The Völkl Katana V.Werks Skis are both lean for accessing those hare-to-get-to terrain goals and mean enough to slay the crazy snow conditions you just may find there.
Whether you use the V.Werks as a nimble in-bounds ride or a ripping backcountry stick, this is about as light as you can go and not give up guts for the downhill.
3D.Ridge Carbon construction means the ski is normal thickness in the center and tapers to just about nothing at the edges, and ICE.OFF topsheets keep snow buildup to a minimum.
A V.Werkable solution for the hardcore backcountry charger.
