K2 Revival Skis 2011 |
The Revival is the park ski of choice for the K2 Factory Team Athletes. It's rock solid Twin Tech construction combined with the ABSorb Sidewalls makes this ski stable enough to rip any terrain forward or backwards. The ABSorb Sidewalls sandwich a layer of Urethane between the base edge and the Sidewalls making the Revival capable of handling the toughest of landings forward or switch. The all-new Jib Rocker and bi-directional taper makes the ski easier to maneuver for effortless presses and butters on a variety of features. The Revival is ready to kill it in the park and prove everyone you knew EXACTLY what you are talking about when you were boasting in the bar earlier.

Comments about K2 Revival Skis 2011:
I was not to sure of the length but got them anyways. They were in one word amazing, I took them up north to Okemo this last weekend. They had fresh powder and the skis just floated on top and even when I hit an occasional ice patch they just bit into the ice and I kept going. Im glad I went with these skis, I love my K2's!! P.s the Marker Squire bindings look killer I'd advise picking them up as well!

Comments about K2 Revival Skis 2011:
Me: 5-9, ~175 pounds, 30+ years experience, on 174cm Revivals.
I'm comfortable on all terrains and conditions and consider myself an "amateur expert", meaning I freely admit I'm not a pro but I know how to handle myself on the slopes. I wanted a pair of twin tip, all mountain skis because I like to mix it up quite a bit. I picked up a pair of Revivals when they went on 50% end of season clearance based on reviews and the recommendation of trusted locals. No demos beforehand, just a shot in the dark. I was concerned because K2 markets them as a park/powder ski and I'm not a park guy, but everyone claimed they would be great as an all-mountain choice. So I took the chance.
In one word: The Revivals are UNBELIEVABLE.
Nothing else I've skied comes close. It took me about an hour to figure out how they wanted to be controlled, and after that my universe exploded. Groomers, trees, deep powder, surface 180's and linked 360's, the Revivals do it all. I found myself successfully trying things I would have never even considered in the past, and I've owned some top-end, very expensive skis.
I'm out of superlatives to praise the Revivals. I'm simply blown away. My first day on them was like going back 30 years to when I first started having big success days on the slopes. The fun factor went up about 100X in one day solely because of the Revivals. I skied until my thighs were on fire and the resort shut off the lifts for the day and I still wanted more, more, more.
The one thing they didn't do well was hold an edge on sheer glare ice. But honestly, nothing really does.
I wouldn't have believed the performance unless I'd personally experienced it. If you're looking for an all-mountain, do-everything ski, you've found it. Buy the Revivals. You'll be awestruck just like me.
