How do you improve a legend? You retain the features that made the ski famous and add the latest innovations, which allow progress where a year ago you couldn't see any room for improvement. The new Mantra M6 again comes with a multilayer wood core and tip and tail rocker. But in the coming season, the newly designed ski body will, for the first time, be adapted to a 3D radius sidecut concept with a tailored Titanal frame. By adapting the Titanal components to the various ski lengths and thus to the skier's proportions, not only can the tip and tail ends be weight-optimised, but the torsional stiffness can also be influenced, thereby improving the ride qualities. This retains the familiar stability of a Titanal ski while also making the Mantra M6 noticeably lighter and more agile to control. The new handling characteristics of the Mantra M6 are also enhanced by the tailored carbon tip. The dedicated positioning of the carbon fibres results in a precise tip response and vastly improves the ski's torsional stiffness.

In summary, the Mantra M6 is even more versatile than its predecessor and once again offers maximum fun!

Bryant Leech tested this product
I have skied every era of Mantras dating back to 2005 so I am well-versed in what this ski is supposed to do. It's supposed to be a ski with no speed limit, endless stability, and demanding good form. While I don't think since the inception of this ski that has drastically changed (well, maybe those couple of years, which,... Read more
Ideal for
  • With good form this is an easy ski to master. Not as punishing as I was expecting.
  • Very cool use of metal that allows for great edge engagement and finish
  • This thing absolutely rails on groomers
Not ideal for
  • Not super versatile with a low amount of rocker for compared to most modern skis
  • Interesting edge engagement at different speeds, I sometimes found myself between radiuses
  • Punishing if not skied with good form

Henry Kvietok tested this product
The Volkl Mantra series is an icon in the world of skis. Often called the "Porsche" of the ski world, this one lives up to the brand's claims quite well. It feels consistently planted and smooth in various terrains and even at the fastest speeds. With a titanal frame, carbon stringers, and a wood core, this is a heavier and stiffer... Read more
Ideal for
  • Advanced to expert skiers will get the most out of these skis
  • A balance of piste to off piste skiing
  • Skiing fast, carving hard, and blasting through crud
Not ideal for
  • Heavier ski overall (which can be a pro or con depending on style/preferences)
  • Not the quickest edge to edge and not the best float, more a middle ground ski
  • Not ideal for beginner to intermediate skiers

Jonny is a great help
5 /5
I came to Jonny without knowing too much about what kind of profile and gear I needed to best fit my riding style and progression. After only a few questions Jonny was already locking in the perfect setup for me. I appreciate Jonny’s attentiveness and knowledgeability in helping me find the perfect balance.

Came back 2 times because I wanted to soak up all the knowledge he was giving. I know I was pissing him off w/ all my questions and he kept it cool and walked me thru everything I needed. He got me to purchase a brand new board by trusting his advice and I’m stoked to strap in and shred w/ it. THANK YOU PRESTON.. now it’s time to retire the old Burton 64 floater that I purchased for 85$

Going on a snowboard trip with my wife next month and this is her first snow trip since she was younger. I really wanted her to feel comfortable in her own gear but make sure she got something that fits her level and dims. Ryan was super friendly and helpful throughout the entire process. Will definitely be coming back next season for a new setup for myself. Thanks Ryan!
