Product description
The faster the turn, the bigger the adrenaline rush
The Racetiger SL Master knows no compromises and is the most specialised ski in the Völkl collection (with the exception of the racing skis). Equipped with Völkl’s current technologies for the slopes, it leaves nothing to be desired and offers magnificent possibilities for high-performance on-piste skiing. Two main factors in this regard are the tailored carbon tips and the full ash core, which was previously reserved for the Völkl WC line. To precisely control the torsion in the shovel area, Völkl established a complex process to embroider carbon fibres onto a fleece – the tailored carbon tip. The result is direct and precise tip response on a previously unachieved level, as well as a whole diffrent level of energy build-up the moment you begin to turn. Due to the full ash core, the energy generated is distributed over the entire length of the ski and released at the end of the turn. A short tip rocker, full Titanal, full sidewall, 3D.Glass construction and P-Tex 4505 race base complete this high performance model. With only 67 mm under the boot, a 12.6 m radius and the pre-mounted 10 mm World Cup plate, the impressively agile Racetiger SL Master is built for the tightest, shortest and most precise turns you can imagine – done at high speeds.

The high-quality core made of solid ash, which extends over the entire length of the ski, is a technical highlight that has great impact on the skiing characteristics. The particularly elastic hardwood is being used in our racing skis for World Cup athletes and even the Master models and acts as an energy accumulator: while the ski flexes when initiating the turn, the fibers stretch and absorb the tension energy. At the exit of the turn, this accumulated energy is released, giving the ski a lively feel. Due to the specific suppleness of ash wood, the ski also adapts optimally to the surface. This results in the greatest possible stability and reliability, which makes the ski particularly smooth.
In this innovative manufacturing process the new Tailored Carbon Tips are produced by embroidering the individual carbon fibers onto a carrier material. The stiffness, torsion and thus the skiing characteristics can be specifically adjusted via the fiber thickness and millimeter-precise alignment. In this way, the fibers guide the dynamics to the areas of the ski where they are needed. The visibly integrated Tailored Carbon Tips are light, allow an agile shovel reaction with less effort and quickly build up energy. The Tailored Carbon Tips thus reach a new level of precision, direct tip response and active skiing pleasure.
The titanium setup makes the ski agile and dynamic. Especially friends of a hard, fast and aggressive riding style benefit from the quick response of this construction.
Direct and strong powertransmission with full length sidewalls.
Compared to classic glass constructions the three-dimensional and multiple-folded glass layers in the tip and in the tail area result in an increased edge grip and a more vivid rebound behavior in turns.
1 3D.GLASS IS INTEGRATED IN THE TIP AND TAIL OF THE SKI
- flat glass under the binding making the center softer
- variable turning at any speed
2 GLASS ABOVE THE SIDEWALL
- providing additional support for superior edge grip on icy slopes
3 VERTICAL GLASS IN TIP & TAIL AREA
- more pop for faster edge to edge changes
A sintered, ultra-high molecular polyethylene base with an extremely high density. Besides a great wear resistance and perfect wax absorption the P-Tex 4504 is extremely fast and exclusively used on the top of the Völkl line and race models. The material has been upgraded with special additives to make it thermal and electro-conductive and proves its qualities with premium glide and maximum speed in races.
ZEBRA base structure on system / premounted skis with narrower widths Very pronounced & deep structure to offer the best possible precision & steering characteristics for an on-piste ski. -Agile, precise & reliable turn initiation -Smooth drifting -Agile, precise & reliable turn initiation
Only bends upwards in the shovel area, while the middle and tail of the ski feature a camber shape. The Völkl rocker construction is directly integrated into the production cycle, so the rocker shape doesn’t need to be bent afterwards, which makes the matching between the rocker and the other components much more harmonized and precise:
