K2 Touring: ADVENTURE – Backside Series

The K2 Adventure category is for those that want the option to put on skins and hike to the big lines. They range from 82mm to 128mm in width and some have a slight rocker shape to combine versatility in a ski that can trek.

Cores are wood but lightweight Aspen and Paulownia wood cores are 15% lighter than those in the all-mountain series. All backside skis have flat, notched tails for practicality in the backcountry and to allow climbing skins to stay secure and centered. Also, all skis come with tip and tail holes for the K2 patented climbing skins with the unique glide patch at the tip. Many models feature a tip rocker design that improves soft snow behavior but the normal camber in the remainder of the ski adds versatility in other conditions. All skis in this category are offered “flat” which is to say you choose your own brand of touring binding before you can go skiing.
