Comments about K2 Skis SideShow:
Used this ski in many different conditions ranging from icy groomers to knee deep fresh powder, and it performed well no matter what. Definitely a good choice for those who want to do it all, and want a stiffer ski that can handle poor conditions no problem.

Comments about K2 Skis SideShow:
Awesome ski. Bought it for guiding. With a light binding (Dynafit) it works perfectly fine for long climbs. Excells in all conditions. If the powder is balls-deep a bit wider would be nice, but it works. At high speed it is maybe a bit to agile... All in all i prefere it to the hardside.
Comments about K2 Skis SideShow:
I have tested this new ski at the end of january for 2 days of powder. It is a great ski! Very powerful and easy at the same time. Very balanced flex and a bit of rocker allow easy turn in deep snow but on the hardpack, the sidewall structure holds the edge impeccably.
My first choice for freeriding and very short climb.
Probably the youngsters and fittest skiers can use it on long climbs to ensure a great downhill.
