K2 Skis & Equipment

K2

Striving for innovative solutions - for over 50 years K2 has been producing and developing ski equipment according to this motto. The aim of the American brand is to produce high-quality products that are durable. Through the development of fiberglass skis, the brand has made a name for itself in the winter sports sector.

In addition to skis, K2 also has several other products in its range.

High quality products

K2 was founded in Washington in 1962 and is named after the second highest mountain in the world, K2. The manufacturer is constantly working to expand the product range. In the winter sports sector, K2 currently produces skis, ski boots, snowboards, ski poles, bags and helmets. In addition, inline skates and mountain bikes are also part of the range.

K2 produces fibreglass skis that are particularly light.

Special technologies

As early as 1961, the brand developed and patented the first fibreglass skis. Fibreglass skis are lighter and can withstand higher loads than models made of wood or metal. Thanks to the special core, the skis are lighter in the middle, making them easy to control, but without losing stability. Whether you prefer the slopes, fun park or deep powder, K2 has the right ski for you. Ski racer Marilyn Cochran won the first World Cup on K2 fiberglass skis back in 1969, and since then the brand has sponsored numerous athletes around the globe.

K2 also has its own technology for helmets: the 360 K2 Dialed Fit System™. This system ensures maximum comfort and optimum fit, thus preventing pressure points. The size of the helmet is adjustable and an easy-to-use ventilation system completes the helmet technology.

K2 cares about sustainability in production.

K2 pays attention to sustainability

The issue of sustainability also plays a major role at K2. With the aim of producing durable products of high quality, K2 tries to reduce waste. In addition, the brand reduces the use of harmful chemicals and increases the number of recycled materials. The manufacturer also tries to reduce transport to a minimum.
