A totally new ski to the K2 line, the Pontoon is the brain child of freeride legend Shane McConkey. As the name implies, this ski is designed for flotation but it is the innovative design that challenges the conventional thinking behind ski engineering making it the ultimate powder tool. With a surf inspired rocker built into the ski giving it a bowed up tip and tail, the ski rises to the surface in any condition while the pilot maintains a centered balance on the ski for maximum control. The shape of the ski is innovative too as it tapers down from tip to tail. A massive tip width of 160 combined with an equally impressive waist width of 130 ensures the tip will stay above the surface at all times. Although designed specifically for powder this ski incorporates sidecut into the design where you need it most, right under foot, for maneuverability on firmer conditions or just to get back to the lifts for a second lap. Simply put, the Pontoon planes.
