Details: The 2019 K2 Wayback 96 skis are a great tool for getting out there and enjoying some backcountry skiing. Pair this thing with a tech binding and a lightweight boot and you are all set to enjoy the fruits of your labor. With a lightweight Paulownia and maple wood core, the skis are nimble, agile, and super quick from edge to edge. The addition of a carbon web adds stiffness without adding too much weight. The whole idea with backcountry skis is to be able to create a ski that is substantial enough to handle some serious descents without weighing you down on the uphill. Some ski tours are absurdly long, and if your gear is too heavy, then you're either not going to get as far or not have enough energy or strength for the descent. As a result, you need a good middle ground to stand on. That's where the K2 Wayback 96 comes in to play. With a 1550 gram per ski weight at 177 cm length, the skis feel super light when you put them on your feet. With the skin grommets and the feathery feeling, the skis are super uphill performers. When you start your descent, you'll love the rocker/camber/rocker profile that keeps you up and on top of a whole bunch of fresh snow. At 96 mm underfoot, they're not the widest skis out there, but the combination of that width and the tip taper and rocker gives it more oomph in the deep stuff. The 2019 K2 Wayback 96 is the perfect blend of power and weight for all of your backcountry adventures.
