Put the mountain on notice: you're coming, and you're bringing the K2 Aftershock Ski. A devastating hail of metal laminate construction, Hybritech sidewalls, and integrated Marker/K2 MX 14.0 bindings makes the widest ski in K2's A.M.P. Series a nightmare on and off the groomers. All-Terrain Rocker lets you charge the trees confidently without losing any hardpack performance.

Metal laminate Hybritech construction brings the powerful edge hold of vertical sidewalls and the durable light weight of cap construction
All-Terrain Rocker lifts the front 30% of the ski to plane faster, improve turn initiation at slow speeds, and remain stable over changing snow
Binding system utilizes 50mm-wide Titanal hubs embedded into the ski for efficient power transfer to the edges
Mod technology allows core layers to shift on impact, absorbing vibration without affecting flex

Bottom Line: The unofficial mayor of the all-mountain category.

Is this a womens ski and for what level?

No, the woman's version of these skis would be the Lotta Luv. Both the Lotta Luv and the Aftershock (listed above) are advertised by K2 as an expert-level all-mountain set of skis. The Lotta Luv, as well as the Aftershock, are wide enough to do moderately well in loose snow and powder, but are still very manageable on groomed snow. Because of this, both the Lotta Luv and the Aftershock could be described as "all around" skis. I have not ridden the Lotta Luv or this set of ski's and can not tell you how they ride from first hand experience. For more detailed information you can go to the manufacturers web site at www.k2skis.com. By the way, the slightly wider Aftershock replaced the Apache Xplorer for 2010/2011

Great All-Mountain ski!

First of all, let me start by saying that I am an intermediate to expert skier, 5'10" 170 lbs and my Aftershocks are the 174's. I am no pro skier by any means (still learning to do moguls!), but I am known to tear the slopes apart with speed. These are now my 5th pair of ski's that I have owned, not to mention the few that I have rented in the past years. I also tried out my friend's K2 Explorers...These ski's pretty much do it all. They felt good on groomed, & felt better and better with the more snow you threw at them. These make real nice long turns, can make somewhat shorter turns when you make the effort (I am comparing the turns to my last pair of Atomic 9.18's, and my other pair of Atomic D2 Race SL's (which aren't the same type of ski by any means). Great at high speed and I had plenty of control. Very interesting to see the tips flopping around a little bit, but overall I think that K2 is onto something here. I was in all different terrain, never really had any issues. They gave me lots of confidence while rippin' down the mountain, especially on mixed, choppy stuff... I just sailed right over everything. The Explorers, in my opinion, felt a little less controllable. Very happy with my purchase!
