Kästle Sublime 88 W
What the manufacturer says:
The Sublime 88 W redefines versatile all-mountain skiing. With its progressively rockered tail, two layers of Titanal and a ‘Twin Core’, it offers incredibly agile handling, particularly off-piste. The ‘Powerzone Sidewall’ also ensures maximum power transfer underfoot.
SKIMAGAZIN review:
The Sublime 88 W is clearly geared towards piste skiing and rewards skiers who ski cleanly and actively. “You have to hit it just right, then it skis beautifully smoothly,” says one tester, aptly describing its character. The Kästle is stable, provides good grip and inspires a great deal of confidence on hard piste. In short turns, it requires a bit of strength and technique, which – as with all skis in this category – is down to its generous waist width. With its set-up, it is a sporty yet serious all-mountain ski for skilled female skiers who expect feedback and stability from their skis. For venturing off-piste or leisurely cruising, other models in the category are better suited.
