Description
The Head Crux 99 Pro fits perfectly into the philosophy of Head's new range of ultra-light touring skis, aiming for the ideal balance between uphill and downhill performance.
With a 99 mm waist, it is often considered the versatile "Daily Driver" for Freerando, offering enough float for powder days while remaining manageable on firmer snow.
The Crux 99 Pro is designed for advanced to expert skiers who embark on long tours and demand excellent downhill performance in varied snow conditions (powder, tracked, hard snow).

| Level | Advanced / Expert |
| Weight (ref. 177 cm) | Approx. 1280 g - 1395 g (ski only, depending on the source) |
| Construction | Full Triaxial Carbon Jacket, Sandwich Cap (Carbon, Graphene, Karuba Core) |
| Key Technologies | LYT Tech (ultra-lightness), Topless Tech (weight reduction), Tail Notch (notch for skins) |
| Waist Width | 99 mm (The perfect balance for all conditions) |
| Rocker | Tip-Tail Rocker (Rocker in tip and tail, Camber underfoot) |
Turning Radius (Radius of Curvature)
The turning radius of the Crux 99 Pro is long, giving it exceptional stability and an alpine skiing feel on the descent, a rare asset for such a light ski.
| Ski Size | Sidecut (mm) | Turning Radius (m) |
| 163 cm | 132 / 99 / 117 | 16.6 m |
| 170 cm | 132 / 99 / 117 | 18.6 m |
| 177 cm | 132 / 99 / 11 | 20.6 m |
| 184 cm | 132 / 99 / 117 | 22.7 m |
Performance
Optimal Versatility: The 99 mm width at the waist allows the ski to float effectively in deep snow (Freeride) without being penalized on skins or hard snow.
Stability and Power: The 20.6 m radius (in 177 cm) is the radius of a typical Freeride ski, which is remarkable given the featherweight. This means the ski is built for speed and large, fluid turns with complete confidence.
Advanced Construction: The use of Graphene and Triaxial Carbon is key: it provides the necessary stiffness and dampening so that the ski does not float and does not vibrate despite its low weight.
The Crux 99 Pro is ideal if you are looking for the single ski for everyday in the mountains that climbs easily (Touring) but remains powerful and stable on the descent (Freeride).
