    This Ski Is A Staff Favorite:

    Powder7 Staff Pick Zack
    By: Zack
    The FX series has been around for quite some time but the most recent iteration of the FX95 HP is nearly perfect. It is easy to tell from the title that this ski is 95mm underfoot, making it a perfect waist width to ski all western conditions well. This particular ski is the high performance version which is why it is dubbed HP and simply means it has two sheets of metal laminate for reinforcement. I am not saying this is a world cup race ski, but you definitely have to have some good skill to be able to navigate these sticks. If you aren't as confident in your skills or are a smaller individual- take a look at the non-HP version!

    Despite the two sheets of metal, this ski actually has a healthy amount of rocker to it- making it actually easy to bounce in and out of turns. Because of this- I feel this is one of the only stiff skis that I can maneuver well in moguls and trees. The FX95 HP is one of the best excuses for a western "1 ski quiver" that I can think of!

    Our Take On The 2019 Kastle FX95 HP:

    The best "do-it-all" ski from Kastle returns for 2018 with just a few very slight updates. The graphics have changed from a blue theme to a lighter and more subtle turquoise theme. The other more important update is to the core. Now instead of just silver fur, they have added beech wood as well. This should make the ski just a bit more damp and stable, not that it needed any help. The FX95 is your one ski quiver to conquer the whole mountain. A 95mm waist with tip and tail rocker allow this ski to excel on hardpack just as well as in the back bowls. Simply put the FX95 is a full wood core with no metal, while the HP version features 2 sheets of 0.5mm titanal. If you enjoyed the old model certainly stick to the HP, but if you found the old FX to be a lot of work or plan to tour a lot on the ski, the FX95 is sure to not disappoint.
