Mantra 88 Skis deliver smooth power and edgehold from first chair to final lap
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I’ve skied a lot of all-mountain chargers, but the Mantra 88 hits a rare sweet spot—it holds like a race ski when the terrain gets firm, but it's surprisingly intuitive when linking turns. Völkl’s tweaks to the Titanal and carbon tip make it smoother and more playful than ever."
There’s a reason the Mantra 88 Skis have become a staple for hard-charging skiers everywhere—they’re built to adapt, no matter what the mountain serves up. Völkl’s 2026 update keeps the DNA that made this ski iconic and sharpens the edge—literally. Tailored Titanal and carbon upgrades make for a smoother, more damp ride with enhanced stability, even at top speeds.
With a multilayer wood core and full sidewalls, the Mantra 88 grips aggressively in firm snow, but the 3D Radius Sidecut adds surprising agility in tighter terrain. Tip and tail rocker keeps it versatile, so whether we’re trenching groomers, slicing through chop, or threading trees on a storm day, these skis are always locked in.

Phantom Glide By DPS Skis
This ski is compatible with Phantom Glide, the long-lasting base treatment from DPS Skis. Backcountry technicians apply and UV-cure it before the skis ship, so they arrive ready to ride with no waxing needed.
How It Works

Applied By Backcountry Techs
Backcountry technicians treat and UV-cure every pair in the shop before it leaves the warehouse, so the skis arrive ready to ride with no setup required.

Glide That Outlasts Wax
Wax sits on top of the base and wears off in a few days. Phantom Glide bonds into the base, so glide stays fast and consistent from cold powder to spring slush.

No More Wax Days
Phantom Glide replaces scraping, ironing, and shop visits with a quick base cleaning using the Phantom Glide Base Care Kit. The formula is made without PFAS.

Mounted And Ready To Go
When skis, bindings, and boots are purchased together, a Gearhead Expert mounts the bindings before the order ships.
