The Kastle TX107 Alpine Touring Ski is a freeride touring ski at 1,570 g per ski (185 cm) with a paulownia and poplar core, carbon and glass, and a Hollowtech Evo tip.
Kastle TX107 Alpine Touring Ski
The Kastle TX107 Alpine Touring Ski is a freeride touring ski for advanced skiers who want a light, powerful ski for deep snow and steep descents on long tours. A paulownia and poplar wood core wrapped in carbon and glass fiber keeps it at 1,570 g per ski in the 185, and the Hollowtech Evo Luminous tip, a translucent tip insert, cuts swing weight and damps vibration. A Hook Free shovel and tail with tip and tail rocker release cleanly in powder, while the 142-107-131 mm shape and 19.2 m radius in the 185 hold their line on firm snow and at speed.

Why We Like It
- The Hollowtech Evo Luminous tip insert removes mass from the shovel, cutting swing weight on kick turns and damping chatter on the descent.
- A paulownia and poplar core wound with carbon and glass fiber keeps the TX107 at 1,570 g per ski in a 185 without a dead, light-ski feel.
- The Hook Free shape moves the tip and tail contact points toward the middle of the ski, so it releases from turns easily in powder and crud.
- A semi-cap sandwich sidewall saves weight while keeping edge support underfoot.
Best Uses
- Powder and freeride ski touring
- Steep descents on long days
- Variable and wind-affected snow
- Big mountain objectives
- Skiers stepping up from a 95 to 100 mm touring ski
Ski Selection Advice
The Kastle TX107 Alpine Touring Ski comes in 171, 179 and 185 cm. A directional shape and long camber section mean it skis close to its measured length; size near your height.
For skins, size off the 131 mm tail on the 185 and use a 140 mm skin trimmed to the ski. Pair it with a pin/tech or hybrid touring binding; a brake of 107 to 117 mm suits the waist.
