Truly an amazing ski, the Kastle TX65 is designed for ski mountaineers who need strong, light gear for ski mountaineering races. Of course, the TX65 skis impressively well on the way down too, incorporating the alpine performance Kastle has perfected over the last 100 years. Its reputation as a strong ski on the downhill is well-deserved in the racing world and at 690g (160cm) it's probably lighter than your race boots! Constructed with a light Paulownia core and a double layer of carbon sandwiched between durable sidewalls, the ski can hold up to backcountry conditions while you just focus on laying down miles. Classic Kastle Hollowtech tips balance the skis and dampen vibrations 30%, which is quite noticeable when looking at a ski as slim as this one. All the features of the well-designed TX touring series are offered in the race version TX65, so this means a strong and stable precision instrument at an extremely competitive weight! While it was designed for the Ski Mountaineering World Cup, it's perfect for every race, every morning at the resort with your training buddies, and running around snowy forest service roads under the moonlight.
