More powder for the nation !Völkl Snowboards wishes you a snow-white bluebird winter.

Karsten MohrDivision Manager International

Finest German engineering work and many patents that have improved snowboarding – that‘s what Völkl Snowboards has represented for 15 years.

We don´t produce “bulk goods”, but high-tech boards for riders who are looking for great materials and top-notch riding characteristics.Together with our team, we are permanently working meticulously to make our boards faster and easier to turn and let them keep up with the strains of an international trick level that is progressing each season.

For four years we have been continuously working on becoming more eco-friendly, step by step: In 2010 we were awarded with the Eurosima Eco Award, and in 2011 we were granted the sought-after Ecoride Certificate, so we suppose we are on the right way. Until today we could improve the performance of five boards in our line thanks to eco-friendly materials. The t-shirts and hoodies with our Legacy Label are all made of biological cotton, without genetic engineering and toxic chemicals – here, we also follow and live by the slogan “fair & eco-friendly!” If shops and consumers demand more eco-friendly products, we will push even more in this direction.

Furthermore, we have developed a sensational split board for powder rats and backcountry fans, which is well thought-out in every detail and unique in its performance. The feedback and pre-orders after the first tests in 2011 exceeded all our expectations.

Our Horror-Shock Absorber is sustainable, too: If a board doesn´t break, it has a longer life; and everything that lives longer and that your heart is attached to follows the thought of sustainability.

But shops and riders can also look forward riding 12 models with a specific wide version in different lengths as well as a huge selection of rocker and camber models. And our Fastec bindings fans will be stoked by a new collection packed with great innovations.

for us it‘s more than just a slogan ...

HArd AS SteeL, eH Armor wood!

The Völkl Horror-Shock Absorber is made of a specific wood with high struc tural density: Two H-shaped inlays made of so-called armor wood are directly grouted with the wooden core in the bindings inserts area into the direction of nose and tail. They absorb all shocks and impacts without moaning respec tively and without causing micro cracks in the wooden core. Tests in our Race Lab have proven that these inlays im prove the tor-sional characteristics, de liver a stronger pop and make the boards extremely strong and durable – even the weight of a compact car wouldn’t be a problem! Not to mention huge jumps and hard landings ...

> Shock Absorber: Vice SQD / Riot SQD Rocker / Riot SQD Camber / Cashew / Cashew Split / Dice / Spade / Impress SQD

We at Völkl know how important it is to choose the right bindings, and that’s why we try to progress and improve our models each year. Why are constantly trying to adjust them even more to the individual rider. For 2012/13 we developed a whole new bindings range! The Prime Alu features a new flexible and super light Asymmetrical Pro-Highback, and the Choice Alu now rides even more lively thanks to the Asymmetric Highback’s harder flex – due to the tool-free forward lean adjustment with the rotating wheel in the lever, both can be adjusted to the favored riding style within the blink of an eye! Coming along are the two brand-new models Invert and Vision that can deal with any terrain, thanks to their flexible plastic baseplate. Therefore, every rider will find the right bindings, no matter if looking for a stiffer model with direct power transmission, or a smoother model that perfectly adapts to the board’s flex.

When in the mountains you should focus on the important things, that’s what our popular Fastec Binding System is there for: It makes strapping in and out a walk in the park! The bindings get adjusted only once to the boots and the riding style, from then on the system is offering you perfect hold. The handling is super easy and with one hand only – without sitting down and tightening your bindings each time: Just step in, lift up the highback and close the Auto-Release-Buckle. During long lift rides you can use the comfort modus: Push the Auto-Release-Buckle and the front strap loosens, meaning your feet stay happy. After the run, you just fold down the highback, the ankle strap opens automatically and you can comfortably exit your bindings. Maximum freestyle performance and top-notch comfort – that’s what the (bindings) future looks like!

Of course, we are stoked about our eco awards because they prove that we are on the right track. However, we also know that there is still a lot to do if we want to conserve our na-ture for future generations. In doing so, each of us – no matter if business or individual, shop or snowboarder – can make a contribution by joining us on our path.

PS: Our environmentally-acceptable products often perform better than conventional boards.

By now, five boards can proudly present their eco friendly sealing: The Cashew, Cashew Split, Yavana, Vice SQD and, as the latest addition, the Soul Surfer mainly consist of alterna-tive materials and resources! These boards don’t have a plastic topsheet and their ABS sidewalls have been replaced by flexible wood (Yavana, Cashew, Cashew Split, Soul Surfer). This saves 400 grams of plastic – when considering an average board weight of 3 kilograms, that’s a lot! We also reduced the use of resin

and other toxic materials to the minimum. Although the black base might look inconspicuous, it’s pretty shrewd as it is made of recycled ma-terial, so are the edges for which we used 60 % recycled steel.

The awards and encouragement from the snowboard world prove that Völkl is on the right ecological track for a better future! Every person can make their own contribution through his or her buying decision ...

Who doesn’t know the feeling: To earn things before rewarding your-self? Those who hike up the mountain with a split board instead of simply taking the lift will be rewarded with a way more intense feeling during the run down – as well as untracked powder fields, the fusion with nature or a perfect kicker spot in the middle of nowhere. The ideal buddy for endless adventures off-piste is the Cashew Split with Powder / All Moun-tain Rocker shape. It combines the back country freestyle of the Convex Powder Base with the bigger oper-ating radius of a split board. Our goal was an eco-friendly, lightweight con-struction with easy handling. Goal achieved: The No-Topsheet Con struc -tion, wooden sidewalls and hard -wood veneer inlays replaced a huge amount of plastic, while the base and edges are made of recycled raw materials. Some high-tech was added in the form of a complete Carbon lower beam that reduces weight, but also improves torsional charac ter is-tics and the flex.

Fast, faster, Voilé Split Kit! Only a few grabs and you can divide the two board parts, or respectively put them together again using the specifically designed bindings fixa-tion. Thanks to the Micro Fleece on the skin bag you can even clean the base from snow or moisture before putting on the skins. Then you only have to mount the skins using the Skin Pin System, fold out the poles and switch on your LVS – go shred! Given a favorable avalanche report of course.

Who doesn´t pay attention to riding style, weight, size and shoe size can literally get stroke out in a second: Too small of feet on a wide board mean that not enough pressure can be put on the edges – the board gets dull in its reaction and hard to turn. When wearing big boots on a narrow board, toes and heel overlap and lead to edge catching slams on icy slopes or even a bruised heel after jumps!

With a show size of 9 (MP* 26) or smaller, we rec om mend a narrow board below 260 mm. Boot size 10 (MP* 28) is falling into the “gray zone” – depending on the length of the shoe sole, the stance and the range of riding, it might be already advisable to ride a wide board. Those who are wearing boots bigger than size 11 (MP* 28) should buy an extra wide shape as it will offer the best board per formance and direct power transmission.

norMAl

This category features boards with a width from 250 mm to 259 mm. They are not too wide, but also not too narrow and the perfect choice for riders with a standard boot size (MP 25-28).

nArrow

NARROW boards are not only suitable for snowboarders with small feet but also for ladies. Their width is ranging around 240 mm, and their shape as well as flex is specifically designed for small show sizes and light-weight riders. Thanks to this category the choice of women’s boards raised from three to six boards! (MP < 26)

Selecta 158 / Flavor / Melody / Squad Jr 132-140 & 144

ExTrA widE

EXTRA WIDE means boards that are about 270 mm wide – ideal for riders with big feet. Thanks to their subtle shapes, these boards offer great response and riding despite their width (MP > 28).

Mid widE

MID WIDE boards with a width around 260 mm are either recommended for snowboarders with shoe size 10/11 riding boots with a short shoe sole length or for riders with regular shoe size who have bulky boots with a long shoe sole length but still do not fall into the EXTRA WIDE range (MP 27-29.0).

Only the best fOr the best: Our prOs are lOving this bOard!

The Squad Prime is equipped with a 100 percent freestyle attitude and the best choice for those who want to push the limits. This board feels at home on big kicker lines and huge powder jumps, just like you! The approved Pro Camber Shape allows for perfect control even at high speed, while the new and a bit steeper nose shape kicks in while riding powder. We completely revised the Horror-Shock Absorber: Its hardwood veneer inlays make the board extremely strong and can even withstand the weight of a compact car, respectively any big booter. At the same time, the flex stays harmonic, and the pop is so persistent that it will still boost you on any rail year after year. The extremely stable wooden sidewall made of bulletproof armor wood is equipped with a brand-new TPU dampening that can even absorb the hardest beatings, for example in icy parks. The shiny base in infrared, a color that has been specifi­cally mixed for Völkl, means some extra points for our pro board and gets a lot of attention with massive airtime.

thOse whO can, dO: the mOst versatile freestyle bOard ever

This baby accompanies you everywhere! Park & rails? For sure! The forgiving Freestyle Rocker with its short effective edge is extremely easy to turn, making any possible and impossible jibs a literal walk in the park. Kicker? No problem! We put some killer pop into the triple Premium Carbon Weave, while the revised Horror-Shock Absorber will enable you to immediately turn to the next obstacle even after the heaviest landing. Powder? Of course! The negative camber equips the board with some extra float. This board not only shares the unique base color infrared with the camber version, the Squad Prime, but also the new TPU dampening in the wooden sidewalls, absorbing more shocks and dealing with even the meanest rails and bomb holes. Despite all the brotherly affection, there are also differ ences: While the Squad Prime loves high speed and icy monster jumps, the Rocker version is more into playful riding and taking freestyle skills to the next level.

being green is never wrOng: ecO-friendly twin-tip rOcker that rips the park

This board not only looks like real art, it is art – who else manages to put so much freestyle under an eco-friendly Hemp/Canvas Topsheet? The Vice SQD combines the success- ful basic features of the traditional Squad series with a True Twin-Tip Sidecut. Stomping tricks has never been so easy! In powder, the Freestyle Rocker Shape offers more float, while at the same time jibbing the park will be as easy as strapping in, thanks to the Premium Carbon Weave that provides additional pop. Integrated Shock Absorber and V­Flex fiberglass weave will have you feeling comfort­able on the most challenging kicker lines. Also, the black, sintered base made of recycled material along with the recycled steel edges and a finish of biodegradable wax prove that the green consciousness doesn‘t stop with the topsheet. You won’t get more value for your money, and you’ll have a better conscience too!

made fOr tOmOrrOw‘s prOs: tOp-nOtch freestyle perfOrmance fOr any pOcket

The Riot SQD is the perfect board for those who want to become a well-known freestyler one day. Why? On the one hand, it is full of high-tech, but at the same time sold at a very reasonable price. It benefits from the know­how of the traditional Squad Twin-Tip series: Triaxial weave and V­flex inlays provide perfect power transmission, while the inte grated Shock Absorber and the Premium Carbon Weave support ambitious kicker attacks. Not to mention that the board is extremely versatile and adapts itself to your growing skills. Therefore, we have combined the True Twin­Tip Side cut with a specific Freestyle Camber Shape – you‘ll feel the difference immediately: Thanks to the shorter contact length, the board offers a playful and forgiving ride in the park; on the slope and in the pipe, the full edge length offers stability and great edge hold, just like a normal camber board. The park is calling – thanks to the new wide edition; this also means riders with big feet!

While the camber version likes speedy slopes, steep kickers and pipes, the Riot SQD Rocker turns the entire mountain and downtown into its very own playground. The forgiv-ing Freestyle Rocker Shape helps you jib your head off and the negative camber provides for some extra float so you can stick the even most bombed out landings in the powder. This playful board is not only perfect for any pocket, but also supports your ambitions as a future pro thanks to loads of high-tech: Premium Carbon Weave and Shock Ab - sorber offer crazy pop, triaxial weave and V-Flex inlays perfect power transmission.

You can choose: You love kicker and pipe? Take the Riot SQD Camber. You are into New School jib tricks, but also like to visit the backcountry from time to time? The Riot SQD Rocker will be your best friend! Both boards are available in two wide lengths ...

sliding instead Of riding: a very special jib weapOn

“The yellow pill is escaping through the speed wonderland and only has one goal: the nirvana.” Not only our designers set their fantasy free with this magic stick. We wanted an uncompromising jib board for those who slide more than they ride. With the Jibster SQD’s combination of Rocker Shape and Convex Slide Base, not only do the nose and tail “float” in the air, the edges between your bindings do too … thanks to the elevated sidewalls. They are rein forced with a specific TPU dampening so not even the toughest rail slide can do this jib machine any harm. Premium Carbon Weave, V­Flex fiberglass and triaxial weave provide killer pop and perfect flex adjustment. One­foot tricks have never been so easy thanks to the partial Grip Lacquer. The Jibster SQD with Kink Nose will be your best jib buddy from Day One!

For a better Future: uncompromising backcountry Freestyle board with green consciousness

Airtime is everything in backcountry freestyle riding and the Cashew is your ticket to unexpected heights. The per -fectly adjusted dimensions of the board‘s core, in combi-nation with specific hardwood inlays, provide for an extra share of pop and bounce. Thanks to sidewalls with a new TPU dampening that absorb even the heaviest shocks, you won’t have any problems coming back down – no matter if on park kickers or in bombed out powder landings. The Convex Powder Base guarantees that you will be able to ride out your trick or prepare for the next jump as the spe-cific shape of the base gives you maximum float in any terrain. The wider board feels narrow, rides very playful despite its length and boosts you out of every bomb hole. The Cashew has even won an Eco Innovation Award as the wooden veneer topsheet replaces the common plastic top - sheet – saving weight and taking care of the environment! So do the minimal amounts of resin, wood instead of plas - tic sidewalls and recycled resources for the base as well as steel edges. We say: The Cashew is an eco-friendly All-Mountain / Powder Rocker with top-notch backcountry performance.

the backcountry is yours: super light split board For endless adVentures oFF piste

Just like the Cashew, the Cashew Split Kit is the perfect choice for any backcountry adventure thanks to maximum float, shock-absorbing wooden sidewalls with TPU damp-ening and a weight-saving as well as eco-friendly No-Top - sheet Construction. But at the same time, the board is not just a split Cashew: Super light carbon replaces veneer wood reinforcements saving additional weight for an easy- going hiking experience. Furthermore, the insert positions have a bit more set back – hello powder runs! You even have the option to ride the board as a short tail on the very back position. The flex is a bit stiffer as the Cashew‘s to provide for better hiking characteristics and more stability at high speed. With the unique Völkl Skin Pin System you can set up the custom-fit skins within the blink of an eye, after you have cleaned the base with the skin bag‘s micro fleece part. Only a few movements and you convert your board into two wide touring skis or the other way around. Without any tools at all! No question that you as well as the environment will profit from the eco-friendly Cashew Split!

going big! extra wide all-mountain Freestyle board For riders with shoe size 44 (us 11)

A board for riders who use to be affected by their shoe size. With the extra wide Dice, hang ups are so yesterday! We didn’t just take a normal board and simply add some extra width but developed a specific shape to get the perfect blend: not too direct, but responsive at the same time – made for progressive riding and the latest freestyle tricks. But wait, there is even more: The Easy Rocker Shape offers you plenty of float in the powder and a playful and forgiving board on the slope or in the park. The integrated Shock Absorber adds some smoothness as it takes the bite out of even the hardest landings. When going fast, the harder torsion and the Directional Twin-Tip Sidecut provide for full control. The Dice is not just a wide board, but an all-round package for big boys.

“Fun, fun, fun”, sings the Spade. This board wants to play everywhere: in the park, on the slope, in the backcountry or the pipe.

This lady is like your best friend: You can do everything together with her and take her everywhere with you! The Directional Freestyle Sidecut allows for progressive riding in the backcountry, on the slope and in the park. It offers strong edge hold for carving and, at the same time, is soft enough for some serious jibbing! To put a smile on your face on powder days, we equipped the board with a Rocker Shape for maximum float. This also works very well on kickers because it won’t turn its back on you after a messed up landing. We know that girls want more than just a good- looking board: The wild collage and bright colors on the eco-friendly Hemp/Canvas Topsheet symbolize the free-dom that this cruiser offers you on the mountain. Thanks to minimal use of resin and other toxins, a base mainly made of recycled material and wooden sidewalls with TPU damp ening the Yavana saves more than 400 grams of plastic! This board is not a superficial beauty, but convinces with personal qualities ...

“THE ACE OF SPRAYS”: THE ulTimATE SuRFbOARd FOR POwdER!

This is the ultimate in flagship Freeride boards! The ex­tremely light woodcore with its lower carbon beam and the ultra­light topsheet set a whole new benchmark for weight saving. The sophisticated combination of Pin­Tail and Rocker Shape provide maximum flotation in powder, while the unique Powder Channel remains the core fea­ture in the tail – it imitates the fin of a surfboard, causing a surf­like feel that is second to none. Zero powder? The softer Pin­Tail flex and the specifically sintered race base make the Selecta carve easily on the slope – just lean over and go for it! For real freeriders this board is the symbol for ultimate freedom in the mountains and on the search for secret runs.

FlOAT On THE SlOPE: HigH-TECH CRuiSER FOR EASY RidERS

Even though we completely revised the Soul Surfer, the Pin­Tail Shape together with its All­Mountain / Powder Rocker still makes you float on groomed slopes as if it was bottom less powder! We just pimped our cruiser and made it a bit “greener”: Thanks to a wooden veneer topsheet we could relinquish the common plastic topsheet and huge amounts of fiberglass. Combined with the new Völkl Premium lower beam hiding under the boards‘ mini mal­istic retro style, you get a flex that knows how to handle any situation. The Car bon Edition is not only lighter, but also more lively and offers smooth control when racing down the line. The set ting also feels soft – no matter if in powder or on hard packed snow. Powerful turns have never been so effortless and gentle! This is where the wooden sidewalls with the new TPU dampening can show their skills: absorbing shocks and bumps. Despite loads of high­tech, the Soul Surfer stays true to its roots – it is no racing machine, that‘s what we have the Coal XT for, but a real Easy Rider.

liVElY, FAST And STAblE: A bOARd FOR REAl SPEEd junkiES

“Life waits for no man,” and the Coal XT lives by this motto. Speed is its passion: thanks to a significantly longer effective edge, the combination of Pin­Tail Shape and Pro Camber with its Nose Rocker provides perfect grip while perform­ing speedy maneuvers – it rides like it’s on rails. Special inlays (Smart Torsion Inlay) that are inserted below the Anti­Vibrations­System increase the stability of the board at high speed. The Völkl Race Lab did a great job with this All­Mountain stick and even developed a whole new side ­ wall construction: the Race Sidewall is made of a specific base material and can be waxed according to the tempera ­ ture of the snow. The result? Less friction, more speed.

RidERS REAdY – ATTEnTiOn – gO: THiS bOARd lOVES SPEEEEEEEEEd!

Until now, only our world cup riders could enjoy this racy board. But since more and more speed junkies were sending requests and looking for the ultimate race on their home mountain, the Coal Race went to serial production. The know­how is borrowed from the Coal XT, but our Race Lab made some adjustments for the race missions in the world cup: For example, the Pin­Tail Shape is a bit more defined and set with an XL radius; furthermore, specific reinforcements provide for a stiffer flex. The Völkl Premium Carbon lower beam takes care of smooth control and high speed while the VRL Split Base and the Race Sidewall offer maximum acceleration. Thanks to the Nose Rocker, the banks and rollers of a boardercross course are a walk in the park as the contact length feels shorter. Thus, making it easier to execute speed checks in the deepest riding tracks. Ride the board on the edge and the long contact length offers perfect hold on icy slopes. No matter if world cup stop or fun race, people will only see your back in the future …

Catching an edge is not an issue anymore! The Easy Rocker Shape and soft flex, that are forgiving when learning the first turns and supporting a rapid learning process, are a huge help – after only a few tries, the kids will slide down the slope without any problems! A safe adventure even without bindings, thanks to the extensive Grip-Lacquer on the board. This feature helps you during long T-bar rides or trying your first one-foot tricks ...

a Tough cookie: our resisTanT renTal board wiTh easy rocker shape

To make this all-rounder even more indestructible for the rental business, we not only armed the board with integrated plastic tip and tail protectors, but also with a Mini-Cap Construction: an all-round protection that prepares the board for beatings and abrasion and makes it more stable. Those who want to play it safe can add the extra-strong plastic protectors on nose and tail.

Triaxial fiberglass strengthens the board from the inside, for strenuous rental days, while a soft flex and the Easy Rocker Shape guarantee a forgiving ride. Thanks to a scratch-resistant topsheet and integrated Grip-Lacquer stomp pad, the board will still be looking good at the end of the season. Furthermore, a super-strong base allows for more services than a normal board can handle! Depending on the length, the board also features different colored sidewalls including a length print and an integrated barcode. Extra bonus: The punk rock design doesn‘t make you come out as a “rental rider”, but lets you shred the park with self-confidence ...

characTerThe established Fastec System particularly makes sense in the rental business: Stepping into your bindings has never been so easy and fast, no more tedious tightening anymore – the gained time can rather be spent on the slope or in the park! The forward lean adjustment can be comfortably controlled through the highback lever, while the highback, with its ergonomic pad, is size-adjustable and gets along with any rider.

CHARACTER

Our team doesn´t want any other bindings! No surprise as the Fastec Prime Alu is the lightest model on the market. A real flyweight, also thanks to the brand-new, rotatable Asymmetric Pro-Highback with its tool-free forward lean adjustment in the lever. Our team rider Chris ’CK’ Kröll just loves its smooth flex, which makes tweaks and bones a walk in the park. But, the Fastec Prime Alu does not only get along very well with parks and big booters, our team rider and Freeride World Champ 2010 Aline Bock, wouldn´t want any other bindings for her backcountry trips either; she knows that she can rely on the direct power transmission of the hard baseplate when racing down steep slopes or leaving high spray fountains in endless powder. We know that every run on the mountain counts, that´s why the Fastec Prime Alu goes full speed from the very first second: Step in, lift up the highback and go shred whatever terrain you prefer!

CHARACTER

The handling of the Fastec Choice Alu is in no way inferior to its big brother, the Fastec Prime Alu. An aluminum base -plate and the somehow harder flex offer a very good power transmission. The forward lean adjustment has been inte grat ed into the lever of the Asymmetric High-back and can be modified within seconds. Are you looking for a jib session? Just reduce the forward lean for a more forgiving board han dling. The rubberized Anti-Slip Toe Strap and Anti-Shock Pads are also ideal for jibbing because your boots won´t slip, even with loosely tight-ened bindings. A steep couloir or an icy slope is waiting for you? Then get yourself a bit more forward lean; this improves the power transmission and the hold of your edges. Bindings that are into anything – available in two color combinations and four sizes.

CHARACTER

The latest addition to the Fastec family: The brand-new Fastec Invert commits itself to high-quality, using flexible plastic instead of aluminum. This makes the bindings‘ flex smoother and adjusts better to the board‘s flex. Perfect for beginners because it makes the bindings more forgiving. Also, many jib experts and freestyle maniacs prefer a softer tuning, while other pros demand a direct power trans mis-sion that only a hard flex can offer. To prepare the Fastec Invert for strenuous days, we equipped them with a fully cushioned foot bed with Anti-Shock Pads, that can absorb even the hardest landings, as well as a sym metrical high-back that guarantees maximum freedom of movement when working on your freestyle tricks. Additional bonus: For smaller sizes we offer an anatomically adjusted baseplate as well as lower highbacks and smaller straps.

CHARACTER

All beginnings are difficult but we want to make it as easy as possible for the youngsters. That´s why we developed the superlight Fastec Vision Kids! Its smooth flex is perfect for the first turns as it makes these bindings very forgiving and easy to handle. Additional comfort is provided through the baseplate, which is specifically made for small feet, and the convenient 3D Straps. To make strapping in even fun, we equipped the Fastec Vision Kids with top-notch technology: The bindings only need to be adjusted to the boot the first time. From then on you can close them with only a flick of the wrist and they will offer you perfect hold for the rest of the season.

CHARACTER

With the Fastec Vision Jr. we wanted to offer kids the same comfort and support adults get as they are the next pro generation! Therefore, we produced the new Fastec 4 base - plate with a medium flex in a specific junior size that pro-vides great hold and smooth riding at the same time, just like its “big brother” – perfect for the first turns on steep slopes and easy tricks in the park! No question that the popu - lar Fastec technology shouldn´t be missed either: Once adjusted to the boot, these bindings offer perfect hold for the rest of the season.

Technical DaTa EffEctivE EdgE LEngthThe length of the edge that is effectively in contact with the snow when the board is turning (widest point of the nose to widest point of the tail).

SEtbackThe entire board’s shape, waist and binding insert positions have been shifted from the centre towards the rear of the board. Freestyle boards have minimal setback or none at all (e.g. Squad Line: 0 mm). When the binding position is centered, the nose and tail are of the same length and flex. Freeride boards feature a greater setback (e.g. Selecta 175: 50 mm). More setback enhances board control and powers edge grip at maximum speed. A longer nose also enables more flotation in powder.

StancEBy having different binding insert positions, the rider may fine-tune the board’s riding characteristics. Freestylers usually prefer a flatter stance angle of +15° to +21° on the front foot and -3° to -18° on the back foot. Freeriders tend to ride with a +15° to +30° angle on the front foot and a -6° to +10° angle on the back foot.

SiDecuTS Our boards feature different sidecuts depending on the terrain they are designed for. The special thing is that con - trary to a radial sidecut, a Völkl sidecut consists of several different blended sidecuts (therefore the indicated radial sidecut is just a reference value!) Benefits compared to a simple radial sidecut are:> Edge pressure is perfectly distributed along the entire edge length in carving turns.> It is easy to actively determine the turning radius by minimal shifting of weight (a conventional radial sidecut determines the radius of the turn).> The nose is easy to control and does not dig into the snow. This is why all Völkl snowboards are flexible and easy to ride, while offering great precision and control.

truE twin-tip frEEStyLE SidEcutThis shape is known for a narrower radius and shorter effective edge. A symmetrical sidecut with identical nose and tail flex delivers perfect and safe riding char ac teristics, both regular and switch. Boards with a True Twin-Tip Side - cut are extremely forgiving and also very lively. Whether it’s backcountry, park or pipe – these boards provide the ultimate freestyle performance!> Squad prime / Squad rocker / vice SQd / riot SQd camber / riot SQd rocker / Jibster SQd / impress SQd / Squad Jr. / Jibby

dirEctionaL twin-tip SidEcutOur brand new sidecut combines the twin-tip freestyle characteristics with the advantages of a directional stance. The insert positions have a minimal setback of 10 mm. You will hardly notice the setback when riding switch, but in the backcountry and on icy slopes it provides more edge pressure and better grip! 2 in 1: All-Mountain and Freestyle characteristics when riding the backcountry, while being a classic twin-tip board for the park if set up with 0 mm setback.> dice / Spade

dirEctionaL frEEStyLE SidEcutPerfect for all-mountain riders who feel as at home in the park as in the backcountry! The more moderate, directional sidecut has been tuned to work perfectly with a setback of 20 mm. Therefore the boards ride more direct and allow fast edge-to-edge turning.

The shape and its playful riding characteristics are the best buddy for freestyle moves in the park, while the longer nose offers more flotation in powder. Nose and tail are not identical but these boards can also be ridden with a setback of 0 mm.> cashew / cashew Split / yavana / flavor / Melody / dash / rental rocker

dirEctionaL frEEridE SidEcutDirectional boards have more setback and thus a longer nose. A different nose and tail flex combined with an asymmetrical sidecut radius provides more edge pressure and control at high speeds. The nose is not only wider but also has a different concave radius and raise compared to the tail. It’s perfect for more flotation in powder snow and fast edge-to-edge turns on the groomers.> Selecta / coal Xt / Soul Surfer

dirEctionaL racE SidEcutVölkl’s Race Lab developed a special sidecut concept for the Coal Race Edition. The pin-tail shape with its shortened nose and concave tail might look strange to a greenhorn, but when it is all about racing the smooth tip and tail rocker and its big radius make sense. The result? The apparently shorter edge smoothens speed checks, while the board feels extremely playful on jumps and bumps; at the same time you are blessed with great edge hold and perfect control at maximum speed.> coal race

pin-taiL ShapEThis Directional Freeride Sidecut incorporates even more setback with the nose being considerably wider than the tail. This flex modification, as well as the different concave radii of the nose and tail, are among the characteristics of this shape. It makes for a unique surfy feel in the snow, with extra benefits in the powder: the nose floats perfectly while the tail sinks in. On the groomers, this shape allows for quick edge-to-edge turning and increased edge pressure along the tail.> Selecta / coal race / coal Xt / cashew / cashew Split / Soul Surfer / yavana

ROcKeR / ReVeRSe caMBeR ShaPe cOncePT “Rocker” is a well-established term among surfers, snow-boarders and wakeboarders. It describes a board shape that incorporates a negative/reverse camber. Boards with a “conventional” camber feature two contact points when the board is lying flat on the ground, one in the nose and the other one in the tail. Due to the Rocker Shape’s negative camber the board touches the ground at one point, which is in the middle of the board. The nose and tail are floating in the air. The length of this flat section between the bindings of freestyle and freeride boards varies according to the shape profile and intended use.As early as the 80s the ski and snowboard industry were experimenting with the first construction attempts of such a shape. Völkl Snowboards deliver an entire concept behind the current trend; a concept that is based on state-of-the-art laboratory tests and years of experience and know-how.In theory, a Rocker or “Reverse Camber” Shape provides better float in powder and is generally easy to turn and playful. However, if you just try to re-bend a conventional board shape, the board loses its dampening properties and edge hold. This is why all other parameters have to be re-adjusted, too. Form follows function!> Squad rocker / vice SQd / riot SQd rocker / Jibster SQd / cashew / cashew Split / dice / Spade / Selecta / Soul Surfer / yavana / impress SQd / flavor / Squad Jr. / Jibby / rental rocker rockEr-SpEcific SidEcutSDepending on the range of use, the specific adaptation of sidecuts emphasizes the board’s individual riding characteristics. Nose & tail become a bit wider and the sidecuts in these areas are equipped with smaller radii. Therefore Völkl boards with rocker offer amazing edge pressure and the same grip as boards with conventional camber on icy slopes.

aLL-Mountain / powdEr rockErThis rocker is longer and more concave in the nose than in the tail, which results in maximum float in powder. In the backcountry it offers you playful riding characteristics without sacrificing grip and precise edge-to-edge turns.> Selecta / Soul Surfer / cashew / cashew Split / yavana

frEEStyLE rockErNose and tail are equipped with the same moderate concave radius, which makes jibs and butters a walk in the park. No more edge-catching slams! If you don’t land the trick perfectly, the edge won’t catch immediately and you can still easily turn your board. This shape also provides you with more float in powder, a bonus when it comes to bombed landings and flat powder slopes.> Squad rocker / vice SQd / riot SQd rocker / Jibster SQd / impress SQd

EaSy rockErThe minimal rocker shape makes the board low-key on the slope but it unfolds its full potential in the backcountry and in the park. Easy to handle, extremely lively and for-giving. Newcomers to the Rocker technology can carve on the slope like they used to and enjoy a perfect ride in the powder, but at the same time there is no more edge-catching slams on jumps. The best shape for heaps of fun and fast progression!> dice / Spade / flavor / Squad Jr. / Jibby / rental rocker

conSiStEnt round fLEXAll Völkl Rocker models feature a consistent round flex without “breaks” for the ultimate in edge hold. This provides balanced power transmission and precise control for high-speed runs.

adJuStMEnt of thE corEThe core of all Rocker boards has been worked on in combination with the 3-Section-Flex. The thickness of the wood core has been reduced a bit in between the bindings to give perfectly smooth flex characteristics. Below the bindings, towards the nose and the tail, the core has been thickened a bit compared to last year, which makes the flex a bit stiffer in those areas. The result? No “over-flexing”, but more pop and perfect response when landing on the tail.

3-SEction-fLEXThe flex has been adjusted in three different sections, making the board a bit stiffer along the nose, medium stiff in the middle and stiff along the tail. There is no need for the board to flex a lot in the nose section – the Rocker Shape is enough, it enhances the board’s gliding charac-ter istics in powder. This special construction prevents the board from “over-flexing”. It’ll excel anywhere, even in difficult snow conditions, providing precise control. The flex pattern and distribution of flex intensity is tuned individually for every board with Rocker Shape.

Low tip ShapEThe stronger the Rocker, the flatter the nose. In order to avoid the nose of the board catching into deep snow, our powder masterpieces don’t need a nose with a strong concave radius – the Rocker Shape is enough to prevent the board from digging in the snow. The Selecta and Cashew’s flat concave radius of the nose makes for considerably less snow resistance but a lot more speed in the powder. Freestyle weapons like the Squad, Jibster SQD and Impress SQD also benefit from the new Rocker Shape for powder landings.

caMBeR ShaPe cOncePT “Camber” describes a board shape that incorporates a classic, positive camber. These boards feature two contact points when the board is lying flat on the ground: one in the nose and the other one in the tail. In between those contact points, the board is bowed providing the board with a certain snap that helps cope with the forces un-leashed during a ride. A strong camber provides more edge-hold on icy slopes; a smoother camber makes the board more responsive. Camber boards offer very direct power transmission and great rides when it’s all about speed.

pro caMbErThese boards have a very strong camber and are best for advanced riders who aim for aggressive riding and perfect edge-hold (Coal). But they are also easy to control and offer direct response as well as amazing pop on huge booters (Squad Prime).> Squad prime / coal race / coal Xt

frEEStyLE caMbErThis shape combines a medium camber with an early rise nose and tail. The short contact length makes the board forgiving and allows its easy-to-turn characteristics, which can be of great advantage in the park. When riding on the edge the Freestyle Camber Shape just rides like a normal Camber board.> riot SQd camber

EaSy caMbErA smooth camber shape with an early rise nose and tail. The apparently shorter contact length makes learning turns as easy as 1-2-3, but on icy slopes you get first class edge-hold and direct riding characteristics. This is the perfect alternative to a Rocker shape: not too direct, but also not too playful.> Melody / dash

TOPSheeTS no-topShEEt conStructionTopsheet is not just topsheet! Traditional boards feature a plastic topsheet and the graphics get “back-screened” with topside silk-screening. Using the No-Topsheet Con-struction, the graphics get printed “from above” onto a thin fleece weave, thanks to a specific process, and then get grouted with the board.

Flex Multiple components determine a board’s flex: initial tension, adjustment and sidecut of the core, torsion (depending on materials used in the upper and lower beam), setback and stance. Building hard, stiff boards is not a real challenge for a snowboard manufacturer. Stiff boards do not automatically make for a smoother ride and better control! In reality, stiff boards are unforgiving and need to be ridden very aggressively. This becomes most evident on challenging terrain and in the park. In our boards the know-how is reflected in a softer flex pattern, which guarantees optimal torsional rigidity and ultimate stability. All of these put together make for more playful boards offering agile riding performance and maximum response power. In addition, we have reduced the wood core’s thickness and reinforced it with ultra-light materials, such as carbon, aramid or titanium.

cOnSTRucTiOn Sandwich conStructionLocated between the upper and lower beams on the board’s sides is an ABS synthetic sidewall which has been integrated to directly transmit pressure from the binding onto the edge without loss of power. The board gives a very responsive feel, providing maximum edge grip and the smoothest ride possible. > all boards except Jibby

fuLLcap conStructionIn a Fullcap Construction, the upper weave and the top-sheet material are moved down as far as the steel edge. It’s perfect for kids and beginners as the indirect power transmission has some benefits, among them a playful riding behavior, liveliness and no more edge-catching slams! Fast progress guaranteed!> Jibby

fLat-arEa top conStructionThe complete upper beam is flattened in the Flat-Area next to the sidewalls which results in a more diffused power transmission on the edges. Benefits are smooth, forgiving riding characteristics, weight reduction and a unique look.> Selecta / Soul Surfer

SLiM-tip conStructionUnlike a conventional sandwich construction, the Slim-Tip Construction incorporates a solid and shock-absorbing urethane inlay in the nose and tail sections instead of ABS sidewall material. Benefits include a stylish, slimmer nose, reduced swing- and overall weights for better board con - trol – perfect for all riders, not just for high-speed rotations in the park!> Squad prime / Squad rocker / vice SQd / riot SQd camber / riot SQd rocker / Jibster SQd / cashew / dice / Spade / dash / Soul Surfer / coal race / coal Xt / yavana / impress SQd / flavor / Melody / Squad Jr.

Skin pin SyStEMVölkl‘s Skin Pin System is used in touring skiing for the fast and easy set up of skins. To hitch the skins, two loops are integrated into the nose of the board. Turned around by 90 degrees, the lock that is set up in the skins, can be hitched and anchored to the loop. This patented technology of the Skin Pin snap closure is only used by Völkl!> cashew Split

SMart torSion inLayHigh-tech tuning hidden below the topsheet! Thanks to the special shape and positioning of the Smart Torsion Inlays (made of a specific hardwood) these boards boast more torsional stiffness. Pressure and power are distributed equally along the whole board and transferred to the edges. Benefits include enhanced control and maximum edge pressure for high-speed runs!> coal race / coal Xt

avS (anti-vibrationS-SyStEM)The Anti-Vibrations-System noticeably absorbs all kinds of bumps and shocks. Special rubber/gel layers are directly integrated into the topsheet so the bindings can stay put without having to be raised. The AVS unfurls its maximum potential most noticeably when a board is on edge, pro vid-ing tremendous dampening and absorbing all vibrations.> coal race / coal Xt

uPPeR anD lOWeR layeRS fibErgLaSS wEavEThe fiberglass weave leaves its mark on the board’s flex and torsion properties. The choice of weave (direction of individual fibers in relation to one another) and its thick-ness is selected individually for each length of board. An-other decisive factor in the degree of flex and torsion is the distance between the upper and lower layer (degree and variation of thickness throughout the board). The thicker the board and the more layers it has, the stiffer the flex.

biaXiaL fibErgLaSS wEavE in uppEr and LowEr bEaMGlass fibers are woven at 90° angles lengthwise and trans - versely to another. This results in relatively low torsional stiffness and a board with good-natured temperament.> Jibby

triaXiaL fibErgLaSS wEavE in uppEr and LowEr bEaMThis special fiberglass weave has fibers that have been positioned at a 45° angle (+45°/-45°) in addition to run-ning nose to tail. Depending on the density of the woven fiber, torsion and flex are enhanced without influencing the wood core’s thickness. This reduces weight, which delivers responsiveness and better edge grip.> all boards except Jibby

v-fLEX fibErgLaSS wEavEThe V-Flex weave is a triaxial fiberglass weave with increased fiber density. The special V-form reinforces the area around the bindings, producing improved flex and torsion properties. It also provides optimal distribution of power to the edge of the board. This provides better stability when strain and forces are strong.> Squad prime / Squad rocker / vice SQd / riot SQd camber / riot SQd rocker / Jibster SQd / cashew / dice / Spade / Squad Jr. / impress SQd

vöLkL prEMiuM carbon wEavECarbon fibers in the lower beam make the board stronger and livelier. The carbon fibers’ tensile strength allows for very short response times. In addition, the high-class, specifically made Völkl Premium Carbon incorporates lengthwise fiberglass strips. This weave considerably enhances the board’s torsional stiffness, pop and liveli-ness. Depending on the required riding characteristics and the amount of carbon, Völkl has developed four different POP Carbon inlays.

pop1.0: Two short V-shaped Völkl Premium Carbon strips each embedded in nose and tail.> Jibster SQd / riot SQd camber / riot SQd rocker / impress SQd / dice

hardwood vEnEErThe environment benefits from this veneer inlay and so does your performance. The inlay strengthens the wood-core in the upper and lower layer on the full length of the board. This provides more pop and lively riding characte ris- tics, while at the same time reducing the amount of fiber-glass and therefore doing something good for our planet.> cashew / Soul Surfer

SiDeWallS racEwaLL SidEwaLLIn racing, the performance makes the difference. A normal sidewall slows down on turns and when riding hard on the edge. That’s why we developed a special Race Sidewall for the Coal that is made of the same sintered material as the base. Actually, it is kind of an extension of the base as the sidewall, too, can now be waxed according to the tempera - ture of the snow – in a race fractions of seconds count!> coal race / coal Xt

1. drop-back highback with Quick rELEaSE LEvEr Thanks to the lever you can open the binding with just one hand! Put pressure on the lever and the highback opens and folds down; getting in and out of your bindings takes only a matter of seconds.

3. SizE-adJuStabLE highback poSition The Fastec’s highback is length-adjustable to three po-si tions. This makes for perfect fine-tuning capabilities to adjust the binding to your bootsize.> fastec prime alu / fastec choice alu

4. ErgonoMic, ovErSizEd highback pad The highback pad is made of 20 % recycled EVA and acts as a cushion between binding and boot. The result: Im-proved riding comfort without painful pressure points!> fastec prime alu / fastec choice alu / fastec invert / fastec vision

5. cabLE rEdirEction Attached to the highback, the cable redirection guarantees maximum mobility for tweaking and boning. Moreover, it also speeds up folding down the highback.> fastec prime alu / fastec choice alu / fastec invert / fastec vision / fastec vision Jr. / fastec vision kids

6. highback forward LEan adJuStMEnt The highback angle is easily adjustable to match a range of uses and riding styles. More forward lean helps you keep control of your board on the groomers, especially on ice and hard-packed snow, whereas less forward lean gives you all the freedom of movement you need for tricks and also prevents edge-catching slams on landings. Brand-new: Quickly change the forward lean adjustment through the highback lever’s rotating wheel, even with gloves it is not a problem!> Tool-free, infinite adjustment in the lever: fastec prime alu / fastec choice alu> Forward lean adjustment in higback lever: fastec invert / fastec vision / fastec vision Jr. / Straptec initial
