Volkl is 100 years old this year, and as milestones go, it’s a pretty big one.
It took 175 days.
The Volkl story starts in Straubing, Germany, and the name is that of the Volkl family.
The early skis were called Vostras, a contraction of Volkl Straubing.
It helps that the new Revolt skis, from the 90 to the 121 are ridiculously fun.
Jib League arrives and MDV is one of the first brands on board.
They picked up Kye Petersen this season too, can’t say fairer than that.

The Karma
Before the Wall/Revolt 87, there was the Karma.
And it was a beast of a ski, loved from Newschoolers to TGR.
They ripped on groomers, were super stable on jumps, and held up to a beating.
Perhaps it’s time for the Goat-ama to make a comeback?
And Dylan Hood,enough said.
The tail rocker is flatter and doesn’t have a twin tip, while the nose rocker is shorter.
This is a ski designed more for modern-day big mountain skiing, stomping tricks, and charging big lines.
