Connelly Rocket 69 Slalom Ski With Tempest And RTP – XL

The Connelly Rocket 69 Slalom Ski with Tempest front binding and Lace Adjustable RTP is built for larger or heavier skiers who want confident performance, smooth speed, and dependable stability at higher riding speeds. Backed by more than three decades of refinement, the Rocket continues to be a trusted slalom ski that blends proven design with adaptable performance features.

Developed from the high-performance Connelly C1 platform, the Connelly Rocket 69 Slalom Ski features a slightly wider profile that enhances stability while still delivering responsive edge control. This wider platform allows the ski to build speed effortlessly and carry momentum naturally through turns, resulting in smooth, automatic carving with reduced effort. The added stability is particularly beneficial at faster speeds, helping the ski remain composed and predictable across varying water conditions.

The ski’s closed cell polyurethane resin core provides consistent flex characteristics and durability, forming a solid foundation for reliable performance. This core is paired with a performance glass flex sequence, carefully tuned to balance acceleration with controlled flex through turns. Connelly’s Advanced Profile Technology (C.A.P.T.) further refines the ski’s shape, improving tracking and edge engagement while maintaining a smooth, predictable feel from initiation to completion of each turn.

A key performance feature of the Connelly Rocket 69 Slalom Ski is the Versatail system, which allows skiers to customize how the ski responds based on personal style and preferences. This adjustability helps tailor the ride for a more controlled or aggressive feel, making the Rocket adaptable to different techniques while maintaining confidence at speed.

The included Tempest front binding enhances comfort and connection to the ski. Featuring Gaia foam, the binding delivers a softer feel against the skin while maintaining the support needed for responsive skiing. 3D molding increases rigidity in key areas, improving energy transfer and responsiveness. Dual lace zones allow independent adjustment over the top of the foot and around the ankle for a secure, personalized fit. The molded toe includes a stretch panel that stays flush across a wide range of foot shapes.

Completing the setup, the lace adjustable rear toe plate features a Lycra-lined floating toe that accommodates various foot sizes. The soft EVA footbed is shaped for grip and comfort, allowing easy entry and a secure feel once tightened and ready to ski.
