A bit wider than a classic carving ski the running surface is increased by about 6 %. This allows consistent edging on varying surfaces and when carving makes higher edge angles possible.
The ELLIPTICAL RADIUS enables agile turns. The narrower turning radius in the shovel creates progressive steering characteristics. Only 5 –7 cm behind the contact point the sidecut merges with the shovel geometry. Precision and performance.
For maximum performance frontside a high tensile, low weight and high stability ash wood core is needed. The RX 12 uses ash because it exhibits these characteristics. Features: With a 0.8 mm titanal base sheet and a 0.5 mm top sheet; the stability is optimized and weight is reduced. The HOLLOWTECH at the shovel delivers further weight reduction.
A 45°aluminium bevel at the surface of the ski, distributes impacts and protects against mechanical wear.
With the help of the HOLLOWTECH technology the ski‘s running characteristics is improved. The cutout section in the shovel leads to a reduced weight of the freely vibrating zone by almost 15 %. The resulting lower inertia moments optimize the retraction behavior of the ski. This means that after an impact the shovel returns much faster to the stable condition, enabling the ski to keep its track much more precisely. Hollowtech creates even greater weight savings on the TX touring skis. And the Dual Hollowtech on the XX Twintip skis, allows for the fastest rotation and most controllable spin.
