Comments about K2 Skis GotBack:
I tried these out in Vail on a Powder Day, at first I was a bit tentative because they are so fat underneath, but I soon realized that the more agressive and confident I became on them, the better they responded- they were fast and fabulous; which made for a Super Fun Pow Day. I even dipped into some bumps and had a good time. Can't Wait for more Snow!

Comments about K2 Skis GotBack:
I got this ski with the idea that it would be my new powder/back-country ski, and was a bit concerned with how well they would ride in more hard-packed conditions. I tried them out this weekend, and was thrilled to discover that they rocked both the groomed, hard-packed, and chunky stuff at Snowmass, as well as the deep powder in the Bowl at Aspen Highlands. Haven't gotten into the super large moguls yet, so will have to hold off judgment there. That said, I think I just found my new everyday ski!

Baby gets back on these skis. I work on the mountain at Schweitzer, and I love it that I can put these on in the morning and not have to worry about changing as soon as it gets cut up. Very manageable on the hard stuff. But even better, they're heaven in the powder; talk about getting wings...

Comments about K2 Skis GotBack:
I just returned from a week of Heli-skiing with CMH. They have added the Gotbacks to their selection. I found them to be great and loads of fun. I skied them in thigh deep powder, some windpack, through Alpine terrain, steep tree runs, cutblocks and even logging roads. They were great. I would definitely recommend these for varied terrain.

Comments about K2 Skis GotBack:
This is the perfect ski and my favorite for skiing the conditions and terrain in Jackson Hole. Skiing at Jackson is like a box of chocolates, always sweet and you never know what you're going to get. Conditions can go from deep powder to crud to corn depending on the altitude and changing weather conditions. You need a ski that you can rely on and keep you charging all day.
The Gotback is 102 underfoot, which provides the stability I need to be aggressive in powder and on hardpack. They float when I need them to, carve effortlessly and hold speed through variable terrain. The 135cm shovel has a mini rocker which keeps the tips on top of the snow.
This is the perfect ski to have in your quiver for powder days and my choice for everyday skiing.
