The 2010-11 K2 BackLash strikes the perfect balance for those seeking a resort-worthy ski that’s light enough for all-day tours. A 92 mm waist, superlight wood core, and cap construction combine with the smooth dampness of metal to deliver the versatility to tackle hard or soft conditions on either side of the rope. We’ve added All-Terrain shovel rocker this year to the BackLash Adventure ski which broaden its sweet spot and increase its versatility. And the progressive 16/14 sidecut supplies edge-hold and precision in a variety of turn shapes and conditions regardless of whether you’re dropping your knee or locking your heels.
