"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""I’ve skied a lot of all-mountain chargers, but the Mantra 88 hits a rare sweet spot—it holds like a race ski when the terrain gets firm, but it's surprisingly intuitive when linking turns. Völkl’s tweaks to the Titanal and carbon tip make it smoother and more playful than ever.""There’s a reason the Mantra 88 Skis have become a staple for hard-charging skiers everywhere—they’re built to adapt, no matter what the mountain serves up. Völkl’s 2026 update keeps the DNA that made this ski iconic and sharpens the edge—literally. Tailored Titanal and carbon upgrades make for a smoother, more damp ride with enhanced stability, even at top speeds. With a multilayer wood core and full sidewalls, the Mantra 88 grips aggressively in firm snow, but the 3D Radius Sidecut adds surprising agility in tighter terrain. Tip and tail rocker keeps it versatile, so whether we’re trenching groomers, slicing through chop, or threading trees on a storm day, these skis are always locked in."
