Level :
Rocker :
The playful power of the rocker shape on all slopes. At 126 mm across at the shovel, the RTM 80 is a touch slimmer than the RTM 84 and makes the groomed trails its home – even if it cuts a damned fine figure in the backcountry as well. The XTD woodcore, built into a soft full rocker shape and paired with the wide iPT Wideride binding, promises sporty, playful skiing fun regardless of the conditions and without sacrificing performance.
