K2 HellBent Skis 2009 – So you’re hell bent on high performance backcountry twin tip riding? Well don’t fret if you missed a pair last year, the K2 Factory Team inspired HellBent Ski is back for the 2009 season. Same design as 2008 with a facelift, the K2 HellBent incorporated K2’s rocker design into a fully functional twin tip. The Hell Bent is the fattest ski in the K2 twin tip line, with an impressive 150 mm tip, 122 mm underfoot and an elongated tail for switch landings. The non-rockered underfoot section of the K2 HellBent skis allow enough versatility to get you out of the backcountry and on-piste without a huge loss of performance. At evo we actually have guys from our shop riding the HellBent in the park. Vertical ABS sidewalls hold up better under intense impacts. Enjoy the backcountry the way you enjoy the park with a pair of K2 HellBent Skis.
