It might be a bit of an all-mountain ski, but the Head Kore 105 Ski is as psyched on powder as everyone else at the resort. An uncanny combination of powdery performance and all-mountain versatility keeps us searching for softer snow all season long. We like Head's unique construction consisting of poppy poplar wood with strong Karuba stringers and carbon laminates for stiffness. Graphen finishes the construction off with enough vibration-damping in the tips and tails to keep us cruising when things get icy.
