The Mantra is the go anywhere/do anything ski for the adventerous expert skier. The Volkl Mantra ski continues for 2008/2009 with last year's shape which is 2mm wider all the way down the ski giving it a little more float without losing its versatility. A true quiver of one, the Mantra lets you ski the deep stuff with ease and return to the mountain and feel rock solid carving the groomers. A popular choice for all-mountain skiers wanting great versatility.
Description
Volkl introduced a replacement for the Explosiv last season, and it really took off. For powder skiers who also want to be able to ski the front side of the mountain when they have to, the Mantra hit the mark so squarely,
SKI magazine called it Ski of the Year.
POWDER did a full page article on it in their buyers guide, and we sold out of many sizes very early. Back with an updated graphic, this is the 'versatile powder' ski that they will all be chasing again next season.

According to
Skiing magazine, "The Mantra is the one-ski quiver of the Big-Mountain Expert category. Enough width to stay afloat in all but the deepest blower, and with a GS-race sidecut for groomers bliss. GRIPES: Some male testers wanted more high-speed stability. PROPS: Led the pack in maneuverability, and turn-execution scores. Goes where you want-no body english required. TESTER'S TAKE: "If you don't like the Mantras, it's probably because you haven't tried them."
