Description: VOLKL SUMO POWDER SKIS WITH MARKER BINDINGS 175CM The Sumo's are the fattest and widest powder skis Volkl has ever made. Dimensions are 150 tips -125 waist -142 tails. They were limited production and the most expensive skis Volkl had made at the time and feature a leather top sheet. Ski tops, edges, and bottoms are pristine and are ready to ski. Bindings set up for a 305mm ski boot. The Volkl Sumo received numerous ski publications awards for the best powder ski. Chris Davenport ski tester "An awesome choice for anyone who loves powder and gets it frequently." The Sumo is Volkl's answer to the deepest of powder days. Pure powder skis, they transition from turn to turn effortlessly and skim the surface—until you punch it in the belly and set it on edge. The Sumos love powder days, the backcountry, and heli-skiing. Volkl Sumos are for the person that wants a smooth flexing ski that rewards you with a smooth ride to further enjoy the terrain. Wood-cored, and a huge ski to keep the advanced to expert skier afloat in the most glorious conditions. Nothing is better than the Sumo for stomping landings and staying afloat in the deep stuff. Here is Volkl's Sumo ski construction information. Tough Box Technology — Volkl has created a new core construction process for their new freeski and telemark models, the Tough Box. In this construction method, each wooden core is given extra strength by a 4x4 FiberWrap covering. In order to obtain maximum load in all directions, several layers of thin and highly durable fiberglass bands are wrapped around the core in a cross pattern. This construction allows the binding screws to be anchored even more securely into the skis and guarantee a firm hold even under extreme conditions. Increased Fiberglass Wrap in Mid-Body — Extra fiberglass wraps in the mid-body of the ski provide resistance to binding pullout.Dual Layer Sensorwood Core — Volkl has constructed a new honeycomb wooden core especially for the new freeski models. The secret of its special freeski qualities is found in the double layer construction: there is a thinner and very much lighter wooden core in the bottom of the ski. There’s a solid wooden core on top of this that is protected by the 4x4 FiberWraps cover. This construction not only allows a very precise sensation when riding, it’s also useful for firmly anchoring the Free bindings into the body of the ski. The bindings are effectively prevented from being ripped out by the pressure of extreme freeski maneuvers. The top sheet is also prevented from becoming detached from the core in the body of the ski.ArmedEDGE — Give yourself an edge! All new freeride and freestyle skis from Volkl have an extra strong edge, which makes the ski even more robust. ArmedEDGE—a toughened steel edge and larger than the traditional edge anchor, offering more strength and resistance to breaking and pull-out. Power Construction — Tried and tested sandwich construction is experiencing a renaissance in the freeski models of tomorrow. Power Construction describes the combination of two new Volkl technologies: Tough Box and Armed Edge—a combo for the most demanding conditions. I have a 100% e-Bay rating and you will not be disappointed.
