Why I recommend these
Expert verdict
The Völkl Revolt 96 Skis are a dream for freestyle enthusiasts. With a playful pop and full tip/tail rocker, they make switch skiing a breeze. What sets them apart is their versatility; they're not just park-bound. Thanks to a medium stiffness multilayer wood core and continual edge wrap, they handle everything from bumps to groomers with ease. The 3D Radius Sidecut offers flexibility in turn shapes, making them adaptable to various terrains. While they're fantastic for park skiers, they might not be the best for deep powder days. Overall, they're a solid choice for those who want a reliable, fun ride across different conditions.

"BUILT TOGETHER!" The design concept of the Völkl Freeski Family goes into the fourth round! The complete Revolt Range was designed by Swiss illustrator Benjamin Güdel and the Revolt 96 replaces the Revolt 95. The development of the ski was a process over several years with different athletes and came to completion with the Norwegian Oysten Braten and the Völkl Freestyle Team around Tom Ritsch from Austria. The result is impressive in every respect. The tip & tail rocker ski with a new, modern sidecut is equipped with reinforced edges and modified flex zones meant to be ridden in the urban playground or in the park. Whether it's the stair railing behind the house, the rail in the park, or the kicker next to the slope, the Revolt 96 will give you enough pop and stability during take-off to raise your level up a notch.
Of course, the Revolt 96 also features the proven 3D Radius Sidecut and a full-length sidewall for top performance on hard, shaped surfaces. The ski is available in four lengths from 157 to a whopping 181 cm, so that even taller or heavier riders will find the right model for them.
