Test / Review Völkl Racetiger SC UVO

Mini Volkl - SkiReviewer

The Völkl Racetiger SC UVO is Völkl’s interpretation for a non compromise Slalom ski. Very similar in construction to its brother the Völkl Racetiger RC UVO, it differs slightly on its behavior but not performance, since both models are great skis.

With a 122 mm shovel, turns come easy all the time at any speed. Given enough inclination, the Völkl Racetiger SC UVO quickly bites the snow allowing a very comfortable turn entry. The rest of the arc comes with very little effort. Stability is granted and the 72 mm width won’t be noticed by the majority of skiers. Rounding turns and coming straight for the next one is a piece of cake with this ski. Part of that is coming from the 105 mm tail and how the engineers at Völkl have drawn the shape. However, don’t think this is a very round tool to use. You can put your turns to an end anytime you desire, but the point is it won’t require a noticeable effort as it may happen with those old supercarvers we’ve all used sometime.
