K2 Superstitious Womens 2012 Skis Only

The K2 Superstitous Womens Skis are the best choice of expert-level women who charge the entire mountain and aren’t spooked by a blessing of new snow from mother nature.  Sporting All-Terrain Rocker on the widest SuperModel Chassis, the Superstitious provides top-notch performance in soft snow, both on and off-trail. Every Ski in the 2011/12 K2 collection combines tried and tested construction methods with a host of innovative features designed to maximize performance in any snow condition.  K2’s Skis falls into a number of different categories;  The K2 Womens SuperModel series are similar to the Mens A.M.P. series; however these skis are designed specifically for women, by women.  With thinner steel edges, leaner strips of Titanal and lighter weight bindings as well as the
usual K2 features of Bioflex cores, Women’s Specfic Mod Structure and new for this year; forward shifted Sidecuts these skis are specifically engineered to match the unique requirements of the modern skier.   FEATURES Core:  All of the k2 women’s skis use a combination of Aspen, Paulownia and Bamboo in a unique core known as BioFlex, a process where a dense Aspen core underfoot is fused with lightweight paulownia at the tip and tail to reduce swing-weight.  K2 developed this technology specifically for women; lightweight and easy to manoeuvre, yet sturdy and offering high-performance.  This has the Bioflex 3 core which is 80% Aspen and 20% Paulownia.   This means increased performance, strength and durability. Metal Laminte: K2 women’s metal laminate skis are built with a
thinner strip of titanal than men’s skis.  Proportional to lighter weight women skiers, the thinner layer offers overall weight reduction while still proving expert-level skiers the befits of performance and dampening, consistent with metal laminate construction. Hybritech Sidewalls:  Hybritech is a unique blend of sidewall and cap contractions.  The construction combines the accuracy, power and performance of sidewall underfoot with the lightweight characteristics and smooth turn initiation of cap construction. Progressive Sidecut:  Progressive sidecut is a combination of two different radii, or sidecuts, that enhance the versatility of wider-waist skis.  Standard sidecut theory is based on using a single radius.  This works well on narrower skis, but becomes overpowering on
wider skis, especially in variable conditions, The use of progressive sidecut on wider-waist skis guarantees improved turn initiation and hard-snow performance. Mod Technology:  high-Performance Suspension System Mod functions by absorbing vibrations and impact loads along the entire ski, providing stronger edge-hold and a higher degree of power and control.  Mod is a secondary core that flexes and moves on top of the primary core, allowing the overall ski flex to be unaffected.  The optimum location and thickness of mass differs from men to women.  The aesthetic look of the Mod shape has also been customized with a svelte and more stylized appearance that graphically ties into the design of the skis. Mod Monic:  A Focused Mass Dampener; The Monic is a solid zinc mass that works
in conjunction with the Mod structure to focus mass-dampening at the targeted location.  Although the location for this targeted mass dampening is consistent between our men’s and Women’s models, the amount of focused mass is reduced in our women’s version.  The women’s Mod Monic is designed to accent the overall look without sacrificing function.
