The Volkl Mantra is a hard-charging racer trapped in the body of an all-mountain ski…and when we say ‘all-mountain’ we mean ‘all-mountain expert’. With a full wood core, vertical sidewalls, and double titanal reinforcement, the Mantra begs to be unleashed on untouched swathes of corduroy with the aggression of an imposingly-nicknamed Austrian. Meanwhile, its 133mm tip and mid-fat waist yearn to float through fields of back-bowl powder and chop through glades like a rabid lumberjack. So go ahead, spin the wheel of snow conditions and bring your worst. The Mantra rises above them all.
Volkl Mantra Skis 2010: The Mantra is the pinnacle product for the skier who wants to ski the super-deep stuff, yet still have a solid, race-ski like feel on the front of the mountain. Still unparalleled in the market, it’s become the go-to ski for good skiers who want a true powder ski they can ski on no matter what the conditions.

Mantra is the True one-ski quiver | |
| Rating: |  |
I have terrorized squaw valley in steep gnar for two seasons on these skis. They can handle anything...ice, heavy wet sierra cement, loose frozen crud, and they are champs in the pow...if it's white they'll bite. I can honestly say that this ski made me a better skier. I am buying a pair of 185cm Kuro's for storm days and a trip to alaska in april, but the mantra will remain as my everyday ski. BTW I am 35, 5'7", 150lbs., ski 50+dpy, and ski the mantra at the 177cm length. Don't be afraid to size up on this ski...Your confidence in all conditions will increase the more you ride on them...so don't go to short! Hope this helped. | |

Don't buy Mantra's or any other Volkl product | |
| Rating: |  |
I bought a pair of Mantra's and used them less than 50 days. The base started bubbling and, eventually, peeling at the logo on the tips. The edges are coming apart from the sidewall about 8" long under the binding. They were sent back to Volkl and returned without repair. The reason, I'm told, is, get this, "moisture". Nothing else. No warranty, $800, 50 days and I'm screwed, no further explanation. I have to buy new skis but they WILL NOT be Volkl's. Thought you should consider this before buying any Volkl products...I have pics if you want to see them... | |
