You could say: the term all-mountain was invented for the Deacons. Whether long, medium or crisp short turns, whether cruising speed or at the limit, soft or hard slopes, every sporty, ambitious skier will find their happiness here. The Deacon with 72 mm centre width was developed for all those who carve lively through all radii and like to let it rip.
The Deacon 72 Black has been reworked from the ground up and, thanks to its unique geometry with a widened shovel and shortened tip & tail rocker, shines in all radii of turn. The two-millimetre narrower centre width allows the ski to be edged even faster and with less effort. The variability is also made possible by the use of the Tailored Carbon Tips. The carbon fibres applied by means of the Tailored Fibre Placement (TFP for short), used exclusively by Völkl, allow optimum influence on the curve behaviour. The thickness and alignment of the fibres define the necessary power input and energy build-up exactly where it is needed. The agile blade retraction is particularly positive here. This means that directly at turn initiation the ski begins to guide in a controlled manner, depending on the use of the edges. In addition, this construction allows a lower weight without any loss of stability. Last but not least, TFP allows our designers to tailor all lengths specifically to the requirements of the target groups.
The entire Deacon range is made with 3D.Glass in the front and rear areas, and the proven multilayer woodcore with a poplar/beech mix is installed in the interior. Two full-surface layers of Titanal provide the usual tipiness. The riding characteristics of the Deacon 72 Black are also boosted by the R-Motion 3 GW binding. The shortened plate in combination with the wider hole pattern delivers a more direct, punchier power transmission and allows faster edge changes. The highlight, however, is the two rear screws that are no longer fixed, allowing the binding to glide freely. The ski moves harmoniously through the entire bending line with improved edge grip without being blocked. Overall, the Deacon 72 Black is noticeably easier to turn.
Understatement rules: The Deacon 72 Black comes in noble metallic black, cut-outs in the logo reveal the carbon fibres of the Tailored Carbon Tips.
