2027 Volkl Revolt 121 Skis with Marker Griffon 13 ID Bindings

The 2027 Volkl Revolt 121 with Marker Griffon 13 ID Bindings is the powder-hungry big brother of the freeski line, a wide twin built to slash, surf, and send through the deepest snow. A wood core, a fully twinned shape, and a heavily rockered profile give it the float and playful, switch-friendly personality freestyle-minded skiers crave on a storm day. We paired the Revolt 121 with the Marker Griffon 13 ID because of the Griffon’s precision and reliability for all mountain and freeride skiers. With a robust construction and all the best tech, the Griffon 13 is a popular high-performance binding choice for wider-bodied skis for good reason.

Why we like it:

That fully twinned, deeply rockered shape makes this ski feel uncatchable in soft snow; you can ski it switch, butter it, and smear it however you want. A powder ski with a true freestyle attitude.

Who it's for:

Advanced and expert skiers who ski powder with a playful, freestyle approach. Ideal for skiers who want to jump, spin, and ride switch in deep snow and big terrain.

Highlights:

Construction stays refreshingly simple, a multilayer wood core pressed in a sandwich build with full vertical sidewalls, letting the shape do the talking. The 3D Radius sidecut keeps a 121 mm waist manageable, blending a long tip radius for stability, a tighter center for agility, and an open tail for easy release in either direction. Fully twinned and heavily rockered with real taper, it floats effortlessly and rides switch with ease, and that much width delivers the surfy, planing feel that defines a true powder freestyle ski. Chunky edges and sidewalls give it more bite than the playful shape suggests. As we’ve come to expect from Marker, there’s no shortage of tech packed into the Griffon 13 binding. Marker’s Triple Pivot Elite Toe and Inter-pivot 3 Freeride Heel systems work in tandem to provide improved edge grip and control, as well as helping to mitigate vibrations for a smooth ride. A cleverly placed anti-ice rail sits on top of the toepiece and can be used to scrape off those pesky clumps of snow and ice that accumulate on the sole of your boot. With Multinorm (MN) boot compatibility, the Griffon 13 is a versatile and reliable choice for a huge range of skiers and applications.

Things to consider:

Specialized powder freestyle is the category. The width and rocker that make it so playful in soft snow leave it out of its element on firm groomers, where narrower skis carve far better. Deep-snow specialist, not an everyday ski.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Deep rocker makes this ski run a touch short, so most skiers can size up for extra float, or stay at their usual length for a more playful, manageable feel.
