The Revolt 121 isn’t the only powder ski that Völkl makes, but it is the most versatile. Taking notes from freestyle park riding, it’s a front runner of the more “playful” side of the Völkl lineup.
You can take the play and creativity you would get from a slimmer waist and apply it to a big mountain environment, provided the snow is reasonably soft.
Völkl skis have myriad skis for myriad mountains. The Revolt 121 is a great powder ski. But it’s also a pretty stellar everyday option for those who don’t mind some limitations when it comes to flying through debris fields.
It’s a ski built for natural terrain but can still hold its own on hardpack and groomers. In terms of playful, poppy, floaty fun- you won’t find anything better from Völkl, or most of the competition.
