Hello NS been out of the game for a minute but recently bought some k2 revival skis for super cheap ($75)

wasn’t skiing when these came out just wanted to know if they’re any good? The graphics are pretty dated to say the least but


I was just looking for something to fuck around with in the park and just have fun skiing again.

I have been looking for a pair for so long for the graphics alone. This era of K2 had the best graphics in the entire industry in my opinion. The skis themselves are a lot like other skis from the time, not as soft or lively as today’s twins. More heavy and damp for sure, but more durable too.

Cool thanks for the info, once I get to ride them next season i guess I’ll know pretty quick if they work for me, if not would be happy to pass them on. I’m in NYC area

You know we have to do it!

Also, $75 is a steal for these skis. This graphic is epic.

Those are ironically dope. 90 waist width isn’t like micro narrow either

They were not bad. Durable and stable.That era of K2 was known for feeling a bit dead though, not much pop.

Thanks everyone for your insight into these skis, got me hyped to take em out! Might have to make a trip to big snow at the New Jersey mall. If you see an old dude with skulls on their skis come say what up

I bought my brother a pair of these, I think I paid 100 but they were mounted. He is a full time snowboarder and asked me to find him a pair of skis to screw around on so that’s what I landed on- wood core, sidewall construction, little bit of rocker what else do you need
