Hi community Im hoping you can either quell my fears or reprimand me for my mistake. I recently purchased the Kastle fx95 from a European website, I believed that the ski was the fx95hp. I did not realize that I was getting the metal-lacking ski. Essentially Im asking: should I...

Hi; long-time reader @ EpicSki, first time poster here. I appreciate what I’ve read, thanks! I’m looking for 1-2 ski recommendations for next season. I’m a 6’4” 205 lb 52 year old late blooming advanced+ Squaw skier (some Alpine Meadows). For decades I only got in 3-24 days/year. I started at...

I recall getting on the original RX at Elk Mountain. @Living Proof joined me for that demo day and if I recall it is when he got on his first pair of MXs. The RX I got on there was indeed a special ski, the KTi billet aluminum plate was extremely responsive and the particular pair I was on was...

So what is it that makes a woman’s ski, a woman's ski? Artwork by @Dave Petersen For some manufacturers, it is a complete change in build philosophy; for others, it is different graphics; for still others, it is that plus a forward mount point. Are any of these right or wrong? Since not all...

Living in the 80s isn't all about neon and Miami Vice. The 80-90mm category is going to be one of the most contested segments going into the 2016-2017 buying season. There is a ski here for everyone. You want something pure hard snow? It is here. You want something that is more off-piste...

Due to apparent Pugski limitations on message size, it will be posted in two parts. PART 1: INTRO, SHAPE, and DESIGN. There is no free lunch, even for a Kastle's latest $1K+ all-mountain "sword." So, for the past couple of weekends, I have been getting acquainted with a certain...

Not all sizes available, $550 for the 84, around $600 for the 94. Also FX 104 at $625.98 https://www.theclymb.com/search?q=kastle

A few short years ago (two to three) the 95ish width skis sorta fell between the cracks. It is a shame because there were some very good ones, like the Salomon Sentinel and Dynastar Legend 94, and even the Kastle FX94 didn't get all the love it deserved. Now this segment is being attacked and...

If you could build your three ski quiver but only get to choose one manufacturer, who would you choose and what would that quiver consist of?

What skis have you had that were so good that you either stock piled or after you wore them out and just replaced them with the same ski again. Early on: Salomon 9000 3S, when slalom skis were still over 200cm...err PR8 in Salomon-ese Dynastar Course SL, light, lively but had to be replaced...

While I was on the lift today I was thinking about thread ideas and this came up. What skis have you been on that either have lived up to their hype and made you think, Day-um, these really are THAT good. Enforcer, skied it today and my lust for it has carried over from last season. Monster 88...

The 88-90mm All-Mountain category is one of the most popular, yet "all mountain" has different meanings to different skiers. In this case, any of these skis could be the foundation of an eastern or western quiver. As the season progresses, we should see some of them in Long-Term Tests. Snippets...

Just got back from the demos at Loveland. Wanted to try possible replacements for two of my go-to skis: my everyday teaching skis (versatile, but biased toward the frontside with a waist around 80) that I can comfortably ski all day for six days straight(!) and a possible replacement for my...
