About the Volkl BMT 109

The BMT 109 is part of Volkl's big mountain/touring range of skis featuring their unique 3D ridge technology for the most efficient power transmission and lightweight construction on the market.

At 109mm underfoot the BMT 109 provides a huge amount of floatation on soft snow, as well as gliding over crud and variable conditions thanks to the tip rocker. One of the first things you'll notice about the BMT 109 t is the strange 3D carbon ridge built into the top sheet. This 3D Ridge design has been filtered down the range from Volkl's incredibly high-end V-Werks skis. This tech mills out strategic areas of the skis top sheet to maintain a solid central platform with a lighter weight tip and tail section. This is a very effective construction on performance skis as it gives a precise flex pattern, less swing weight, increased float, reduced weight, and very accurate power transmission. One of the best things about this is that it helps the ski perform far better on hardpack than you would expect from a 109mm ski, while still maximizing floatation in powder.

The BMT 109 gets a host of Volkl tech to ensure maximum performance in deep powder. The full rocker profile and early tampered sidecuts help the ski effortlessly float in powder. Whilst features such as the Ice Off Topsheet, which reduces the attachment of snow by 20-30%, helps to reduce the weight of the ski when ascending or descending the backcountry. Furthermore, a multi-layer wood core which mixes Poplar and Beech to provide a solid and stable platform that grips and rides hard. A Carbon wrap around this core helps increase torsional rigidity without adding further weight.

The BMT 109 is designed as truly versatile big mountain ski, its lightweight construction and shape allow it to perform just as well ascending the mountain as it does blasting down.
