Lightweight & easy-going the LX72 is incredibly easy to ski for the progressing intermediate skier. Ideal for women, but also for lighter male skiers too wanting a forgiving carver to develop their skiing on. One of Kastle’s main technological advantages is their patented hollowtech design system. This has been developed over the last 30yrs and means that the tip of each ski has oval-shaped cut-outs, leaving just a layer of opaque fibreglass this reduces the weight of each ski shovel by up to 15 percent. The decrease in mass helps the ski minimize vibrations & hold an edge more precisely. This coupled with using only the latest & best materials to construct their cores & their timeless clean graphics means that Kastle’s dedication to producing some of the world’s best skis will carry on for another season. The LX range from Kastle utilizes a lighter weight wood core & so is idea for women or slightly lighter or less aggressive male skiers, who want all the benefits that you would get from the Kastle MX range, but without the weight. These skis have been popular for a number of seasons now & have won many awards, mainly thanks to the easy handling & sporty nature of this all mountain ski. Ski Features Hollowtech: This is Kastle’s proprietary Hollowtech technology ensures a smooth ride & consistent edge tracking. Hollowtech is the evolution of a 30-year-old Kastle innovation. The tip of each ski has oval-shaped cut-outs, leaving just a layer of opaque fibreglass. Hollowtech reduces the weight of each ski shovel by up to 15 percent. The decrease in mass helps the ski minimize vibrations & hold an edge more precisely. The 2014/15 Kastle ski line feature more Hollowtech than ever. LX: The LX range offers a lightweight feel with uncompromising performance. These skis feel agile, confidence inspiring & are incredibly easy to ski on. Fast Grip shovel & tail: This means that the widest point at the tip & tail of the ski is just further forward than the contact point. This allows easy turn initiation, but as soon as you put them on edge then will take to the turn & initiate the carve. Waist 72 mm: Outstanding handling characteristics especially in all piste conditions & confidence inspiring thanks to the oversized tip & rounded tail. Ski geometry: The single radius masters varying conditions & difficult terrains. The harmonious sidecut enables a smooth & exceptional ride. Wood core: Silver fir (~0.55 kg/dm³) has been used for the wood core, providing the ski with a very low weight. In order to combine a comfortable longitudinal flex design with high torsional rigidity, the traditional sandwich core concept has been reinforced with a structural element. This wood core, in combination with titanal sheeting, allows perfect harmonization of vibrations & flexing characteristics. the supporting cap from various fibreglass sheets acts like a torsional box, equipping the ski with high torsional rigidity
Features: By using a 0.5 mm titanal base & top sheet high stability is achieved for on-piste performance. In combination with the all other utilized technologies a dynamic & lightweight ski could be created. Ski Specification
