The Revolt 114 returns with refined graphics while maintaining the distinctive construction that has made it a favorite among freeride competitors. This wide-bodied ski continues to occupy a unique position in the Revolt series, bridging the gap between Völkl’s Mantra collection and the other, more freestyle-oriented Revolt models. The result sits somewhere in the middle of both, leaning more toward big-mountain directional skiers who want a stable landing gear in the tail and a buoyant shovel in the tip.
At the heart of the Revolt 114’s appeal lies its strategic material distribution. Rather than loading the entire ski with heavy damping layers, Völkl employs a multilayer wood core with fiberglass reinforcements that concentrate strength where power transfer matters most. This approach delivers impressive stability and edge hold at high speeds while enabling you to manipulate the ski for freestyle tricks off cliffs and wind lips.
The ski’s shape reflects careful consideration of conflicting performance demands. The wide, early-rising tip provides float in powder, while the flatter tail and extended effective edge create stability at speed—a trait wider skis often sacrifice for maneuverability. Völkl’s variable radius sidecut—featuring longer radii at the extremities and a tighter radius underfoot—enables smooth turn initiation when skiing through chopped-up powder runs where this ski just blasts through whatever is in its way.
The Revolt 114 succeeds as a specialized daily driver for advanced skiers who demand both powder performance and freestyle capability, delivering the stability needed for big landings and crud busting for the chargiest freeriders among us.
