K2 Sight Skis 2021 | 159cm

K2’s Sight is a proven park performer, happy dropping the pipe, sending jump lines and greasing rails. Over the years the design has shown it to be one of the toughest, most fun and best value freestyle skis and this latest version carries that tradition forward. The All Terrain Rocker Twin shape suits the 88mm waist and construction. Camber underfoot helps with the pop in the park and adds grip on firm snow; rocker at the tip and tail eases butters and smoothes initiation and release, giving the ski the right blend of control and looseness. An aspen wood core mixes resilience with lightweight, with Carbon Boost Braid adding longitudinal carbon stringers woven in to the Triaxial Braid for better rebound. Twintech sidewalls increase durability, resisting damage from rails and ski-to-ski contact. Dryslope, Snowdome, park or even all mountain, the Sight is always a good option.Terrain Type & Ability LevelTerrain Type Loads of time in the park, as well as getting all mountain too, especially for searching out side hits and messing about off the edges of pistes, though it isn’t wide enough for deep days.Skier TypePark skiers who still want to mix a little bit of all mountain skiing in. It’s a great choice for UK skiers who’ll be spending time on indoor snow or dryslopes as it’s not too wide and it’s built tough. It’ll suit intermediate or advanced skiers as it isn’t too stiff yet it definitely isn’t soft either.OverviewShapeFully tried and tested as it’s been around a while now and has made many skiers very happy. 88mm underfoot is quick and responsive whether on rails and boxes, kickers or just skiing around. The 17m (169cm) radius mixes stability with easy turning in a variety of shapes, and is ideal for freestyle or all mountain use. Taper at the tip and tail isn’t too pronounced but does help with handling in softer and trickier snow, as well as when pressing and butters.RockerAll-Terrain Twin Rocker is a gradual, extended rise at the tip and tail for added versatility and control in all conditions with twin tip skis. Camber underfoot ensures good grip things are firmer.CoreAspen is lightweight and resilient, a great all-round material for a freestyle ski.ConstructionTwintech uses a durable full sidewall construction providing great edge feel and performance with added top sheet resistance to ski versus ski impact damage.Key FeaturesCarbon Boost BraidLongitudinal carbon stringers woven into the K2’s patented Triaxial Braid for added pop and rebound, found on freeride and factory team skis.eB tester’s comments: Luke (Buying Team) The Sights are just a fun ski.
