Volkl Women's Mantra 84 Ski 2026
The completely renewed Mantra 84 W is for sporty female skiers, who prefer groomed slopes but can’t deny their freeride affinity. It's 3D radius sidecut makes it easy and playful to turn on as well off piste. Longer radii at the tail and the tip allow excellent maneuverability at high speeds and for wide turns. The characteristics of the new Mantra 84 W also benefit from the innovative Völkl Tailored Carbon Tips: Individual carbon fibers are embroidered onto a carrier material and precisely positioned along stress lines. With the millimeter-exact alignment and fiber thickness, the skiing characteristics of the Mantra 84 W have been tuned perfectly for superior stability especially considering its low weight. That said, it can still be pushed really hard without requiring much force. Improved on-piste properties and the option of straying away from the groomed runs now and again make the ski even more appealing.

The side wall is laminated to extremely stable layers of wood on the sides of the sandwich core. In combination with a more flexible, lighter wood built into the center of the sandwich core construction provides numerous advantages: The hardwood part immediately adjacent to the sidewall effects a higher power transmission, improves the edge grip, and supports the edge against external forces. The low weight of the softwood part in the middle of the ski brings more agility and maneuverability and reduces overall ski weight. The combination of both wood types running through the entire ski length contributes to an optimal distribution of the ski stiffness, increasing the steering precision. It is the first and only sidewall/core technology intended for aggressive on-piste and racing use and capable of delivering victory and defeat, even if it is measured in hundredths of seconds.
In this construction, carbon fibers are no longer incorporated as a uniform fleece. They are integrated through a stitching process in such a way that their orientation and strength meet the functional requirements of each part of the ski. As the tip and the tail are the most influential sections on a ski, the carbon fibres are concentrated exactly in these areas. As a result, the power transmission is extremely precise, and liveliness and energy are accessible with minimal effort.
Our new key technology is called Tailored Titanal Frame. In contrast to the previous design, the width of the titanal frame is now adapted exactly to each individual ski length. This results in Tailored Titanal Frames, which are positioned above the sidewall along the tip and tail area of the ski to provide the desired damping and torsional stiffness. The size of the frames is tailored to the skier's height, skiing ability, and power. This means that longer ski models have a higher titanal content for more stiffness, more direct power transmission, and stronger dampening. The shorter the length, the lower the titanal content, which makes the ski more agile, so that smaller, lighter, and less powerful skiers can use the full potential performance of the ski. In addition to the Tailored Titanal Frames, a second, thinner titanal layer is located in the binding area, which gives the ski the necessary strength, but also agility. The result: the Tailored Titanal Frame technology provides an incomparable combination of agility and high-speed control.
