any of u kooks ridden wndr skis and know how they are for big mountain comps and charging big lines? kaestle disappointed me with their skis so Im hunting for something that is lightweight but also durable and has a decent swing weight for flips n shiz whiz. also other advice on different skis to hop on is totally welcomed as I really dont wanna be on kaestles again this next season

Which kastles did you have and why were they disappointing, just out of curiosity?

WNDR doesn’t make light skis.


slightly odd tactic for a backcountry focused company, but maybe it will work out better than 4FRNT

not sure about the skis performance but they are thinking 20 years into the future with the bio plastics thing. If that's what it's called, I'm not a scientist.

I had the fx106 hp. theyre heavy as all hell, and started to break apart at the tips, not a usual delam either like a weird crack that just went all the way through the design of the ski. super bummed. but honestly the weight and swing weight of them are not worth it. I just dont think theyre meant for big cliffs and more of like a powder groomer.

Don’t sell yourself short, I’m sure there was some sort of process before deciding to speck the skis with a wood glue and sawdust core.
