K2 HellBent Skis 2013
The original undisputed ruler of the powder skiing underworld still reigns supreme. There is no question that the K2 HellBent Skis are the ultimate ski for floating and tricking through bottomless zones, but they are no longer content with just ruling the deep; the HellBent carries enough camber underfoot to make the whole mountain your playground, even after the resort is tracked out. Don’t like tracks? Add on K2’s Pre-Cut Climbing Skins for further access to deep snow missions.
Shape
Powder Rocker™ - Designed for deep snow with the most elevated tip and longest measurement of rocker, offering skiers a “surfy” feel with enhanced soft-snow performance. The camber region still exists to ensure edge hold in firmer conditions.
Powder Tip - Pulls the widest point of the tip further down the ski, which retains float in soft snow, and also minimizes deflection in adverse snow conditions.
Construction
Fir/Aspen core - Solid and dense woods known for their inherent strength and durability.
Triaxial Braiding - Consists of braiding fiberglass around the wood core to provide torsional rigidity for added control, making the ski incredibly energetic and responsive.
TwinTech Construction - Increases the durability of K2 sidewall skis by rolling the top material into the sidewall, reducing the angle that is prone to abuse, severely reducing ski to ski impact damage.

Additional Features
Tip/Tail Hardware - Rivets originally designed for durability now have the additional option of attaching K2 Trim To Fit Skins for climbing.
3.5mm Edges - These are thicker and far more resistant to cracking.
Swap Base - Ski bases are made with inverse colors so that less material is wasted
Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width that is equal to the ski waist width and at most 15 mm wider.
