Why We Like The Volkl Rise Beyond 96 Ski
When we decide the crowded parking lots and lift lines aren’t worth the fuss, we click into the Rise Beyond 96 Skis and find our own powder runs. Designed for the pure backcountry skier, this touring ski is built to handle long arduous ascents thanks to the lightweight Paulownia and carbon construction. The 96mm waist is wide enough for meadow skipping in powdery conditions, yet nimble enough for technical couloir missions once the snowpack strengthens.
