K2 Wayback 96 22/23 Touring Ski
Product description
Strapped up with T3 Technology – that’s metal-laden construction – the Wayback 96 offers uncompromised downhill capabilities in a super-light package.
Whether you’re on a multi-day hut trip or pushing out for a quick dawn patrol, the Wayback 96 offers the best stability-to-weight ratio on the market. Efficient on the way up, while still inspiring confidence on the way down.

K2 uses a variety of wood species in our cores to fine-tune the performance characteristics of each ski.
Paulownia is a lively, flexible wood with excellent strength-to-weight ratio.

Unidirectional carbon fiber integrated into the layups of the K2 Wayback and Talkback touring skis to keep them light and responsive.

Hydrophobic snow-shedding topsheet material that helps prevent snow buildup.

Titanal laminate specifically developed for the Wayback and Talkback collections to increase predictability, stability, and damping on lightweight touring ski constructions.

Gradual rise in the tip for great versatility in all conditions, with a low, short rise in the tail for added control in variable snow.
