Another drop off at my club today haha. Spring cleaning anyone?
Another Su-Per racket for your collection! Very reminiscent of the mid-70s Volkl Zebra and such. I'm sure someone like VSB or the other gurus of rackets past will provide some sense of the provenance of such a cool stick. Well done! Life in Da Hamptons is good!

That frame was new in '85-'86, but was a bit of an anachronism as its design was a throwback to the original Völkl "Zebra" monoshaft (only with slightly larger head and aramide fibers in the layup). I think it was meant to be the Völkl functional equivalent to the Kneissl White Star Pro Masters, but it was closer in character to the Kneissl White Star Twin or Rossignol F150 in that it was more of a baseliner-only frame: heavier, flexy, good control.

V engine. Looks like a real nice stick. Didn't know Volkl was around back then. Would love to try it.

Nice Frame great addition to ur collection. Volkl made some nice frames in the old days. Not to keen on the newer models.

Could you translate into Euros or dollars for an approximate selling price, please?
Wow, that is a nifty auction! Who knows what other gems lurk in the locals-only online auctions in farflung places like the Czech Republic! Putting aside of course that the Volkl World Cup series, that I've tried anyway, were very, very tough to get a good playing feel with.
