The Volkl Secret 96 women's skis fill a nice niche in the all-mountain category for expert skiers who are looking for that mid-90's ski to take them anywhere and anywhere that skiing and snow exists. We talk a lot about the mid-90's skis and their ability to be everything to every expert skier, from deep carves to floaty through the fresh, and competent and precise in the bumps and trees. The Secret 96 basically eliminates the need for any other ski. You may want other skis as well, and we're not going to stop you, but from a "need" perspective, this is the one you "need." Built as a twin to the M6 Mantra but with a different graphic and different sizes available, the Secret 96 is a burly ski but is a lot more approachable than you may think. Quick edge to edge, the Secret 96 is the beneficiary of Volkl's 3D Radius Sidecut, allowing the skier to make any shape of turn at any time and in any conditions or terrain. This makes it a lot more intuitive to carve at turn at any speed. Shorter turns underfoot and longer in the tips and tails, the Secret 96 is smooth and precise at the same time. It's this ability to hold multiple personalities at the same time that will make the Secret 96 a perennial winner in this crowded all-mountain category, but it earns it well.
I see that this is 4mm wider than the previous version. How much of a difference does that actually make? Any other changes?
Question by: Leanna Peppercorn on Mar 3, 2021, 1:00 AM
HI Leanna!
This is a new model for Volkl, as the Secret construction basically came in the Kenja 88, Secret 92, and 102. The 96 is a mirror of the men's Mantra M6, containing tailored titanal frame, tailored carbon, and like the Mantra, Volkl's 3D Radius Sidecut. So you are getting a different ski with the Secret 96 versus the other skis in this range from volkl. This allows Volkl to adjust the flex of the ski more appropriately with the length, creating a more versatile ski. Have fun!

How would you compare the performance of the new Secret 96 to the Blaze 94 Women's? Similar dimensions all around. Both have 3D Radius Sidecut. Clearly the construction is different (Blaze's wood core and rubber tips vs. Secret 96's TFP + Carbon tips). How does that translate to performance for edgehold/crud busting? And to which type of skier does each suit? Also, my understanding is that the Secret 96 would give you similar performance to the Secret 92 but isn't as demanding on the skier for input. Can you confirm?
Question by: Pamela Kauveiyakul on Apr 20, 2021, 8:12 AM
Hi Pamela, Both skis are advanced skis but have different perks. The Blaze 94 is much lighter underfoot, giving it a little more pep in the crud, easier to pop the turn because the swing weight is less. This makes the Blaze more approachable for a wider range of ladies. Most of the ladies that love this ski can ski really well but wanted something a little more forgiving than a ski with metal in them. The Secret 96 is more aggressive, and heavy, making it more powerful. Instead of popping off crud it goes straight thru. The mental in the construction gives it power to get thru all the conditions and hold a strong edge while carving. As for the shape difference, there is not much, the Secret is definitely geared towards more carving and aggressive turns while the Blaze is geared more towards all mountain, with less carving performance, and more all mountain conditions and terrain. You are correct that the new Secret construction is going to be less demanding then the previous 92, since they have lightened up the construction in the new model. Hope this helps and let me know if you have any other questions, Best, Alli
Answer by: Alli R on Apr 20, 2021, 10:08 AM
Hi, I am 166cm tall. I am definitely looking for fast aggressive ski on a big mountain, no cruising around, for that I got other skis. My dilemma is whether to go for the 163cm or 170cm version? My slalom skis are 160, but can easily ski 165 too. My touring skis are 168cm and 175cm.
Question by: Lucie on Oct 26, 2021, 5:14 PM
Hi Lucie,
I would go with the 170cm option, the secret will ski a little short than that with the rocker in it, and the longer length will give you a bit more stability as higher speeds.
Thanks,
SE

My wife LOVES the Secret 92. Our question: is the Secret 96 going to ski like the Secret 92 with a touch more powder ability but otherwise ski pretty much like the secret 92? Or should she stick to the Secret 92?
Question by: Frank R Walther on Aug 5, 2021, 6:22 AM
The new Secret 96 will offer a very similar feel to the 92, with improved soft snow performance. Combined with the new 3D Radius technology, the new Secret 95 will offer an even more versatile performance than the 92.

Hello - i am looking to get my daughter some new skis. She had a big growth spurt and her old skis were Jr Mantra 148. She is 5-5 115lb, would you suggest 156 or 163? She likes to go in woods and all over. Aggressive skier. Thanks!
Question by: Chris on Jan 20, 2022, 4:37 PM
Hi Chris,
She should go for the 163 length based on her stats. Plenty of ski as well so as she grows weight and height wise, she will have plenty of performance left in that ski to grow with her as well.
Have fun! The Secret is a great ski and SE Tester favorite!
This guide is for Alpine Skis. For help with Nordic Ski sizing, please call us at: (877) 812-6710.
Ski Sizing can be tricky, thanks to a combination of the ever changing ski technology. It used to be that if you extended your arm upwards, you should be able to reach the tips of your skis. Then parabolic shapes came along. Then skis got wider. Then rocker technology came along, and, long story short, there’s way more room for preference and interpretation than ever before. The good news is that the all around quality of skis is increasing, making it more possible than ever to find a ski that fits your specific style and preferences. The bad news, is that it can be a bit more difficult to do- but that’s why we’re here. Take a look at the chart below, and if you have any trouble figuring out your size range, scroll past the cart to where we provide more information regarding these categories.
Sometimes you just need to speak to a expert, so if you're still having trouble picking a size, please give us a call at (877) 812-6710.

Skill Level Descriptions:
Beginner: Chances are you’ll know if this is you. Beginner skiers are classified as people who have never ever skied, right up to those just starting to dabble in Intermediate trails. Chances are if you’re the type of skier who typically skis with a “ski-mentor” or a friend who’s job it is to get you down the mountain. Skill wise, you’ll be able to control your speed with snowplowing, wedging, or forming a “pizza”. Turns will be slow and steady, and at the end of your time as a beginner, you’ll be starting to tip your skis to turn rather than pushing yourself to turn with your heels.
Intermediate: Congratulations! You’ve made it to the next level in skiing. Rather than snowplow your way down blue squares, you’re able to use the shape of your skis to make parabolic or carving turns. You’re likely still pretty cautious in regards to your speed, but are able to stop on demand and have a bit more confidence that you’ll make it to the bottom in one piece. Most intermediate skiers will be tempted to wander off trail, but may not be brave enough quite yet. Some certainly will, but if off-trail skiing becomes your preference, chances are you’ve graduated to the next level.
Advanced: This might be one of the hardest groups to identify. If you know you’re not an Intermediate skier still, but aren’t quite confident enough to call yourself an expert, then chances are this is you. Ski lengths on our chart above will fall somewhere between your nose and eyebrows. This is what used to be referred to as “Expert” until rocker skis came along and let experts go back to over head ski lengths. Characteristics of an advanced skier would be: the ability to ski most, if not all trails, an ability to ski fast, regular ability to ski off trail, and more traditionally, the ability to link full carving turns at full speed.
Expert: Hands down, you’re the best skier on the mountain. Ok, so maybe not the best, but you certainly could be a contendah, kid. Black diamond, double black diamond, centuple black diamond, it doesn’t even matter. You’re that good at skiing. Heck, you could probably even ski blindfolded and with your hands tied behind your back. Well, maybe not, but you get my point. If you’re truly an expert skier, you probably know it.
Other Considerations:
Weight: There’s no easy way to say it, but skiers who are carrying around a bit of extra weight should consider staying to the higher side of the scale. More weight means the skis will feel softer, and shorter. With a bit of extra length, the skis will have a more accurate flex and better weight distribution. Conversely, skiers who are exceptionally light should stick towards to smaller side of the scale, for similar reasons.
Use: This is a question that’s most relevant to advanced or expert skiers: Where are you skiing? If you’re looking to buy a powder ski, the natural notion is to go a bit longer. In most cases, this is the right call, but skiers should be geo-conscious before buying more than they can handle. For example, East Coast skiers may have visions of skiing wide open powder fields, but the reality is that 9/10 they’ll have to navigate tight trees before finding their 100 yard straight shot of glory. Out West, where things are a bit more open, it’s not uncommon to see skiers on skis much taller than themselves. Powder is likely the most common reason to adjust your ski size, but other specialties such as ski racing, park skiing, and moguls can all skew what size is proper for you.
Preference: Finally, there’s preference. While this isn’t a free pass to say “screw all that, I know I need 210’s!,” it is an official recognition that different skiers have different preferences which can easily change the length of ski they purchase. Myself? I size up. I like the extra stability on groomers, and with 102mm waist widths, the extra length allows me to use these skis in light powder on those rare East Coast days.
SKI POLE SIZING
Alpine (Downhill) Pole Sizing
The nice thing about sizing ski poles is that it's relatively straight foreword. To determine your size, simply flip a ski pole over, grab it under the basket, and place the handle on the ground. If you're holding the right size pole, you'll notice that your elbow forms a perfect 90 degree angle between your bicep and forearm. If the pole is too long, then your forearm will be angled slightly up. Too short, and you'll find your forearm angled downward. Of course if you don't have ski poles to try this out on, you can always use the chart below. Finding the proper length ski pole is important as ski poles too long will actually shift your center of balance to behind you, and a pole that's too short will put it in front of you.

Nordic (Cross Country) Pole Sizing
Cross-country pole sizing is easy as well. For classic or touring poles, the correct size pole should reach your armpit. For skate skiing, poles should be a bit longer. The rule of thumb for skate poles is that they should come between your lip and your nose. So you can measure yourself, or you can just check out our handy-dandy chart below.

We're looking for your Mondo Point size, and the conversion is easy! Find your street shoe size on the chart, determine men's, women's, or kid's, and find the corresponding Mondo size! Please keep in mind that ski boots DO NOT come in half-sizes. If you measure a Men's 8/Mondopoint 26, please select 26.5, for example.
BOOT SOLE LENGTH: What is it?
Your boot sole length is the actual length of your ski boot, in millimeters. This is the number that our ski techs will use to mount your bindings. While you’ll still need a final adjustment done before you can ski, providing us with your boot sole length is absolutely crucial if you’d like us to send your skis pre-mounted with your bindings.
HOW DO I FIND IT?
Finding your Boot Sole Length (BSL) is easy. On your ski boot, there will be a 3 digit number on the outside or inside heel of one or both of your boots. Keep in mind that there shouldn't be a decimal (ex. 28.5). If the number you see has a decimal, then you’re probably looking at your Mondo Point size which isn’t accurate enough to use when mounting bindings. Other hints that you're looking at the Mondo Point and not the BSL would be if it looks something like "270/275" or if the number is found on the bottom of the boot. If you’ve looked all over and still can’t find your BSL, it’s also acceptable to measure along the bottom of the boot from the very tip of the toe, to back of the heel- just make sure you measure in Millimeters!
ISN'T THE BSL THE SAME AS MONDO POINT?
Nope! The mondo point size is the generic boot size that every boot maker uses it. Think of it as a shoe size, like a "size 11" for example. The boot sole length is the literal length from toe to heel of that boot, measured in millimeters. It's entirely possible and very common for boots with the same Mondo Point to have different Boot Sole Lengths. Because ski bindings are so precise, it's crucial to have them mounted to the BSL and not the Mondo Point.
HOW CAN I TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOUR FREE MOUNTING OFFER?
We offer FREE mounting if you provide your actual Boot Sole Length ("BSL") in mm in the “sole length” box below selecting length of ski. If the box is left blank, the skis and bindings will be sent separately and unmounted. We cannot guarantee mounting if your BSL is provided after the original order is placed. If you need to find your BSL, but would still like to submit your order, please enter "I will provide" in the Sole Length box and we will hold your order for mounting. Please note: We are unable to mount Look Pivot bindings because the actual boot is required due to the extremely small amount of adjustment in the heel. Please remember, you will still have to take them to a certified technician at a local ski shop before your first run. They will need to set the forward pressure, DIN, toe height, and test the bindings with your boot to ensure safety.

Finding the proper length ski pole is important as ski poles too long will actually shift your center of balance to behind you, and a pole that's too short will put it in front of you.

Nordic (Cross Country) Pole Sizing
Cross-country pole sizing is easy as well. For classic or touring poles, the correct size pole should reach your armpit. For skate skiing, poles should be a bit longer. The rule of thumb for skate poles is that they should come between your lip and your nose. So you can measure yourself, or you can just check out our handy-dandy chart below.

We're looking for your Mondo Point size, and the conversion is easy! Find your street shoe size on the chart, determine men's, women's, or kid's, and find the corresponding Mondo size! Please keep in mind that ski boots DO NOT come in half-sizes. If you measure a Men's 8/Mondopoint 26, please select 26.5, for example.
BOOT SOLE LENGTH: What is it?
Your boot sole length is the actual length of your ski boot, in millimeters. This is the number that our ski techs will use to mount your bindings. While you’ll still need a final adjustment done before you can ski, providing us with your boot sole length is absolutely crucial if you’d like us to send your skis pre-mounted with your bindings.
HOW DO I FIND IT?
Finding your Boot Sole Length (BSL) is easy. On your ski boot, there will be a 3 digit number on the outside or inside heel of one or both of your boots. Keep in mind that there shouldn't be a decimal (ex. 28.5). If the number you see has a decimal, then you’re probably looking at your Mondo Point size which isn’t accurate enough to use when mounting bindings. Other hints that you're looking at the Mondo Point and not the BSL would be if it looks something like "270/275" or if the number is found on the bottom of the boot. If you’ve looked all over and still can’t find your BSL, it’s also acceptable to measure along the bottom of the boot from the very tip of the toe, to back of the heel- just make sure you measure in Millimeters!
ISN'T THE BSL THE SAME AS MONDO POINT?
Nope! The mondo point size is the generic boot size that every boot maker uses it. Think of it as a shoe size, like a "size 11" for example. The boot sole length is the literal length from toe to heel of that boot, measured in millimeters. It's entirely possible and very common for boots with the same Mondo Point to have different Boot Sole Lengths. Because ski bindings are so precise, it's crucial to have them mounted to the BSL and not the Mondo Point.
HOW CAN I TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOUR FREE MOUNTING OFFER?
We offer FREE mounting if you provide your actual Boot Sole Length ("BSL") in mm in the “sole length” box below selecting length of ski. If the box is left blank, the skis and bindings will be sent separately and unmounted. We cannot guarantee mounting if your BSL is provided after the original order is placed. If you need to find your BSL, but would still like to submit your order, please enter "I will provide" in the Sole Length box and we will hold your order for mounting. Please note: We are unable to mount Look Pivot bindings because the actual boot is required due to the extremely small amount of adjustment in the heel. Please remember, you will still have to take them to a certified technician at a local ski shop before your first run. They will need to set the forward pressure, DIN, toe height, and test the bindings with your boot to ensure safety.
CROSS-COUNTRY SKI SIZING
Fitting cross country skis is different then fitting alpine skis. Instead of fitting the ski by height, the skis that we carry are fit by weight. Check the charts below to see which size you need. Still have questions? Don't hesitate to give us a call at (877) 812-6710 and let us help you.
