The Racetiger GS R WC FIS is the perfect ski for the ambitious U18 athlete working towards taking part in the European Cup. It has technologies that are also used in the World Cup. The Tailored Carbon Tip offers a very precise, direct and reliable shovel response, which helps the athlete to take a shorter and narrower radius to the gate. Carbon fibers are embroidered onto a carrier material for precise torsion control. The three-layer full titanal, the World Cup ash woodcore and the phenol sidewalls give the ski the stability and dynamism it needs to push every athlete to achieve their full potential.
It is delivered with the Race GS factory tuning and a pre-mounted Marker Interface WC-Plate 10mm. Völkl recommends using the Marker Comp 20 or 16 binding to go with this model.

TECHNOLOGY
WORLDCUP ASH WOODCORE:
The high-quality core made of solid ash, which extends over the entire length of the ski, is a technical highlight that has great impact on the skiing characteristics. The particularly elastic hardwood has so far only been used in racing skis for World Cup athletes and acts as an energy accumulator: while the ski flexes when initiating the turn, the fibers stretch and absorb the tension energy. At the exit of the turn, this accumulated energy is released, giving the ski a lively feel. Due to the specific suppleness of ash wood, the ski also adapts optimally to the surface. This results in the greatest possible stability and reliability, which makes the ski particularly smooth.
BASE P-TEX 2510:
A sintered high-density and high molecular polyethylene base with great gliding characteristics and high durability
FULL SIDEWALL PHENOL:
The special surface structure in combination with the material composition reduces icing because it allows the snow to simply slide off. This leads to a drastic reduction in weight during use up to 20 - 30%. Thanks to the lighter skis, long and steep assents can be better managed.
FULL TITANAL:
The titanium setup makes the ski agile and dynamic. Especially friends of a hard, fast and aggressive riding style benefit from the quick response of this construction.
MARKER WORLDCUP PLATE:
High-speed racing like the pros. Thanks to Piston Control, an integrated hydraulic oil piston, even the smallest bit of energy is converted into speed. Of course the interface is compatible with the Race X-cell bindings.
TAILORED CARBON TIPS:
In this innovative manufacturing process the new Tailored Carbon Tips are produced by embroidering the individual carbon fibers onto a carrier material. This allows them to be positioned exactly along the stress lines, opening up completely new possibilities, for performance at the front of the ski, which has a decisive influence on the handling of the ski. The stiffness, torsion and thus the skiing characteristics can be specifically adjusted via the fiber thickness and millimeter-precise alignment. In this way, the fibers guide the dynamics to the areas of the ski where they are needed. The visibly integrated Tailored Carbon Tips are light, allow an agile shovel reaction with less effort and quickly build up energy. The Tailored Carbon Tips thus reach a new level of precision, direct tip response and active skiing pleasure.
RACE FINISH:
TIP ROCKER:
Character: Only bends upwards in the shovel area, while the middle and tail of the ski feature a camber shape.
