Völkl Tiger Race SC review 2016
Best Accessibility!
PROSKILAB™ reviewers' comments
The Völkl Tiger Race SC is an excellent ski, designed to be more accessible than its rivals.
The ideal ski for good to very good skiers looking for an athletic ski that’s easy to access and perfect for leisure skiing too. A good ski for your first slalom ski cuts and turns.
Review: Pros
- A lively and easy to handle ski
- Agreeable, comfortable, easy to control
- Great accessibility for this "Slalom" category
- A versatile ski that will vary turns and is relatively happy on all types of terrain
Review: Cons
- On the other hand, although remarkably accessible, the ski suffers from slightly poorer performance than its rivals

Manufacturer's remarks
The first choice for ambitious and very athletic slalom freaks. Thanks to the UVO technology and the FULL SENSOR WOODCORE, this ski will fire off tight and rapid turns with incredible facility and agility. The light xMOTION bindings are perfectly adapted and ensure maximum protection.
