Kessler Ski and snowboard KST | ski-shop.ch
Now Kessler's board technology is revolutionizing the conventional
Kessler Skis. The secret of Kessler Shape Technology (KST)
is the dynamic interplay of baseline and sidecut.
This innovation, patented in 2005, utilizes the advantages of a
of a rocker line, on the other hand the sidecut is based on a
geometry. The ingenious interplay then provides the decisive
decisive revolution. The baseline of a ski with KST shows a positive
a positive camber, as we know it from conventional skis.

visible, the tip and tail lift slightly and the camber becomes negative.
