The Crux 99 is designed for backcountry skiers looking to explore off-piste terrain with confidence. Thanks to its innovative design, this ski offers exceptional versatility, allowing users to navigate various snow conditions with ease. The 99 mm waist is ideal for those seeking a smooth and adaptable skiing experience, whether in powder snow or on more compact surfaces.
HEAD’s LYT Tech is at the heart of the Crux 99’s design, offering impressive maneuverability on ascents and remarkable stability on descents. This technology reduces the ski’s weight without compromising performance, which is essential for long days on the mountain. Strategically positioned carbon layers, combined with the use of graphene, ensure optimal weight distribution and increased durability.
The poplar wood core contributes to the Crux 99’s lightness, making ascents easier while maintaining excellent responsiveness. This lightweight construction is ideal for skiers who want to maximize their energy efficiency during ski tours. By eliminating excess material, HEAD has succeeded in creating a ski that sacrifices neither performance nor durability, offering an unparalleled ski touring experience.
