The nimblest of the Rustler series, the Rustler 9 doesn’t necessarily need a powder day to make yours. Whether you're ripping through the trees or laying trenches back to the lift for another go, these babies are built for fun. At the heart of the redesigned Rustler 9 is a lightweight, energetic Freeride Trueblend woodcore and an all-new FluxForm technology. Trueblend and FluxForm are designed to work together to provide stability and strength underfoot, yet retain playfulness in the tip and tail. So feel free to Press Send, the Rustler 9 is specifically engineered to make you hoot and holler all over the hill.
Perfect Balanced Flex:
We have designed a specific Trueblend Free Woodcore for our freeride / back country category skis. It combines beech and poplar – two wood types that guarantee performance – with paulownia for a lightweight, yet high-performance wood core.
The result: the right flex to cover for all backcountry requirements in a lighter package.
Performance Without Compromises:
The Trueblend Free Woodcore specifically positions three different densities of wood together to form a woodcore that is specifically designed to optimize the flex of the ski and deliver a smooth and balanced feeling.
This blending of the different densities of wood creates three distinct flex zones; a softer flex zone in the tip and tail areas, that facilitates easy turn initiation and release, a medium flex zone in front of and behind the binding, that helps deliver confidence and control and finally a stiffer flex zone in the center, underneath the binding, that guarantees perfect edge grip and stability.
Trueblend woodcores are designed to provide just the right amount what you need, performance, control, and confidence, to do what you want, when you want anywhere on the mountain.
