What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying"The Volant 9000 is a proper piste ski. That edge-to-edge steel layer isn't just for looks - you can feel the torsional stiffness the moment you lay it on edge. The Power Woodcore keeps it stable and quiet at speed, and the World Cup base finish is legitimately fast. If you want a ski that rewards aggressive skiing and holds nothing back on groomed snow, this is a serious option."Advanced to Expert Piste SkiersThe Volant 9000 is built for skiers who ski hard on groomed terrain and demand precision, power, and edge grip from their equipment. It suits confident carvers and aggressive piste skiers who are comfortable pushing their limits at speed and want a ski that responds with control and authority. Groomed Piste TerrainDesigned specifically for piste performance, the Volant 9000 excels on groomed runs where edge-to-edge power and torsional rigidity can be fully exploited. It handles short and long turns with equal authority, rewarding skiers who commit to the edge and drive through the arc. Stainless-Steel Construction with Premium Piste PerformanceThe Volant 9000 is built around a double layer of stainless steel that delivers torsional rigidity, edge grip, and power transmission across the full length of the ski. Full Sidewall Sandwich construction supports precise steering and adds to the planted, confident feel underfoot. The Power Woodcore - ash and poplar - provides stability and vibration dampening at speed, while a black metal vapor coating adds durability and the World Cup base finish reduces friction for a faster glide.
