- The new 2025 Mantra M7 is going up in price
Volkl Mantra, a total rebuild of this very popular ski last season proved to be a real winning move, the new M7 has a modified tip that Volkl says will initiate a turn better than what the M6 did.
To me this is the most exciting new ski from Volkl for many years, it ticks all the boxes
The most outstanding feature of the Volkl skis with 3D radius is how well they hold an edge at any radius through the turn shape, you find yourself really enjoying the great edge hold, where other skis would be starting to slip to hold the radius of the turn.
The Mantra M6 has a big change from the M5, and now the all new M7 takes it one step further again with modified tapering in the ski tip, with a changed shorter turn radius and best of all a variable amount of Titanal used in the core, heavier more aggressive skiers get full titanal, lighter weight skiers on a shorter length ski get less Titanal to suit their weight and level of performance.
The M7 Mantra’s waist has remained at 96 mm.
Reinforced with a tailored Titanal frame, the M7 Mantra still cranks out some solid turns at speed with extreme stability.

We were kitted out in Helly Hansen gear which really kept us super dry and warm when we really needed it. The Elevation Pro Shell jacket and Bib pants was a lovely combo, I had a lot of comments on this gear :)
