K2 Remedy Freeride, 2016/17

K2 Freeride Remedy

The two models Remedy 112 and Remedy 102 are two wide freeride skis with twin tip geometry with strong resistance, strong sidewalls and insensitive top sheet, which make rides in deep snow a pleasure.

All terrain rocker

As the name suggests, this type of rocker from K2 stands for use in all types of terrain. The All-Terrain Rocker™ has a slightly raised shovel for optimum performance in variable and soft snow and enough preload under the binding for plenty of precision and edge grip on icy slopes and hard snow.

Tapered Tip & Tail

Our freeride stability ski is designed not only with a narrower tip, but also with a small amount of narrowing in the ski tip. A narrower ski tip moves the widest part of the contact area to the rear. This reduces the weight of the ski tip and steering in soft and variable snow conditions. The narrower shovel allows more control after the end of the turn to better accelerate out or steer, depending on slope conditions.

Swap Base

The base tone of these skis can appear in two different shades, depending on how the colors were blended. This gives the ski multiple appearances and is to ensure that you are not riding the exact same ski that your colleague has also chosen.

Bioflex wood core

The BioFlex wood core is used in the K2 Women skis and combines the different flex properties of aspen, paulownia and bamboo. The harder aspen wood provides stability and power under the binding, while the lighter paulownia wood at the shovel and ski end provides easy turn initiation, lighter weight and easy handling. There are 3 different BioFlex cores: bioflex 1 - 60% Aspen and 40% Paulownia - forgiving and light bioflex 2 - 70% Aspen and 30% Paulownia - light weight and strong performance bioflex 3 - 80% Aspen and 20% Paulownia - highest performance, power and durability

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

TwinTech sidewall

This new Twin Tip specific construction increases the durability of sidewall skis. In a traditional sidewall construction, the top sheet and the side face are at a 90° angle to each other. This sharp angle is susceptible to damage. In contrast, the new Twin Tech construction overlaps the top sheet and sidewall, creating a flatter angle and better protecting the ski from damage.
