When your main focus is on the ascent but you’re still looking for a ski with great downhill performance, the Völkl Rise Up 82 is the perfect choice. For the first time, Völkl has incorporated the 3D radius sidecut derived from freeride and all-mountain skis like the Kanjo and the Deacon into its touring skis.

This design combines three different radii, which are fluidly interconnected over the entire length of the ski. This means the curve behaviour is adapted to the dominant waist radius depending on the edge angle. The result is smooth rides at high speeds and a refusal to be unsettled, even in demanding off-piste conditions.

A multi-layer wood core makes the ski incredibly light while still providing reliable downhill performance. A full sidewall gives the ski stability and resilience. The Völkl Rise Up 82 naturally also features the Smart Skin Clip system, which is compatible with both Tech Fibre and Smart Glue skins.

Features:
• 3D Radius Sidecut
• Smart Skinclip
• Full Sidewall
• Base: P-Tex 2100
• Base structure: Brushed structure
• Hybrid Multilayer Woodcore

Technology

SMART SKINCLIP
The newly developed Smart Skinclip system allows the ski tourer to decide for himself, depending on the situation, in which direction he should pull the skin on and off. A standard snap hook at the tail end of the ski allows the skin to be attached and detached from behind. The skin can, however, also be pulled on and off quickly and easily from the front. This new flexibility is made possible by an elastic snap hook, which is also easy to grip with gloves. A subtle depression in the ski tip gives the hook lateral guidance and prevents it from unintentionally releasing the skin while walking.

TOURLITE WOODCORE
A particularly light and complex wood core specially developed for touring skis. In the area around the steel edges, a poplar wood hand-picked by weight provides the necessary stability, while in the center of the ski, the soft and light Paulownia wood ensures the ski's flexibility. In the binding area beech wood provides the strength, which is needed to hold the screws of the binding. In the center of the core, a CNC-milled Isocore area contributes to optimal liveliness and dynamic development.
Only the lightest batch of each wood delivery makes it into these cores.
