Shape
The Bi-Directional Taper tip is still wider but closer in width to the tail. This lets the ski perform exceptionally well while skiing in the forward direction but the taper enables the skier to have similar switch arc for better and more consistent switch riding. Unlike other categories in the K2 line, the twin tips are designed to perform both forward and switch
Jib Rocker – 0% Camber, 20% Rocker – Designed for the terrain park, this elevated tip and tail with zero camber underfoot offers the best blend of playfulness for butters and surface tricks combined with increased pop for unmatched ollie power.
Construction
The new Twin Tip Specific construction of TwinTech increases the durability of sidewall skis. A traditional sidewall construction produces a 90 degree angle where the top material and sidewall meet. The Twin Tech construction actually rolls the top material into the sidewall reducing the angle that is prone to abuse. The horizontal sidewall construction of the ABSorb sidewall sandwiches a urethane layer in between ABS for shock absorption, lessening the impact of harsh landings to the rider. Urethane is used underfoot to maximize the dampening but ABS is used toward the tip and tail to maximize performance and edge control.
Flex
Use: Powder: 40%, Park: 60%
Triaxial braiding in the core consists of braiding fiberglass around a wood core to provide torsional rigidity for added control. The patented machine interlocks strands of fiberglass around a milled wood core. This unique method produces skis with great torsional strength, while maintaining the lively flex patterns of the wood core.
Binding Compatibility
Requires a binding brake width between 90mm and 100mm
