The 102 is the most versatile model in K2's all-terrain, all-condition Reckoner range. The Carbon Spectral Braid on the 102 makes it noticeably lighter than other K2 skis that have been around the same
Dimensions, which also makes for tips & tails that feel relatively soft & helps create a ski that feels poppy & responsive whether skiing trees or powder bumps. The directional sidecut & Double Barrel core shine when crushing turns on groomers. Put simply, if you re looking for playful all condition ski that will be as much fun around the mountain as it is in the park, then K2 have nailed it for you with the Reckoner 102. Terrain Type & Ability Level Terrain Type The 102 is super versatile, happy spending days in the park, finding hits around the mountain, crushing tight trees or getting deep on pow laps. Skier Type Skiers who do everything, from the park to natural hits, or just messing around the mountain popping, carving & slashing. Overview Shape Twin Rocker with a 102 waist & directional sidecut. Loads of manoeuvrability, plenty of float when you find the goods & the kind of response you want when charging. Rocker All-Terrain Twin Rocker is a gradual, extended rise at the tip & tail for added versatility & control in all conditions with twin tip skis. Camber underfoot helps with the pop in the park & adds grip on firm snow; the gradual rocker at the tip & tail ease butters & smooth initiation & release, giving the ski the right blend of control & looseness. Core Double Barrel. A dense, fir core over the edges for power & imapct resistance & lighter aspen centre core for a lively, energetic feel. Construction Twin Tech Sidewall construction utilises durable full sidewalls to provide great edge feel & performance, with a cap effect for added top sheet resistance to ski versus ski impact damage. Key Features Carbon Spectral Braid Similar to the Mindbender series, Spectral Blend is also used in the Reckoner collection with some slight adjustments. This time, the tighter angles are found underfoot instead of in the tip of the ski. More open angles are found in both the tip & tail increasing the playfulness throughout the ski while still allowing for the ski to be both reliable & energetic. Carbon Boost Longitudinal carbon stringers are woven into the patented Triaxial Braid for added pop & rebound. EB tester’s comments: Mark (Trainer) I'd definitely take this if I could only take one ski with me. It was a blast & I feel like I could pick any line, in any condition, & be fine.
