It has become a symbol of VÖLKL lightweight construction. The distinctive characteristic of this technology is a raised central ridge that sharply levels out toward the edge, both in front of and behind the binding. This reduces the inertial mass around the fulcrum to a minimum and significantly enhances the agility of the ski. At the same time, the center ridge allows for a precise dimensioning of the hardness distribution, which leads to an especially harmonious flex on the ski. Despite the weight savings, the 3D.RIDGE ensures that there is no compromise whatsoever in the ski‘s durability and elasticity.

The Dual Wood Core construction consists of the wooden core extending across the width of the ski body and is positioned within the central binding area. The Dual Wood Core delivers extra power under foot and allows easier and lighter flexing at the tip and tail for a smooth, somewhat forgiving performance.

Effect:
Makes it easier to turn the ski. The cambered area underneath the foot and at the tail provides control and support for novices and intermediates.
