Volkl RACETIGER SL Ski Set + RMOT-T 12 RED Bindings

The Volkl RACETIGER SL is a slalom ski designed for expert skiers seeking precision, responsiveness, and maximum grip on hard snow. Designed for ultra-fast edge changes and tight turns, it’s aimed at a technically demanding audience that’s comfortable on groomed runs and challenging courses. This package pairs the skis with the RMOT-T 12 RED bindings, creating a cohesive setup designed for on-piste performance. The promise is clear: a lively, direct, and uncompromising ride.

Program and Performance: A slalom ski focused on pure performance

The Volkl RACETIGER SL Ski Pack + RMOT-T 12 RED Bindings is part of a competitive and technical alpine skiing program. Its preferred terrain is hard, groomed slopes, where precision of movement and speed of execution make all the difference. With a flex rating of 10 out of 10, this ski leaves no room for error: it demands total commitment with every turn and delivers immediate responsiveness in return. Short, sharp turns are this model’s natural forte, designed for linking gates or carving tight turns on steep slopes.

Dimensions and radius: geometry designed for short turns

With dimensions of 126/67/102 mm (tip/waist/tail), the RACETIGER SL features a waist width of 67 mm—a characteristic of a narrow ski designed for grip on groomed slopes. This geometry promotes crisp edge engagement and direct contact with groomed snow, without losing energy during compression. The turning radius varies depending on the length chosen: 12.6 m for the 165 cm model and 13.4 m for the 170 cm model—values that correspond to tight turns, typical of slalom skiing. These short turning radii allow you to initiate and finish each turn with precision, keeping the ski under control even at high turn frequencies.

Construction: Materials with High Power Transmission

The construction of the Volkl RACETIGER SL is based on a combination of materials selected for their direct contribution to on-piste performance. Here are its key structural elements:

• Multilayer wood core (poplar and beech): combines lightness and responsiveness for a lively ski that responds instantly to input.
• Double layer of Titanal (Full Titanal): enhances stability and torsional stiffness, essential for high speeds on hard snow.
• Tailored Carbon Tips technology: optimizes turn initiation and accelerates energy build-up at the tip for faster transitions.
• 3D.GLASS construction: improves power transfer and torsional stiffness throughout the entire ski.
• Full Sidewall ABS: Provides solid lateral protection and direct power transfer from the skier’s pressure to the edge.

RMOT-T 12 RED Binding: Integration and safety for enhanced responsiveness

The RMOT-T 12 RED binding is a jointly developed, tool-free, integrated system featuring a shock absorber and an advanced release mechanism. It is compatible with GripWalk boots, expanding your boot options. The integrated shock absorber filters vibrations transmitted to the ski without compromising the precision of your foot placement—a useful balance for maintaining control on uneven terrain or very hard slopes.

The Volkl RACETIGER SL Ski Pack + RMOT-T 12 RED Bindings is designed for expert skiers who ski on groomed runs, possess a high level of technical skill, and seek precise, engaging sensations. Its narrow geometry, short radii, and reinforced construction make it a well-rounded choice for those looking to improve their slalom skills or simply get the most out of a groomed run.
