Kastle TX77

The TX77 is designed primarily for fitness touring and hard-pack performance, not deep powder. With a 77mm waist, it lacks the surface area needed for flotation in fresh snow, so it is best reserved for groomed runs, spring corn, or firm backcountry conditions.

The Hollowtech cutout removes unnecessary material from the tip, which reduces weight and dampens vibrations by up to 30%. This makes the ski feel much more stable and composed when you are traveling at speed or navigating variable, choppy snow.

Yes, at 1080g per ski (for the 166cm length), the TX77 is exceptionally lightweight. The Paulownia wood core and carbon reinforcement keep the weight down for efficient climbing without sacrificing the torsional stiffness needed for a reliable downhill descent.

This ski is built for the fitness-oriented tourer who values uphill speed and precise, carving-focused descents. If you prioritize agility and lightweight gear over float in deep snow, this is an excellent choice.

A hook-free design means the widest points of the ski are moved slightly inward, away from the very tip and tail. This allows the ski to release from turns more smoothly and prevents the edges from catching unexpectedly in crusty or inconsistent snow.
