The stoutest offering in Kästle’s TX line, the TX98 is a solid all-purpose backcountry workhorse. Designed to be playful in softer conditions and in tight terrain but still hold an edge on hard surfaces, the TX98 features a semi-cap sidewall construction and Karuba wood core that aid stability at speed, with low camber underfoot for immediate turn response. What’s it all mean for you? The 98 can hard-charge as easily as it hop-turns, just like you.
