Description & Features
Völkl's beer league GS skis with 3D.GLASS construction, a sandwich layup with two layers of fiberglass, one wraps around the base and extends over the sidewalls, and the other sits just below the metal layer on top. This innovative construction provides more power while allowing a smooth, progressive flex down the entire length of the ski, resulting in smoother turns and more natural transitions from long to short turns. UVO.3D dampening technology adds to the incredibly smooth ride and overall performance.
rMotion2 GW Race Binding - The included rMotion2 binding was developed in coordination with MARKER, especially for the Racetiger Speedwall UVO. A complete system with a significantly lighter race plate, ensuring optimal flex and grip. The 20% wider construction allows for a significantly improved transfer of power and control. The toe piece also ensures greater stability, while the heel mechanism provides better mounting convenience.

Technical Info
3D.GLASS Construction
3D.GLASS is Völkl’s latest development to furthermore improve overall ski performance and stability even in harsh snow conditions. Compared to classic glass construction, the three-dimensional and multiple-folded glass layers in the tip, tail, and binding area result in increased edge grip and more lively rebound in turns.
- The ski becomes noticeably more agile and lively with improved rebound
- Significantly enhanced edge grip, especially on hard and icy slopes
POWERED BY TITANIUM
Constructed of extra thin and strong aluminum alloy providing perfect dampening characteristics.
ULTIMATE VIBRATION OBJECT 3D (UVO.3D)
UVO.3D is the first freely rotating, vibration damper to apply cutting-edge vibration dampening technology to minimizing disruptive ski vibration.
The terrain or surface below the ski inevitably generates vibrations, which in turn set the shovel in particular into motion in all directions. This significantly disrupts the smoothness of the ski-ride, and makes it harder to hold an edge.
The revolutionary UVO technology counteracts this, with proven dampening or reduction of vibrations in the horizontal and vertical directions as well as along the length of the ski. The ride becomes smoother and the edge grip improves.
SPEEDWALL MULTI-LAYER WOOD CORE
Ski sidewall/core technology intended for aggressive on-piste and racing capable of delivering the victory, even if it is measured in hundredths of seconds.
The sidewall is laminated to extremely stable layers of hardwood with more flexible, lighter wood built into the center of the sandwich core. The hardwood imparts higher power transmission, improves the edge grip, and supports the edge against external forces. While the low weight of the softwood center brings more agility, maneuverability, and reduces overall ski weight. The combination of both wood types running through the entire ski length contributes to an optimal distribution of the ski stiffness precise steering.
TIP ROCKER
An early-rise tip design for racing. The combination of an early rise tip and a classic camber profile in the rest of the ski provides easy, smooth turn entry regardless of conditions. The ski is forgiving and easy to handle.
