Touring Ski K2 Wayback 88 - 2023

It’s hard to believe something that’s practically featherweight can still deliver on the descents. The Wayback 88’s are the perfect combination of versatility and capability.

The Titanal-reinforced Wayback 88 will change your opinion of lightweight touring skis. They can fly up the skin track with the best of ‘em, yet inspire confidence when the snow is variable and the descents are steep. An All-Terrain Rocker and Ti Spyne construction deliver stability and control in any conditions while unidirectional carbon fiber and a Snophobic Topsheet keep things light. After all, why hike all the way up, if the cruise down isn’t enjoyable?
