The name says it all for this ski, designed for fast aggressive charging on piste this remains nimble & highly responsive allowing you to lay down flawless turns. We have stocked K2 since we started the business & with the range & quality of their skis it is easy to see why. Speak to any staff member & they own or would like to own at least one pair from the K2 range. This year K2 have kept their range of skis the same, but have concentrated on improving performance. They have done this by using a new comprehensive build process where a skis top shape is redesigned to complement the side profile along the entire ski. They have called this ‘ Baseline 2.0’ & K2 has managed to engineer skis for varied skier types & even different styles of skiing, while also finely tuning them for a specific snow condition. For the Charger skis this season K2 have added the new Marker binding which utilizes the MX-cell technology. This features toe & heel technologies that focus on increased power transmission, the revolutionary XCell Piston technology in the toe piece keeps the boot catered during quick jolts & provides more precision & control in the centred position The Chargers are also using the Baseline 2 Precision Piste construction. This uses a blunt round tip with a short abrupt rise to help maximise the skis running surface & extends the sidecut all the way to the tip, helping to drive the ski into the turn. This combined with the speed rocker provides effortless precision & agility. Mid-body the skis have a narrow waist & deep sidecut for quick transition form edge to edge & unshakeable hold for hard snow carving. They also have the highest amount of camber for optimal rebound, power & liveliness. Finally the blunt square tails extend the sidecut into the tail for hold throughout the entire turn.
