K2 Mt. Baker Alpine Touring Ski

Item #K2S0573 | 0 in Stock

I'm trying to figure out why I would choose the Mt. Baker...

I'm trying to figure out why I would choose the Mt. Baker instead of the Work Stinx for an AT setup. The Work Stinx are 124-88-111, so they have a bit deeper sidecut. It looks like they weigh about the same. Any thoughts on this decision? BTW, I'm also a tele-skier and love my World Piste's for all-mountain. I got to ski the Mt. Baker in a 174cm and loved them, but I need a 181.

I've got a similar Q. Have considered both skis, and also the Karhu Spire. I see the upside of converting the Work Stinx, is that when my A. Kailas tele set-up dies or I want a fatter AT set-up, i could convert the Work Stinx as tele w/o re-drilling. Anyone ski the Work Stinx as AT? Any comparison between these K2 skis and the karhu spire?
