K2 Pettitor (2013)
Tester's Review
Fancy yourself a spinny, flippy, big-line skier? Then look to the Pettitor. Testers called it "sturdy," "playful," and "strong" all in the same breath. Like Sean Pettit, the man who inspired the ski, it thrives on air, speed, and powder often all at same time. More of a soft-snow specialist, it requires extra energy on hardpack, and testers dinged it on versatility. But it actually tracks nicely on corduroy once it's fully angulated.
PRICE (MSRP): $880.00
