Augmented with a wider size selection, the versatile and performance-oriented as K2 Apache Raider Ski with M2 11.0 Ti Binding is an ideal choice for aggressive skiers who ski all sides of the mountain in equal proportions. That's because the Apache Raider has an all-mountain profile build on the proven Apache Recon chassis, so it offers the widest performance envelope in the Apache line without dumbing down the agility or lively feel. If you're looking for an intermediate ski that adapts to challenges better than the recreation skis with vibration-deadening cores, the Apache Raider is a practical step-up and a great platform for future learning on black diamond terrain, but it won't throw you on tough terrain. When mixing first tracks with established inbound runs, K2's Mod Technology dampens vibration and minimizes ski chatter at speed. K2 compares Mod Technology to shock absorbers in an off-road car. It's an "elastomeric secondary core" that's independent of the wood core that dampens vibrations without taking anything away from the overall ski flex. Combine this with the weighted Mod Monic on the ski and you'll find that the Raider offers excellent contact with the snow and crud, so you are more apt to initiate turns exactly where you need to most. K2 paired their Apache Raider with the Marker M2 11.0 Ti Binding for powerful carving potential that will please aggressive skiers without any of the unsettling chatter that sometimes rattles advancing intermediates. Unlike previous years, the Marker M2 binding series now has lightweight titanium refinements, making this one of the best values of the ski season.
