Reckoner KF
K2
$950.00
The brainchild of Karl Fostvedt, the Reckoner KF 114 is K2’s latest pro model and unlike anything else on the market. While the Reckoner KF is an undeniably unique ski, it’s not just a niche tool for high-level pros like Crazy Karl. Designed for playful-minded advanced and expert skiers, it features a soft flex and a twin-tip shape that encourages you to send big booters, stomp deep landings (forward or switch) and shred the gnarliest lines with a playful touch.
Construction-wise, the Reckoner KF boasts an aspen wood core wrapped in K2’s Triaxial Braided fiberglass. What sets it apart is its full sheet of wall-to-wall, uni-directional carbon fiber; a K2 first. This addition boosts pop and rebound and is balanced by a sheet of unidirectional flax for improved damping.
Its 114-mm waist and freestyle-oriented shape might seem familiar, but the deep tip and tail rocker blended with slight underfoot camber sets it apart from other boards in its class. Flexwise, the Reckoner KF has a soft pattern, with the most notable stiffness concentrated directly underfoot. This softness extends to the tips and tails, resulting in a smooth transition between the stiff midsection and forgiving ends, a key component of its performance.
The Reckoner KF excels across a variety of conditions. Its soft flex and deep rocker lines provide ample float and maneuverability in powder. While in chop, the ski’s playful nature truly shines, inviting you to pop off every bump and slash leftover pow piles. When it comes to freestyle performance, the Reckoner KF is in a league of its own. Its easy-bending nature and trampoline-like pop make it a natural choice for creatively boosting everything on the hill.
Overall, the Reckoner KF is a surprisingly versatile ski that caters to a wide range of skiers. Whether you’re sending cliffs or slashing through powdery glades, it inspires confidence and stoke in equal measure. Channel your inner Crazy Karl and prepare for a ride like no other.
