I have the volkl wall 185 3,5 years now and edges are still holding up. The bases are kinda ruined but hey I go every week to the indoor slopes. The ski is rather stiff, not so great for butters but really more for bigger jumps and impacts. It's pretty much a nice, durable, stiff ski. Völkl doesn't measures true to length, 185cm is more of a 182cm.

Volkl has been around a long time and makes quality skis. Can't comment on the Walls specifically, but a Volkl ski is unlikely to just fall apart without serious abuse.

had a run with my friends walls. thought they were gona be more stiff, but still planks as far as skis go. I could get a butter goin, but it wasnt easy or cool. solid ski that is light and has O.K. pop and durablility is great.

I have some of this years step and i really like them. Theyre the model between the ledge and wall. I find them fairly soft but really poppy due to the carbon stringers. In durability terms i have done 2 weeks of solid park riding on them and i have minimal topsheet chips with nothing coming past the cap wall bit. Minimal base damage and a small ding because i fucked up hitting a down rail. The sidewalls are a little more cut up than i would have hoped but its still minor. So overall from my experience so far theyre fairly durable.

I got myself some Vokl ledges 2013 just there last Christmas and they are an amazing ski.
They were really light nearly wish I went a size cause they were so light.
A real poppy ski and just easy to lock in those grabs, wernt so great for all mountain though but an aswome park ski really recommend it!

Volkl skis holding up to abuse is a pretty recent development... Anyone remember the Dogen?
