Product Info
In memory of K2 legend Shane McConkey, the limited edition K2 Shane McConkey Tribute Skis are built on the K2 Pontoon chassis, one of the most profound innovations in ski design in decades. With its massive dimensions, surf-inspired rocker, and powder-specific sidecut that tapers toward the tail, the 2010 Shane McConkey Tribute Skis are an easy-to-ski powder weapon. An imposing tip width of 160mm combined with an equally impressive waist width of 130mm ensures the tip of the K2 Shane McConkey Tribute Skis will stay above surface at all times. And while technically a powder ski, the K2 Shane McConkey Tribute Skis deliver sidecut where you need it most—right underfoot—for maneuverability on firmer conditions or just to get back to the lifts for a second lap. Graphically inspired by Shane’s personality, ability and many contributions to our sport, the K2 Shane McConkey Tribute Skis are a must-have. Approximately 500 Pair of the unique, individually numbered, commemorative skis will be produced. All net proceeds generated by the sales of the Shane McConkey Tribute ski will be donated to Shane’s family.

Terrain
Powder These skis are for the deep days. If you like to find powder stashes at your local resort, go on backcountry missions for the freshest of fresh or heli ski trips to BC, powder skis are what you need to stay afloat. Skis in the powder category are wide and most often have some form of rocker or early rise plus a relatively soft flex. Many powder skis today are versatile enough to handle mixed conditions and harder snow.

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:
Rocker/Camber/Rocker

Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.
