Product Info
K2 Apache Xplorer + MX 12.0 Bindings 2009: In New England, they say, “If you don’t like the weather, wait 15 minutes.” That’s not necessary with the K2 Apache Xplorer. Whether it’s been puking snow, you’re ripping early season man-made crud or late season slush, or you were lucky enough to take your annual ski trip right in the midst of a mean freeze-thaw cycle, K2’s got you covered. Its Titanium Laminate Cap makes the Apache Xplorer Skis durable and lightweight, while the MOD technology absorbs shock through a secondary core that allows for independent core movement, greatly increasing flexibility and generating more power and control. If you’re an all-season, all-mountain Shredder with the power and drive of Lewis and Clark and the adventurous soul of Magellan, this ski will take you anywhere.
Product Details
Other Features
MOD TECHNOLOGY: The ultimate in modern ski design. MOD combines an elastomeric secondary core that works as a high-performance suspension system and mass damper to provide the highest degree of ease, power, forgiveness and performance.
Men’s specific MOD Monic: By embedding the solid 25 gram zinc mass into the Men’s Apache series, test teams found skis had a smoother ride because vibrations were lessened.
PROGRESSIVE SIDECUT: Provides wider-waisted skis with more versatility to be used in all conditions; confident and quick initiation on hard snow, with easy release in powder and crud.
Titan Metal Laminate Cap: Metal construction creates a damp and powerful ride. Two sheets of lightweight titanium alloy run the length of the ski, offering K2’s most complex and highest performing constructions. The Titan metal laminate cap consists of alternating fiberglass and titanium above and below the wood core.
Xplorer Single Ski Weight: 170 (4.27lbs/1937.5g), 177 (4.51lbs/2044g), 184 (4.74lbs/2148.5g)

Terrain
All-Mountain All-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Rocker Type:
Camber

Rocker Type
Camber Camber is the traditional profile for skis offering skiers lots of edge hold, especially on harder snow. A cambered ski has a smooth arch underfoot and contact points near the tip and tail when unweighted. Camber skis excel at carving on hard snow; you won’t ever see a ski racer on anything other than cambered skis.

Tail Type:
Flat

Tail Type
Flat This is your traditional tail, designed to have edge contact all the way through the tail, and only designed for skiing forward. This is also preferred for alpine touring, as you can stick the tails of your skis in the snow.
