The Katana 108 is a freeride ski for skiers looking for performance in fresh snow as well as on piste from Völkl.
Designed with a Multilayer Woodcore to provide strength, this ski also has a Titanal Frame structure in strategic areas to provide power and stability as well as excellent vibration absorption. This enables you to ride down the untouched slopes at speed and with confidence.
The Katana 108 features the innovative 3D.Radius Sidecut which allows you to execute medium and large turns with exceptional agility and reactivity. The Tip & Tail Rocker combined with the 108 mm waist gives it perfect lift and flotation in powder. Finally, on piste it remains lively and easy to handle while beautiful glide.

Core:
- MultiLayer Woodcore: The edge is laminated to extremely stable layers of wood on the sides of the ski's multi-layer core. This, combined with more flexible and lighter wood inserted in the centre of the core's multi-ply construction, offers a number of advantages: The hardwood section immediately adjacent to the edge provides high power transmission, improves edge grip and supports the sides against external impacts. The reduced weight of the softwood section in the centre of the ski ensures greater agility and better handling and reduces the overall weight of the ski. The combination of the two types of wood along the entire length of the ski contributes to an optimal distribution of the ski's rigidity, while increasing precision in turns. It's the first and only core/edge construction technology designed for intensive use on the pistes, as well as in competition capable of making the difference between victory and defeat, measured in hundredths of a second.
Rocker:
- Tip & Tail Rocker: Rocker only in the tip and tail, ski cambered in the binding.
Base:
- P-Tex 2100: Made of sintered polyethylene for strength and ideal glide.
Technologies:
- 3D Radius Sidecut: LONG RADIUS ON THE TIP AND TAIL: Use of the long radius in tip and tail for large turns at high speed Easy handling and manoeuvrability, resistant tip at high speeds.
- Titanal Frame: More cushioning and stability throughout the length of the ski with powerful edges, a reinforced mounting platform as well as vibration absorption throughout the length of the lightweight, durable carbon tips.
- Carbon Tips: The top layer of the tip guarantees high reliability/stability with the lowest possible weight.
- Full Sidewall: Thanks to Full Sidewall , which runs the entire length of the ski, power transmission is strong and direct.
