Product Info
A versatile weapon for any condition, the 2008 K2 Apache Recon Ski feels as at home on firm snow as it does in fresh powder. Related to the K2 Apache Outlaw, the K2 Apache Recon promises unparalleled versatility with a little more on-piste performance than its bad boy brother. This is achieved through a perfect blend of waist and tip width for flotation, not to mention a sidecut as generous as grandma’s helpings of homemade pumpkin pie, for proven carving power. Throw in the two sheets of titanium in the Metal Laminate construction, MOD Monic lightweight technology, and the rebound-smoothing Marker Piston M1 12.0 or Marker Piston M2 14.0 binding system, and you’ve got one heck of an all-mountain skiing machine! The powerful 2008 K2 Apache Recon Ski performs exceptionally well in all conditions and terrain, and might just become your new best friend. So go ahead—survey the whole mountain.
Product Details
Other Features
MOD TECHNOLOGY: The ultimate in modern ski design. MOD combines an elastomeric secondary core that works as a high-performance suspension system and mass damper to provide the highest degree of ease, power, forgiveness and performance.
MOD MONIC: Focuses the benefits of mass dampening into a concentrated area. Bottom line: lighter weight, in all the right spots.
TITAN TECHNOLOGY: A visible extension of the standard metal laminate. Reduced swing weight offers a skier more control, with less fatigue.
METAL LAMINATE: Two sheets of titanium alloy run the length of the ski, while alternating layers of fiberglass and titanium surround a wood core. Delivers damp, accurate and unshakeable performance ideal for expert-level skis.
MARKER PISTON M1 12.0 or MARKER PISTON M2 14.0 BINDING SYTEM : Fewer moving parts than conventional bindings mean quicker, more efficient power transmission to your edges; 30% wider girth delivers increased leverage. The Piston system gives you smoother rebounding from turns, while the fixed heel and floating toe drive power down and forward. DIN up to 12 or 14.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Camber

Rocker Type
Camber Camber is the traditional profile for skis offering skiers lots of edge hold, especially on harder snow. A cambered ski has a smooth arch underfoot and contact points near the tip and tail when unweighted. Camber skis excel at carving on hard snow; you won’t ever see a ski racer on anything other than cambered skis.

Tail Type:
Flat

Tail Type
Flat This is your traditional tail, designed to have edge contact all the way through the tail, and only designed for skiing forward. This is also preferred for alpine touring, as you can stick the tails of your skis in the snow.
