2027 Volkl Revolt 114 Skis

Steep, technical, deep terrain is the whole reason the Volkl Revolt 114 exists. It wears the Revolt name but stands apart from the twin-tip freestyle skis in the line, a directional big-mountain ski with a tapered, rockered shape built to charge through powder, chop, and committing lines. A multilayer wood core and full sidewalls give it the backbone to hold a line when the terrain gets serious.

Why we like it:

It's the rare wide ski that floats like a powder ski but still drives like a directional charger, the shape is built to point downhill through technical terrain rather than slash around playfully. The multilayer wood core gives it a planted, confident feel at speed that most skis this wide can't match.

Who it's for:

Advanced and expert skiers who ski big mountain terrain, steeps, and deep snow with a directional, downhill-focused style. Built for skiers who want to open it up in serious terrain rather than session the park or ride switch.

Highlights:

Unlike the twin-tip Revolts, the 114 is a directional ski through and through, built around a multilayer wood core pressed in a sandwich construction with full sidewalls for the stability and edge grip technical terrain demands. The 3D Radius sidecut blends a long tip radius for high-speed composure, a tighter underfoot radius for tight-terrain agility, and an open tail that releases cleanly when you need to scrub speed or redirect. A tapered, rockered shape, more freeride than freestyle, delivers float in deep snow and keeps the tips from deflecting in chop, while camber underfoot preserves a real edge when you roll it over. It's a big-mountain tool that rewards a confident, driving skier.

Things to consider:

This is a directional freeride ski, not a playful twin. Skiers looking to ride switch, butter, and session features should look to the twin-tip Revolts instead. It also rewards an aggressive, forward-driving stance; ski it passively and the deep rocker and width can feel like a lot of ski.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Sizes a touch short thanks to the deep rocker. Most skiers can size up for added float and stability in big terrain, or stay true to length for a more manageable feel in the tight stuff.
