Description
The Wayback 96 is one of the widest skis in the K2 Wayback touring ski series. With a 96 mm waist width and almost a 130 mm front spatula, you begin to enjoy the possibilities in the fresh snow. The construction features the Paulownia Tour Lite shell, reinforced by the titanium Ti Spyne plate at the binding inserts, and carbon stringers that stabilise the ski along its entire length. Finally, the Wayback 96 also benefits from the Snophobic technology, a specific coating that prevents the accumulation of snow on the top layer of the ski.
What is the programme of the K2 Wayback 96 ski?
With the Wayback 96, we start to enter the freerando ski category. Capable of great prowess in freeride, powder or mixed snow, freerando skis are nonetheless light enough to allow you to get off the beaten track. This model weighs only 1,397 grams per waist width in a size 186, allowing you to save your strength and quietly swallow the difference in altitude necessary to get to that spot loaded with powder. Once you are on the right side of the slope, you will enjoy good flotation and excellent lift, the latter facilitated by the double rocker. Manoeuvrable on all types of snow, the double rocker makes it easier to enter and exit curves and to pivot. You always maintain control of the ski, with the ability to turn short at the last moment. On hard snow, it easily finds the necessary grip thanks to its classic camber, while its construction gives it stability and bounce, even if it remains a fairly accessible and comfortable ski to ski on.
Who is the K2 Wayback 96 ski for?
We recommend this model to intermediate or advanced skiers with a fairly athletic profile, looking for a ski with which they can make short hikes to access new freeride spots, hoping to stumble on fresh snow!
