K2 Backup Skis 2012

K2 BackUp Skis 2012: Do you prefer rustic hut-to-hut tours; scaling into the high alpine with a pack full of ropes, camping gear, and a week's worth of freeze-dried food; seeing no civilization and talking to no one except the companion you set out with The K2 BackUp Skis are full out backcountry ski mountaineering tools. Metal laminate and a narrower waist width provide phenomenal edge hold and feel for such an ultra-light ski, great for descending refrozen sun-blasted slopes. At the same time, the BackUp has Speed Rocker and is wide enough to handle variable snow conditions of all kinds making it versatile enough to serve out its long life as a resort telemark ski.
