Volkl Deacon 80 Alpine Skis 2023

If you don't want to compromise choosing the right slopes, if you want to be on top of your game in every snow condition, you need to take a closer look at the Völkl Deacon 80 Ski with tip and tail rocker. Built with 3D.Ridge and a 3D.Glass construction, this ski features Völkl's 3D radius sidecut technology to make you feel at home anywhere you ski. It lifts the carving performance of the ski into another dimension. The new LowRide XL binding with GripWalk compatibility offers an extra low standheight for a super direct feel and power transfer.

• Suggested Use
  • All-Mountain, Groomers
• Camber / Rocker Style
  • Tip and Tail Rocker
• Shape
  • Directional
  • 3D Radius Sidecut
    • Long Tip and Tail Radii
      • Usage of long radii at tip and tail for big turns and high speed, easy steering and maneuverability. Disruption resistant at the tip, with no radius limitation and ease of turn exit.
    • Tight Center Radius
      • Usage of shorter radius in the center for short turns and lower speed makes it extremely easy to initiate short turns and strikingly agile, offering effortlessly smooth short turns.
• Flex
  • Responsive flex pattern in the tips for easy transitions and versatility pushing off the tails
• Core Material
  • Multilayer Woodcore
    • The combination of beech and poplar results in an extremely durable wood core composed of hard wood in the binding area and lighter wood around.
• Construction
  • 3D.GLASS
    • 3D.GLASS is Völkl's development to furthermore improve overall ski performance and stability even in critical snow conditions. Compared to classic glass constructions the three-dimensional and multiple-folded glass layers in the tip and in the tail area result in an increased edge grip and a more vivid rebound behavior in turns
  • 3D.RIDGE
    • Central Woodcore Ridge with superslim wings to significantly reduce weight and swing weight and keep the stability where necessary. 3D.Ridge technology is probably the most extreme and effective construction technique that currently exists. It has become a symbol of Völkl lightweight construction. The distinctive characteristic of this technology is a raised central ridge that sharply levels out towards the edges, 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 are no compromises in the ski's durability and elasticity.
  • Powered by Steel
    • A steel layer in the ski provides very good durability, controlled flex and smooth skiing in faster speeds.
• Sidewall
  • Full Sidewalls
• Edges
  • All Völkl ski edges, except for the FIS Race and Adult Pro models, are manufactured and sharpened with the following standard angles: 1.4° base bevel, 87.6° sidewall.
• Base
  • P-Tex 2100
  • Zebra Structure
    • Aggressive structure offering excellent precision, turn initiation and steering, smooth drifting and turn exit agility.
• Binding Mounting System
  • System Skis
    • Comes with Marker IPT Lowride XL 13 FR Demo GW bindings (packaged separately to slide onto installed rails).
      • Especially for wider skis, the 10 mm lower stand height for increased agility and better edge grip.
      • Separated toe and heel for free flex at ski center, meaning less effort to bend the ski, quicker edge changes, and more agility in short turns.
      • For hard and mixed snow conditions.
