RE: Do they ski big mountains in china

By Ranked #162 - Big Mountain Freeride Skis October 19, 2008

Since Xinjang has several peaks that are only a 1-2 thousand feet shorter than Everest, it's quite possible. Also your manufacturing question is irrelevant to how well the ski performs or is made. I've skied both Vashon made K2s and China made K2 with no quality issues. In fact the only skis I've had problems with were Austrian made but I don't assume that Austrian manufacturing is sub-par.
