Volkl decided the Ledge Alpine Ski should let you ride switch, pull whatever tricks you want in the park, and hang with your all-mountain buddies once in a while, so it made some big changes for the ’09 season. Volkl gave the Ledge Ski a symmetrical shape and a soft butter zone. What the ballz is a soft butter zone? The b-zone places snappy poplar wood in the forebody of the ski for sweet jibbing and a dense wood around the binding for screw retention and durability. Printed vertical sidewalls look sweet, and a full armed edge (the edges are anchored to the Volkl logos in the middle of the ski) provides bomber durability for hitting rails.
i ski mainly at Big Sky Montana. there is alot of different terrain up there, and i am also looking for a good park ski. will this be a good choice? i trust the name volkl, and i know they make some good shit, but idk about there park abilities. i am 5'6" and pretty badass. wut size should i get?
I am a ski instructor in WI and I ride the park most of the time when I am not teaching. I weigh 150 and I am 5' 11" would the 162 be an okay size for me and is this an okay ski for me?
Personally I think there are better park skis out there...but if this is what you want go for it. A 162 seems like it would be a pretty good size. Maybe a tad small, but that isnt the end of the world. Btw, which mountain do you ski at...my home mountain is Tyrol Basin.
These are some nice skis. I just got them mounted with Rossignol SAS2 120 bindings, which works nicely. They can hold an edge pretty well, except on slow speeds which is understandable for all twin-tips. Overall, very nice ski, except they come with some adhesive stuff on the bottom, so I would recommend waxing before skiing on them for the first time.
I am looking for an all mountain twin tip. I ski alot of moguls,trees,and some grommers. I live on the East Coast and ski almost exclusively in Vermont.I am an advanced to expert skier. Would you recomend this ski or something else.
yes i would recomend these skis the only problem with these skis is that the top kind of shreds off when u cross ur tips but this ski is an exillent all mountain ski since i ski mainly at whistler blackcomb i need a good all mountain ski and this ski gets the job done well
I am really confused about the entire line of the volkl wall,ledge, and the old karma? they seem very similar, and then they also have the bridge. I have the karmas and they are finished after last season. The karmas are my favorite ski ever! After skiing about 150 days on them the past 3 years I want to upgrade to another volkl but I am confused on what to buy? I am advanced skier that skis just about everything, including many moguls. I am considering buying the bridge, but the waist seems to large, also I was considering the line prophet 90's, but I am confused with the wall and ledge? Please help??
If i were you i would choose the Volkl Wall because of the narrower waist which is a lot nicer to have in the moguls and it is still a great all mountain ski.
The difference between the Wall and the Ledge is that the Ledge is cheaper and a more beginner ski. Overall they are a similar ski.
I am an advanced- Low expert skiier who skiis about 75% Of piste/ 15% Park 'n' Pipe. I am from NZ so dont get Pow days often but when We do i skii Pow All day. I also love flying down the groomers to get the legs warmed up early in the morning.
I know that this is rated a Iternmediate ski... But would this work for an Advanced skiier?
At 84 under foot this will serve well as an all-mountain ski; offering just enough float for those NZ pow days. This has been dubbed an Intermediate ski due to its slightly softer flex and torsion box construction. This won't have the power that you will find in a top of the line Expert rig, but will still hold an edge well/ transition between turns with ease.
Just to check your math, 75 off piste & 15 gettin' you jib on leaves 10% for throwing back beers on the Tram deck...Steezy top-sheet will keep you looking like a PRO throughout.
An odd question...I have skied twice - period. To say that I already have an unhealthy obsession with skiing already is an understatement. I am looking to buy my first pair of skis, but am looking for something that I won't outgrow skillwise for an extended period of time. If I am interested in skiing switch as soon as possible, would this ski be a reasonable purchase or do I not bother with twintips? (I realize that the Volkl website classifies this as an intermediate ski, but I've already been put on higher difficulty blue runs - a.k.a. black runs in Minnesota - without crashing).
Well dude, if your looking to ski switch and park, i would get twin-tips, twin tips are actually cheaper than alot of regular carve skis too, i had the mistake of starting with carve skis when i wanted to ride park, you can still ride switch, but not much else. Also get a pair of twin-tips that can rip the whole mountain.
