The new Kastle RX12 Racing Range

The all-new Kastle RX 12 SL is a top-of-the-line ski designed for skiers who are looking for excellent feel on groomed snow in small turns and who are advanced to expert level.
The SL designation clearly tells us that the ski is intended for slalom and for those who are looking for liveliness, maneuverability and impressive carving sensations.

Racing Skis

Racing skis meet the regulations of the FIS (International Ski Federation). They are narrow and rigid, with specific dimensions by discipline.

Giant skis are much longer than Slalom skis (at the waist versus 165cm for Slalom for men and at the waist versus 155cm for Slalom for women). They therefore have narrower tips. The radius is also larger. A large radius allows you to negotiate long curves with much more speed and stability.

These skis are reserved for expert skiers and require a perfect technique to be skied.

For what type of use is the Kastle RX 12 SL ski made?

The Kastle RX 12 SL ski is here to delight you during short turns. The ski has fibro-metal reinforcements that allow it to have stability, and a great vivacity at the end of the turn. This ski is one of the REFERENCES in slalom skis, it knows how to be ultra precise while remaining tolerant. The Kastle RX 12 SL offers exceptional handling on icy snow as well as on softer snow.

For which skier is the ski intended?

The Kastle RX 12 SL ski is for good to excellent skiers who are looking for a powerful, forgiving and precise ski to “send” downhill. It can be demonic if the skier wishes.

  • Core:

Wood core (poplar & beech) with titanal plates + fiberglass plates

  • Base:

Sintered graphite base UHM



Construction : 

-SANDWICH : Sandwich construction with straight edges along the entire length of the ski for maximum precision and performance.

Core Structure: 

  • Woodcore : Every Kästle ski is built with the finest woodcore, manufactured with a precision of one tenth of a millimeter. This controls the weight, responsiveness and damping characteristics of the ski, resulting in a high quality product that will last over time. The type of wood, or combination of different woods, is tailored to each model line, depending on the intended application of the ski.

Technologies:

  • Hollowtech 2.0 : Key technology patented by the brand, unique to ski manufacturing. By removing unnecessary layers from the front of the ski, the ski is more stable, the grip is more powerful, the total weight is reduced. The size of each Hollowtech is adapted to each line of each model.
  • Rayon elliptique : La forme du rayon elliptique détermine la rapidité et l’agressivité avec lesquelles le ski entre et sort d’un virage.
  • Fast Grip Shovel : Shortened tip so that the ski-snow contact is located on the front. The ski gains in reactivity at the beginning of the curve.
  • Fast Grip Tail : Heel which allows to obtain a point of contact ski-snow at the back of the ski. The ski is more aggressive and the support is more precise at the end of the curve.
