The Mantra V.Werks is a ski without a speed limit that’s as happy crushing mid-winter pow as it is hopping down steep spring peak descents. It lies on the stiffer side of the spectrum thanks to traditional camber underfoot, a titanium backbone and a carbon wrapping, but tip and tail rocker help this ski’s playfulness and keep it nimble. “Lightweight and easy to maneuver on the uphill,” described FREESKIER’s Donny O’Neill. “Snappy and quick on the descent through the trees, planed very well in the deep powder pockets.” Adam Moszynski added that it was “light and efficient on the uphill. It was really nimble on the descent, making quick turns easily.” Fans of the resort-centric Mantra, step right up and see what this version can do out-of-bounds.
