K2 Charger

 

 

The 2010-11 A.M.P. Charger takes over for the Apache Crossfire and this high performance new model features a Metal Lainate Hybritech construction, making the ski secure and solid underfoot yet lighter weight in the tip and tail for quicker, more accurate turns on firmer snow. Add in Speed Rocker technology and the K2 Charger ski becomes even more nimble, precise and easy to initiate on groomers or any condition found at the resort. This All Mountain K2 Charger is the ultimate tool for an expert level skier focused on linking perfect turns on corduroy or any snow condition. Not available until snow base adequately covers obstructions.

Speed Rocker

This slightly elevated tip and increased tip length provides effortless initiation and flawless transitions, while camber along the rest of the running surface delivers race-ski precision, power and edge-hold.

Hybritech Sidewalls

This wider-waisted construction combines the accuracy and power performance of sidewall underfoot with the lightweight and smooth turn initiation of cap construction. Offered exclusively on the Side series, Hybritech makes skis strong, accurate and powerful underfoot, while maintaining smooth initiation and easy exits from turns.

Men's Specific MOD Structure

The shape of the secondary elastomeric core has been sculpted to distribute mass in ways that ensure the smoothest ride. Overall the MOD is thickest toward the center of the ski to insulate the skier from vibrations and tapers toward the tip and tail to minimize swing weight making the skis easier to maneuver. The optimum location and thickness of mass differs from men to women reflected in the different MOD shapes for our A.M.P. and T:Nine series of skis. The men’s MOD structure distributes the mass of the secondary core increasing torsional rigidity through its X shape MOD design and perimeter mass for increased edge hold.

Metal Laminate Technology

With two sheets of lightweight titanium alloy running the length of the ski, metal laminate skis are the highest performing and most complex constructions available from K2. Built from the base up, this construction consists of alternating layers of fiberglass and titanium above and below the wood core. Metal laminates provide damp, accurate, unshakable performance, ideal for expert level all-mountain skis.
