K2 Anti Piste Telemark Ski: Product Review
What the TelemarkSki staff thinks... What the manufacturer's Marketing Dept. thinks... What independent testers think...
Summary - This super fatty offers maximum float in the deep stuff. As the name implies, the Anti Piste isn't designed for groomers or firm snow. Get it out in the powder though and it absolutely rips!
Inspired by the classic woody surf wagons of the 60's, the Anti-Piste is a snow surfers dream. With a 98mm wasit, you expect soft snow dominance and you won't be dissappointed. What's surprising is how much performance you'll get on the groomers as you go from one powder stash to the next.

20% hard snow / 80% soft snow

Mini-mod, XCP, 2x inserts
Backcountry magazine: "Don't get caught asleep at the wheel on the Anti Piste," one tester said. "These are like a race horse let loose in the wild. If you can manage the ride, you'll have a blast. "..."A hard charging ski not for the faint of heart or thigh. Not a tight woods noodler."

Powder magazine:
"Though it's intended primarily for soft snow, you'll still feel a bit of carve on hardpack thanks to an XCP tip."


Couloir magazine: "A speed freak of powder proportions, the Anti Piste destroyed the mountain. The heaviest ski of the test, the Anti Piste translated its mass into pure downhill momentum...Defying the notion that Super-Fat skis are powder boards only, the stout flex of the Anti Piste actually challenged a couple testers to keep the tips afloat in lighter snow, but they recognized that as the trade-off for all-mountain performance, firm edgehold, and take-no-prisoners descending."
