Ski Kästle FX 85 HP (High Performance)

A playful ski from the piste to the trees, the FX85 sets a new standard in all-mountain freeride. HP is for high performance, so difference with regular FX 85 is the 2 titanal plates thatgive some additional handle d'adhérence skiing, even in extreme situations.

FEATURES:

The FX85 HP has highly durable ABS sidewalls, ideal for the demands of off-piste terrain. Two 0.5mm titanal sheets, sandwich construction, LOW CAMBER, HOOK FREE SHOVEL/TAIL and a new KADURA surface for improved resistance are combined to achieve a classic, light and versatile ski.

WAIST 85 MM:

Narrow enough for the piste, yet wide enough to explore beyond the groomers, this ski provides a mid-ground for those with commitment issues to one type of terrain. PROGRESSIVE RISE ROCKER provides easier and smoother handling with better floatation.

SKI GEOMETRY:

ELLIPTICAL RADIUS, a narrower turning radius in the shovel and tail, combined with a wider turning radius throughout the body of the ski, allows the ski to easily adapt to different terrain throughout the day or the season.

WOOD CORE:

silver fir creates a strong, light ski that adapts to changing conditions throughout the day or season.

Kästle s new camber profile delivers enough float for the deepest days without sacrificing every-day performance. Developed to provide a larger sweet spot, smooth transitions and convincing edge-grip for nearly every condition, Progressive rise adds incredibly smooth ski-ability to our all-mountain and freeride lines.
