Völkl RTM 86

Not for nothing does RTM stand for Ride the Mountain. All design features of the RTM 86 have been meticulously coordinated, from the Extended Tip & Tail Rocker with camber under the WideRide XL binding with GripWalk to the Full 3D sidewall and UVO. The combination of 3D.Ridge and 3D.Glass provides noticeably more power transmission, higher torsional stiffness and improved edge grip and liveliness. A few facts about the ski Core: 3D.Ridge Core Binding system: iPT Wideride XL 12 FR GW Flo-Red Coating: P-Tex 4500 Waist: 132_86_114 Rocker: XTD Tip & Tail Rocker Driver level Beginners Professional Terrain Runway Deep snow Terrain Short turn Long swings LengthRadiusTailoring 16716132-86-114 mm 17217132-86-114 mm 17718.1132-86-114 mm 18219.3132-86-114 mm Technologies iPT Wideride XL 12 FR GW Flo-Red: Marker and Völkl developed the iPT Wideride system with a 30% larger contact surface compared to a standard binding. In addition, the binding is mounted much closer to the edges of the ski. This ensures a more direct and continuous release of energy onto the edges. As a result, wider skis are more agile and at the same time have better control. They react more directly to the rider's impulses and translate the edge pressure from above into a precise and powerful skiing style Z value: 4.0 - 12.0 UVO: For the first time, UVO offers freely rotating 360° damping for the ski: increased smoothness with greater precision and more control than ever before. The uneven terrain under the ski generates unavoidable vibrations, which are then transmitted to the ski's shovel and cause the ski to vibrate. Of course, this significantly disturbs the smooth running of the ski and more effort is required to keep the ski steady, especially on the edge. The revolutionary UVO technology works against this. It noticeably reduces the undesirable vibrations on the ski over the entire surface without negatively affecting agility. 3D.Glass: Völkl's latest development 3D.Glass once again enables an improvement in the handling characteristics and stability of a ski, especially in difficult snow conditions. Compared to a classic glass construction, the three-dimensional and multi-folded fabric layers in the binding area provide increased edge grip and a more lively springback of the ski in curves. 3D.ridge: The wood core is raised in the middle of the ski and extremely flattened towards the sides. This results in an enormous reduction in weight and gyrating mass, while at the same time maintaining the stability of the ski. The 3D.Ridge technology stands for the most extreme and effective construction available at the moment. It has since become the trademark of VÖLKL lightweight construction. A characteristic feature is the raised centre bar, which flattens out to the maximum in front of and behind the binding towards the edge. This reduces the flywheel mass around the pivot point to a minimum and significantly increases the agility of the ski. At the same time, the center bar allows for an exact design of the hard curve, resulting in a 3D.RIDGE particularly harmonious flex curve of the ski. Despite the weight savings, the 3D.Ridge design does not negatively affect the load and durability of the ski in any way. 3D.Ridge Core: A plywood combination of Full Sensor wood core and light plywood specially designed for 3D.Ridge construction. Powered by Titanium: Titanal in ski construction makes the ski lively and dynamic. Especially friends of hard, fast and aggressive skiing styles benefit from the reaction speed of this construction. Full 3D.sidewall Base P-Tex 4500: Sintered, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene coating with extremely high density. P-Tex 4504 is not only extremely wear-resistant, it also offers the best wax absorption and is extremely fast. At Völkl this base is used exclusively on our top models and racing skis. The material composition was refined with special additives. This results in thermal and electrical conductivity that consistently achieves the best gliding and speed characteristics
