Volkl Deacon 80 172 cm Men’s All-mountain 2023 Ski. Built with 3DRidge and a 3DGlass construction this ski features Völkl’s 3D radius sidecut that allows a variety of different turn shapes, and the extended radii in the tips and tails also gives the ski a more forgiving, less catchy feel, which comes in handy when you’re not on a perfect groomer. It’s not too demanding, which a lot of skiers will appreciate and appeal to, but it also has high-performance capabilities that will still appeal to a lot of expert skiers and former racers as well. Intermediate to advanced ski.
