K2 Pontoon

By r_mccleary789606 Ranked #177 - Big Mountain Freeride Skis December 30, 2008

I rode a pair of these in a 179 just last week up at Bachelor in Oregon. The conditions were just right to let them rip so with 16 inches of new on top of the 100+ inches of blower light snow they received in a week I gave them a try. These things rip powder like it's nothing. I rode the Cone, 500 ft of hike to ski glory, 5 times and they laid down fresh tracks each run. They do bog down a little in crud and become a less manageable in bumps down to the lift. I also found that you can carve these things they just require a wider stance and more balance but you can rip them under the chair and make everybody feel bad about riding skinny skis. All in all if I had $600 to drop on them and another $450 or so for a pair of Marker Dukes they would be mine. Maybe next year.
