With the redesigned Mantra 88, Völkl offers a medium waist-width model with modern features, that hits the core of current demands for maximum versatility on and off piste as well as powerful turns in all snow conditions. Redefined during the redesign, the new Mantra 88 comes with innovative Völkl technologies that now provide more dynamics, pop and accessibility.

The updates culminate in a ski with efficient power transmission and a sporty riding style that provides full control and more maneuverability on groomed slopes and in challenging terrain.

Marker Griffon X 13 MWerks

This performance freeride binding is optimized for lighter riders and is equipped with the same features as its big brother, the Jester X MWerks, apart from a DIN-setting of up to 13. In the coming season, the housing of the TP Elite X toe is made from a single cast. This makes it even lighter, more compact and therefore more stable. The anti-ice rail is more robust than ever, thanks to the new alloy. The most impressive feature is the incredibly direct power transmission made possible by the integrated brake, allowing a stand height of 14 mm instead of the previous 24 mm. On the new TP Elite X toe, the stand height is an impressive 9 mm.

Whether in the park, in the pipe, or off-piste, the Griffon X 13 MWerks delivers super-precise control with a Z-value of 4 to 13, allowing the ski, binding, and boot to merge into a single unit.
