Volkl katana 108 2024 177cm

More than a decade after the original Volkl Katana redefined big-mountain charging, the revamped Volkl Katana 108 entered the scene to show core skiers that the industry hasn’t forgotten them. Back for 2023-2024 with fresh graphics, the Volkl Katana 108 skis like it’s on a mission. It is one of the heaviest and least rockered skis around 108mm underfoot and features less taper than most comparable skis in the industry. While casual skiers just clicked away from this page upon reading that, fans of the OG Katana—and aggressive, directional freeride skiers in general—are screaming, “Tell me more!” So here it is. Unlike the original Katana, this new iteration does feature a few of Volkl’s quintessential design flourishes. Titanal Frame construction gives you metal where you need it without overburdening the ski. Meanwhile, 3D Radius sidecut helps you make turns of all shapes and sizes at all speeds. These updates make the new Katana 108 a bit more accessible than the previous version, and it matches the Volkl Confession that it replaced in being surprisingly versatile. Rather than water the ski down, these updates give you a refined and intuitive ride. We recommend these skis for ex-racers turned freeriders and advanced-expert skiers who refuse to compromise when they attack big terrain.
