The Kastle FX116 is built for skiers who seek deep powder adventures. Designed with a wide 116 mm waist and generous tip and tail dimensions, this ski helps you stay atop soft snow while exploring off-piste terrain.
With a flat mounting plate for your bindings, the FX116 offers a direct and balanced connection to the snow, so you can feel how the ski responds underfoot. Its substantial shape—141 mm at the tip tapering to 116 mm underfoot and 125 mm at the tail—provides reliable flotation and smooth tracking through untracked powder. At just over two kilograms per ski, it delivers a solid, confidence-inspiring platform in variable snow conditions.
The FX116’s sidecut radius of 27.3 m (for a 175 cm length) means it naturally prefers longer, flowing turns, which helps maintain stability at speed and reduces twitchiness in soft snow.
