K2 Kung Fujas Skis 2010
Who Needs a Quiver of Skis Anymore When the K2 Kung Fujas Skis it All So Well
Pep Fujas wanted a ski to charge every type of terrain and he worked with K2 to develop a ski that was wide enough to float and endure lines in the backcountry, yet nimble and poppy enough to shred the park. He added a new 5/30 mini-rocker to the tip and tail to enhance it's performance in soft snow, and bi-directional taper for better switch carving. The result is one of only skis that is truly a quiver of one. Believe in the teachings of the Kung Fujas.

Good for park rats
The K2 Kung Fujas has plenty of POP, but hard to get on edge - too steep a sidecut.

Great ski to spin and flip.
K2 Kung Fujas is a good off piste ski. Great for park/sliding about the hill. Doesn't hold a great edge on piste.

Yes, the rocker specs are for the actual rocker, and there is a normal tip at the end. So there is 30cm distance wise or rocker with a total rise of 5mm, plus a normal tip at the end which from K2 is on the larger side of normal tips(unless labeled low profile like Disorderlys).
IMO, it is just sething-it. Seth pistols started out almost the same shape as Kung Fujas did in 09, then they added a small rocker, then width. I think they should have left Fujas like they were in 09(cambered), and if people wanted a ski with a mini rocker from K2 they should have just gotten Obsetheds.
