For intermediate to advanced ski boarders, the K2 Fatty snowblades will be a perfect fit. Glide along in these 88cm snowblades by K2. For adult snow bladers, the Fatty snowblades are designed with a wider chassis, great for improved flotation on softer snow. They are also narrow enough for better performance on hard snow. These snowblades are also a great teaching tool for aspiring carvers or a new ski alternative for a more advanced ski boarder. The possibilities are vast and these blades are great! The K2 Fatty 88 snowblades are equipped with mounted non-releasable bindings. The bindings also fit regular ski boots and hard-shell snowboard boots.


Skill Range:    


  • Width: 111/85/99 mm

              I would love them even more if they were about 10 cm longer.

              Excellent find, cheapest price around and for me blades are much more fun than skis. Much more freedom. Only problem is because of the length they are less flexible. Also because they are so short it can make it interesting when locking them up when you go inside for lunch or whatever.

                    Overall, the blades are great, especially if you are transitioning from hockey. The non-release bindings are not great and can be hard to get on when you're first strapping on the skis. Other than that, a great investment for those learning to ski or more experienced skiiers.

                    Comments about K2 Fatty 88 Ski Boards 2013:

                    I actually didn't get to use them [...]. However, I have 26 years of experience and can tell a lot by feeling out a product. These are good deals, especially for the price. The only downside is that the plastic bindings are not very strong. If you ski aggressively (e.g. Jumping & hard landing all the time), I have a feeling that those bindings may give out at some point. Otherwise, they should do just fine.

                      Are these any good in deep powder?

                        At only 88mm underfoot, the K2 Fatty's are not going to be a good selection for deep powder conditions. I would recommend it for more groomed trails and park use as you simply won't get enough surface contact for them to provide floating power.

                    • Q:

                      I am headed out to Colorado for skiing. Are these ok to be used in the deep powder bowls and glades that are common out there? My level is advanced, but I am afraid they might not be long enough to cut through the powder.

                      Can you put standard ski bindings on these?

                        A:

                        You can potentially mount regular Ski bindings to any ski boards, including the K2 Fatty 88's, however this means removing the non-release bindings that come pre-mounted to it first.

                        The K2 Fatty 88 ski boards will indeed come with standard non-release bindings.
