K2 Piste Pipe Telemark Ski

Item #K2S0418 | 0 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Great Resort Ski

By Ranked #554 - Telemark Skis and Alpine Touring Skis August 28, 2009

I've been skiing on my Piste Pipes for 4 seasons (since 2005). Great ski for learning to telemark. Great rebound. Fun on groomers, bumps, terrain park and light powder. Plus with the twin tips, you get respect from the knuckle draggers. And since the top sheet gets scratched up easily, you look very seasoned.

Cons
Noisy on icy conditions
Too Heavy for backcountry and epic powder days
Skins don't like the twin tips
Twin Tips create a large rooster tail that can be bad for followers
