The Head Kore 97 W Skis are the go-to choice for all-mountain adventure skiers who spend a fair amount of time in both the resort and the backcountry. As usual with Head, the lightweight Karuba-Poplar construction doesn't penalize the user with a loss of power and edgehold; these skis are fully at home in steep and challenging terrain and are surprisingly stable at high speeds. Whether you're looking to shed some grams on your inbounds setup or seeking a supremely capable touring ski, the Head Kore 97 W Skis are right on the money.
Tip / Tail Rocker – Subtle rocker in the tip and tail; camber underfoot.
Karuba / Poplar Lightweight Wood Core – Utilizing karuba wood in the core gives you the perfect balance of density, durability, and weight.
Topless Tech – The topsheet surface is replaced with a Polyester Fleece to reduce weight.
Graphene – Graphene is the strongest, lightest material known to man. Integrating Graphene into the construction of the ski has two essential benefits: a reduction in weight and an increase in performance.
Multilayer-Carbon Sandwich Cap Construction – Developed from the most sophisticated materials known to man: the Super Light Sandwich Construction makes up one of the world’s lightest freeride skis by utilizing Graphene, two different carbon layers, as well as replacing the surface with a polyester fleece. The ultimate construction for a high performing freeride ski
Structured UHM C Base – The same high quality material used in Head's world-leading race skis is used here. Different structured running base for all conditions.
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

All the hard charging goodness of the cult-classic STH 16 in a lighter, cheaper and lower DIN package is what the Salomon STH2 WTR 13 Ski Bindings are all about, and that's a good thing. Designed to deliver the same precision, power, and reassuring step-in as their big brothers, the STH2 WTR 13 Ski Bindings are ideal for serious freeride skiers who don't have the mass to warrant a heavier 16 DIN. The superior lateral power transmission, outstanding elasticity and low effort step in action in deep snow are all the same.
3D Driver Toe – Multi-directional release and elastic travel. Pivots in multiple directions in order to dampen shocks when landing.
XL Wings – Engages the boot better: confidence inspiring, easier to step-in in powder and provides more lateral power.
Stomp Pedal – A fixed, wide pedal ensures the best transmission from skier to ski.
Micro Simultaneous Wing Adjustment – Turn one screw and both wings move at the same time.
Manual Toe Height Adjustment
Heel Flex Interface – Guarantees natural ski flex.
Freeski Brakes – Self retracting brakes adapted to modern skis and practices. Eliminates hang ups on switch landings.
Easy Step-In – Makes stepping in very easy with no compromise on safety and performance.
Oversized Platform – A super wide (71 mm) platform ensures maximum lateral power transmission, especially on wider skis.
Progressive Transfer Pads – Progressive feel with increased dampening and less shock.
+Elastic Travel – Superior elastic travel keeps you in when you want, lets you out when needed while ensuring a smoother ride.
Low Profile Chassis – Low stand height for increased terrain feedback and enhanced power transmission.
High Lateral Transmission – More precision, more control to reach a new level of performance.
Adjustment Range – 28 mm
Height – 18.4 mm
