Volkl decided the Ledge Alpine Ski should let you ride switch, pull whatever tricks you want in the park, and hang with your all-mountain buddies once in a while, so it made some big changes for the ’09 season. Volkl gave the Ledge Ski a symmetrical shape and a soft butter zone. What the ballz is a soft butter zone? The b-zone places snappy poplar wood in the forebody of the ski for sweet jibbing and a dense wood around the binding for screw retention and durability. Printed vertical sidewalls look sweet, and a full armed edge (the edges are anchored to the Volkl logos in the middle of the ski) provides bomber durability for hitting rails.
Bottom Line: Push your game forward and switch.

These are some nice skis. I just got them mounted with Rossignol SAS2 120 bindings, which works nicely. They can hold an edge pretty well, except on slow speeds which is understandable for all twin-tips. Overall, very nice ski, except they come with some adhesive stuff on the bottom, so I would recommend waxing before skiing on them for the first time.
