K2 Piste Pipe Telemark Ski

Item #K2S0172 | 0 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Good all mountain for an east coaster who goes West

By Ranked #35 - Telemark Skis and Alpine Touring Skis July 27, 2005

I’m a 5'7" 150lb skier in PA, WV and New England. I bought 170cm last year with the Targa T9 bindings and used in some epic snow at Alta over Easter. These things floated nicely in a foot or two of pow, and I was so glad I had them. They are stable at fast speeds on the groomers and can edge well on the steeps, and landing jumps is so easy. My other ski is the Super Stinx. Piste Pipes aren't quite as snappy in the moguls, which is why I rate a 4, but the bumps out west are so consistent, that they work great as an all mountain ski out there if you travel but don't live there. I would personally prefer a hardwire instead of T9 binding on this ski just for added stability and power.
