Product Info
When the pow is so deep you consider a life preserver, reach for a pair of K2 Catamaran Skis and surf the mountain like a dolphin. This super wide powder-player is responsive and playful thanks to a durable and light fir and aspen Double Barrel core. Plenty of nose and tail rocker helps keep you on top, forward or switch, while the carbon reinforcements really come into play when you're poppin', jibbin', splashin', and laughin' your way to cold smoke glory. Set a course for maximum stoke on a pair of K2 Catamaran Skis.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Powder Rocker – High and long rise in the tip and tail to maximize float in softer snow.
Shape
Asymm Tip/Tail – Exaggerated taper on the outside edge only, giving the ski a surfy, playful feel, while maintaining stability and flotation with a longer effective inside edge.
Core
Double Barrel – Denser core over the edge for durability combined with a less dense center core for reduced swing weight.
Fir – Stiff, strong, dense wood for solid edge to edge performance.
Aspen – Lightweight and resilient, great all-around material.
Laminates
Carbon Boost Braid – Braided carbon pattern in the forebody and tail for added pop and rebound in the critical areas.
Sidewalls
TwinTech Sidewalls – A durable sidewall construction used on twin top skis that makes the top sheet more resistant to ski vs. ski impact damage.
Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Terrain
Big Mountain Big mountain skis are designed for charging big lines with high speeds and big airs. These skis varry in width from wide, powder-oriented skis for skiing Alaska spines to narrower, mixed condition skis for ripping the beat up headwall at your local mountain. Skis in this category tend to be on the stiffer side, often with more rocker in the tip and less in the tail. Powder These skis are for the deep days. If you like to find powder stashes at your local resort, go on backcountry missions for the freshest of fresh or heli ski trips to BC, powder skis are what you need to stay afloat. Skis in the powder category are wide and most often have some form of rocker or early rise plus a relatively soft flex. Many powder skis today are versatile enough to handle mixed conditions and harder snow.

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.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber/Rocker
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber/Rocker Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.

Tail Type:
Full Twin Tip

Tail Type
Full Twin Tip Desinged to allow you to ski backwards, full twin tips are found primarily on park & pipe skis and freestyle powder skis. More and more, we are seeing twin tips on all-mountain skis of all abilities, as it makes it a little easier to get around, and for the most part does not inhibit forward skiing.
