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.

A real weapon in K2’s all mountain ski & a true cross over between ‘all mountain’ their ‘freeride’ skis this is stiff, aggressive & great fun. 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. The K2 AMP 90XTI has inherited a split personality from two different categories, the popular Rictor takes on a wide 90mm waist to bridge All-Mountain performance with hard-charging Freeride Skis. These skis use K2’s All mountain baseline 2 technology.  These feature a shorter, round tip for predictable turn initiation, the tip ride is traditional, but when combined with All-Terrain Rocker it becomes even more versatile in all snow conditions.  Underfoot the skis boast a moderate sidecut that delivers stability & bigger sweet sports in all turns shapes whilst the tail are blunt & round creating a predictable turn release.  These skis have flat tails with camber extending right into the tail to offer great rebound.

An instructor or liftie This was a new ski for last season & was one of my personal favourites when out on the ski test.  The Rictor has been around for a number of seasons but they have been overhauled & just get better & better.  This is stiff & so you have to work this slightly harder if taking if off piste & I really don’t want to use the word versatile as it is overused in the ski industry so i will say that this is extremely ‘multifunctional’  this ski really will excel no matter what is thrown at it. Is this for me? For the expert skier who enjoys fast aggressive skiing but would like the width to go off the sides or cope when there is a fresh dump. As harry says above it needs to be skied, but you can relax a bit towards the end of the day & still get down the mountain, it will just be at its best when laying down long sweeping turns on fresh corduroy, cutting through chopped up cruddy snow or venturing off the side to explore what the mountain has to offer.
