We work with the best manufacturers in the winter sports industry, but occasionally defects do occur. If you think your product has a manufacturing defect please contact us. We'll work with the manufacturer to determine if their warranty covers the damage. Determining if the issue is a manufacturing defect is solely up to the manufacturer, not Powder7. Please note, this process can take several weeks and we will keep you updated as we correspond with the manufacturer.
We offer a preorder opportunity on a small amount of select items that are in high demand. We will ship these preorders when items become available to us. Preorder availability dates are based upon manufacturer estimated availability dates. Please understand that this is an estimate and can change based upon manfacturers' availability.

The Kendo 88 is back and remains at the top of our list for frontside oriented all-mountain skis. Last year, Volkl introduced its Tailored Carbon Tip technology into the Mantra M6, and this year they expanded that tech to more skis in the collection, including the Kendo 88. Marked by its spider-web appearance, these carbon tips tailor the stiffness and torsional strength of every model to seamlessly match the terrain and skiing style it's built for. The carbon in the Kendo, for instance, extends further into the body of the ski from the tips down than something like the Mantra 102, to prioritize more frontside prowess and stability. The tailored carbon pairs with tailored titanal to optimize the skis for skiers in every size. So, the 163cm will have less metal than the 184cm, tailoring the smaller sizes to smaller skiers. The bottom line? You get precise performance depending on what you need and where you need it. According to one Volkl rep: "The skis still reward aggression, but they don't require it." In other words, drive this ski as hard as you want, but don't get punished if you don't have perfect technique all the time. Sounds good to us. Similar skis: Stockli Stormrider 88, Nordica Enforcer 88, Blizzard Brahma 88.
Topsheets: Excellent condition with light superficial scratches on the topsheet surface and faint scuffing along the topsheet edges from being used approximately 10 days.
Bases: Bases are in excellent condition with light scratching. These skis are freshly tuned, waxed, and ready for snow.
Bindings: This is a fixed binding. These bindings are mounted to a BSL range of approximately 326mm-300mm. Bindings can be remounted to fit any boot size.
