Manufacturers description
In recent years, the undisputed king among modern, wide piste skis still stands unchallenged on the throne. What has made the RTM 84 so immensely popular is its versatility - everyone has fun on it - fresh tracks, groomed, artificial snow, icy, spring slush, and powder snow don't matter! 84 has Völkl's unique 3D.Ridge construction that provides less vibration and highest torsional stiffness, i.e. Völkl's hallmark. Rocker profile in unique XTD Tip- & Tail rocker form, with a small span under the foot. In addition, the RTM unique Marker iPT Wideride XL bindings with more precise and much better power transfer between the boot and ski. All skiers with a little ambition should have a pair.

Strengths:
Nimble powerful performer that does exactly what you've told it to do, on piste and a maybe 6" of pow that is, better than your most loyal dog.
Weaknesses:
All those people who claim all mountain, NO, these skis (2012) are heavy and sink in deep pow. There're much more appropriate skis for pow. I'm 173cm maybe 166 is a lil too short, but I doubt another 5 or 6cm will make too much of a difference, it'd also make them less nimble.
Summary:
Love these skis on piste. They go fast and stable, never a hint of worry they'll go kaboom on you, clocked 108kph (67mph) straight lining down a long intermediate hill with no other riders. Holds well on ice (not my fav, but it cuts through), crud and everything else white on piste (no comment on yellow).
Model year: 2012
Riding style: Was 80/20 when I got the RTMs, now 30/70, piste/pow,trees,bumps,steeps
Length on the ski: 166 cm

Strengths:
Very stable at high speed.
Speed from edge to edge.
Good ice grip.
Weaknesses:
Much is required, much is given.
Summary:
Crazy fun skis that are absolutely best at high speed. Despite 84 mm underfoot, they work ok in slightly looser snow, but the ice grip they possess is no joke. Crazy good grip on ice, then. The skis demand quite a lot from the skier, but give the more you put in.

Strengths:
Terribly stable and comfortable regardless of speed with a fantastic ice grip and they fix bumpy parts very well. You never step through with these. Also works well in bumps, early spring slush and short turns. But even short turns require clarity from the skier. Easy to drop in cord if you start cowardly.
Weaknesses:
Actually none if you know that you buy a ski that goes best when you press them, and that they are "only" 84mm. However, the need for command should not be exaggerated so it sounds like driving on bricks. But compared to other skis in the same range, they require more (but also give more).
Summary:
The expired model now but should last a long time in the used market. Have 30+ ski days on mine and have not regretted a second. A terribly good piste ski from December to April. From icy carving to the first spring sorbet, from Manchester to 10cm of fresh snow. If they drop on the ice, it's just up to me. The ski always wins the duel against the thighs and holds the turn enormously well. Safe and stable, almost no fluttering. Relatively fast from edge to edge. Can be taken out in the woods but there are better alternatives then. Will probably never sell these ...

Strengths:
The skate is experienced rap and has amazing edge grip, I feel a bit shorter than stated by the manufacturer. The skate makes me feel safe and keeps the stitch even at higher speeds. Surprisingly easy going but responding as soon as you start working on it. It's easy to break up and add a small cord if required.
Weaknesses:
No major weaknesses
Summary:
One understands why it has won several tests, goes on RTM vwerks and this ski tracks the vwerks ski when I experienced it better on almost all points. Works all day from manchester to afternoon puckles. Very versatile and fits many riders from a mediator to a picky advanced rider.

Summary:
I was a bit bored one day on the slopes and decided to test a couple of new skis when it was a ski trial in Järvsö. I have been on my fisher progressor 9 for about five years and am happy !! But I went to the tent and told my wishes. they picked up wk 84 (never heard of them) and I lifted up the elevator. took it very calmly and realized that it was "weird", not at all the same as my fishes, but after the third ride I tell my wife that I would like to rent one day to explore. There was something special about them. two years later I drove down and left them back. the following day I ordered a couple !! Absolutely amazing skiing, never felt so safe on a couple of skis. two weeks later my son tries my skis when I sit in the top cabin in the vemdalskalet. He comes back after 20 min, puts me short and pick up the phone and order a couple. he went on a couple of fischer progressor 8. It was only after I ordered them as I saw the good judgment they received in different tests. longing for winter now
