Black Diamond Kilowatt Ski
Kill-owatt

Ranked #38 - Telemark Skis and Alpine Touring Skis
January 30, 2009
Skiing in Colorado can be full of suprises. For example the other day it was raining at the base of the mountain and this is mid January. Now on the same day on the top of the mountain it was absolutely nuking some of the biggest flakes I have seen in a while. This is the great thing about the kilowatts. They have the ability to kill it in all conditions. They rip it up on fast groomers, and turn quickly in the bumps. On Pow days they have that nice shovel tip that keeps them up and when that pow turns to crud they are stiff enough in the tail to allow for big stable GS turns down pretty much everything. It is not too often that I am able to ski one ski well in so many conditions but the kilowatt does just that. If you are looking for a ski that can handle anything the mountain and mother nature throws at you, the kilowatt is the answer.
