09 Volkl Wall Mogul Ski

jack97 · Jun 11, 2008, 2:46 PM

Just an FYI, I noticed Al ski barn is listing the 09 Volkl Wall mogul ski. Here's the pic (middle) and the dimension (89 63 78 ). It has the shape as the 07 rebellion.

Wow. Some of the ugliest top sheets yet.

Gotta wonder how much confusion will be generated by having two skis named "Wall" (i.e. Wall versus Wall Mogul). Doesn't make much sense to me. Though it DOES make sense to include the mogul ski in with the park skis. I am truly amazed that park/pipe and mogul skiing have not seen more inter-mixing.

Here's some park and mogul skis with the same base name;

Dynastar twister,
Salomon 1080
Head Mad Trix

To make things more confusing, Volkl had a different ski call a rebellion several years ago, more of an all mtn shape. Forgot when it happened but they made a narrower shape and used the same name. This is no different than rossi using B1 and Bandits names on their earlier all mtn ski and presently using that name for their present generation mid fats

I don't mind the graphics on the wall moguls, it is very park-esque though. A lot of manufacturers seem to like to give their mogul offering the same base name as another ski in their lineup, it sure does make it confusing though...

I don't mind the graphics either but then again I don't mind the below;

I like the twister graphics better.

I always thought the Twisters were sick looking skis.

I get mix reactions up on the lifts, some hate it while others love it.

Same thing with these, some of the techies ask about the black tongue.

Me, it's a don't care.

Has anyone here demo'd the Volkl Wall Mogul Ski yet?

I used to be fairly faithful to Volkl and love the POP that you get out of their skis, but am not sure how that translates into a mogul ski.
