Volkl Pearl

The Pearl was tested this year in the 169 size, making its stability level top notch for our female testers. “This ski is pretty much the jam. It finds the sweet spot on jumps and when carving without even trying,” said one tester. Part of the reason for the stability is the tough-box construction Volkl employs in its park and pipe models. The layered wood core is wrapped in a combination of composite and fiberglass to create resilience and snap. Just what one needs when popping off jumps and onto rails.

Scores
Playfulness: 4.5
Stability: 4.5
Swing Weight: 4.5
Carving: 5
OVERALL: 19.5
