K2 HellBent Ski

Item #K2S0993 | 13 in Stock
5 Star Rating

A bit Wider!

By Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete Ranked #4 - Big Mountain Freeride Skis January 13, 2011

Fun ski in powder for sure. Same characteristics as the previous models but 4mm wider under foot and measure true to size. Past versions were 5cms longer than stated. I notice the length being shorter, not a bad thing. I mount boot center at +6. These skis are pretty soft in the tail so you need more tail regardless of if you have never mounted forward. Fun yet concealed death and destruction graphics, you still could scare some old folks on the lift. Designed to land switch in pow. I use this on deep powder days when you want the fattest thing you own.
