Adventure touring made light and powerful with the Crux 99 Pro Ski—balanced uphill agility and downhill confidence

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve taken the Crux 99 Pro on long backcountry tours, and it hits the sweet spot between being lightweight enough for the climb and stable enough to really charge on the descent. The 99mm waist makes it adaptable in powder or mixed snow, and the pared-down build never feels flimsy. For me, it’s a ski that delivers serious uphill efficiency without compromising fun on the way down."


Who It’s For

Advanced to Expert Backcountry Skiers:

Designed for dedicated skiers who prioritize long tours and technical lines, the Crux 99 Pro suits those comfortable with efficient ascents and demanding descents. Its versatile waist and responsive build reward skillful skiers seeking a balance of uphill lightness and downhill security.


What It’s For

Backcountry and Freeride Touring:

Built to thrive beyond the resort, this ski is tuned for touring missions and variable snow. From powder bowls to spring corn, the Crux 99 Pro balances float, stability, and maneuverability, making it a reliable partner for all-season exploration.


Why We Like It

Lightweight Construction, Stability, and Versatility Combined:

We like how the Crux 99 Pro sheds weight without cutting corners on performance. The Karuba wood and Graphene core deliver strength with agility, while the rocker/camber/rocker profile ensures dependable grip and float. It’s a ski that feels efficient on the climb and inspires confidence on the descent—ideal for backcountry skiers who want one tool that does it all.

Phantom Glide By DPS Skis

This ski is compatible with Phantom Glide, the long-lasting base treatment from DPS Skis. Backcountry technicians apply and UV-cure it before the skis ship, so they arrive ready to ride with no waxing needed.

How It Works

Applied By Backcountry Techs
Backcountry technicians treat and UV-cure every pair in the shop before it leaves the warehouse, so the skis arrive ready to ride with no setup required.

Glide That Outlasts Wax
Wax sits on top of the base and wears off in a few days. Phantom Glide bonds into the base, so glide stays fast and consistent from cold powder to spring slush.

No More Wax Days
Phantom Glide replaces scraping, ironing, and shop visits with a quick base cleaning using the Phantom Glide Base Care Kit. The formula is made without PFAS.
