The read

The Rustler 10 is a freeride ski built for soft snow and off-piste terrain, with a 102.7mm waist sitting near the middle of the freeride cohort. Its rocker-camber-rocker profile aids float and turn initiation, while the metal-free wood core keeps it light and lively rather than damp and planted. At moderate weight and a medium 17-meter radius, it suits skiers who want a nimble, energetic freeride tool over a heavy, stability-first platform.

Specs & what they mean

What the Rustler 10's numbers add up to, as a model — the three things that define how it skis.

Turn & shape

A 17.5-meter radius draws medium-to-long turns and holds a line through them; a moderate taper keeps entry manageable without giving up much grip mid-arc.

Stability & dampness

Built without metal on a trueblend free woodcore, it's lighter and livelier underfoot — easy to release from a turn and quick edge to edge. At 1,880 g it stays light and maneuverable.

Float & width

At 102 mm it leans toward soft-snow float while keeping enough edge to hold when it firms up. Rocker at tip and tail lets it smear and release easily, while the camber underfoot keeps an edge.
