Völkl Ski

Völkl is a prestige manufacturer of winter sports equipment, best known for its high-performance skis. Founded in May 1923 by Franz Völkl, the brand began manufacturing skis in Straubing, Germany. Over a century later, Völkl remains deeply rooted in its heritage, maintaining its primary state-of-the-art production facility in Straubing, where it produces its high-end and competition-level models.

Throughout its history, the brand has undergone various ownership changes. Today, Völkl is part of the Elevate Outdoor Collective (formerly known as K2 Sports). The brand is globally recognized for its technical innovation and German engineering, catering to professional athletes and recreational enthusiasts alike. While the core high-end production remains in Germany to ensure quality control, some components and lower-tier models may be sourced or manufactured through the parent company's broader global supply chain.
