K2 Charger
After last winter the model series "AMP" - AMP stood for Allmountain Performance - was replaced by the new series "Charger", K2 continues this series now in the coming winter 17/18. Newly joins the model "Turbo Charger" to the existing three models. It is slightly shorter than the others, has a slightly more bulky shovel despite a slim waist, and is equipped with TwinTech sidewalls, which are usually used on TwinTip skis, which suits it for fast turns and softer snow passages. Every Charger model features Carbon Grid technology, which means each model has a carbon grid structure to grant even more torsional stiffness and better edge grip. In short: sporty, grippy, gliding.

Ski technology from K2
Speed Rocker
K2 has 5 sophisticated rocker types. The Speed Rocker stands for maximum precision and turning ability on hard snow. The slightly raised and slightly longer shovel ensures effortless turn initiation and fast edge changes. The preload along the rest of the running surface guarantees racing precision and 100% edge grip.
Metal laminate
The ski has a lightweight titanium alloy that runs along the entire length of the ski above and below the core. Only the highest quality ski models from K2 are equipped with this most complex structure. Starting from the base, this construction consists of alternating layers of fiberglass and titanium wrapped around the wood core. Metal laminate provides superior damping, stability, torsional stiffness and precise and uncompromising performance for sporty all-mountain skiers.
Triaxial Braiding
Triaxial Braiding was developed by K2 in 1988 and is still considered the best process for joining fiberglass to a wood core. In this process, a pre-treated wood core is passed through a patented Triaxial Braiding machine, which wraps it with pre-braided fiberglass strands. This unique method produces skis with perfectly tuned torsional stiffness, and a forgiving character, without sacrificing the dynamics and lively flex of the wood core
Carbon grid structure
A new carbon grid structure inside the ski provides even more torsional stiffness and better edge grip.
TwinTech sidewalls
A durable sidewall construction typically used on TwinTip skis that makes the ski durable and protects the topsheet from damage.
