments in the Volkl RTM's told the whole story, the ease with which the skis carved through the snow in deep corn or icy spring conditions at Mt Hood was fantastic. The rocker style combined with the edging flexibility at my intermediate level provided extreme fun and great control. Finishing the run at high speeds the RTM 73's and locked in Marker Bindings provided safe cruising and a fast downhill: Thanks VOLKL!

      Service and delivery comments:

      After discovering some amazing late season deals on the VOLKL RTM's on REI.com, I immediately dialed and within minutes had the skis, new boots and poles headed to Portland REI, thanks to the professional and knowledgeable sales team. The Portland staff, especially the folks in the skip shop who dialed in my new boots to the VOLKS were great! Cant wait to shop REI.com and PDX again!

        The RTM 73's performed awesomely in the spring corn at Hood. Their turning, edging and response was spot on, and downhill speed was sweet! cant wait to try them in powder in the winter 2013! Thank you VOLKL (and MARKER for the tight, excellent bindings) for a killer product!

          My FIRST shaped skis, at an affordable REI price, and shipped to Juneau,AK promptly, as promised.

          First time out at Eaglecrest, Juneau's city-owned ski area, HUGE difference from my previously normal standard ski rental package.
