Drawing mushroom graphics without eating mushrooms is some sort of hippy blasphemy. Can definitely confirm I did the opposite. :)

If they could do a shell that is between that vise grip classic, and the absolute bucket that is the evolution shell. Without a comically short cuff. I could be interested. And a tongue that goes to 11.

Or is this just a Dalbello?

K2 is fucking kicking ass, holy shit. I was kinda stoked when the Reckoner first dropped, but thought the graphics were meh, these new ones are fucking insane though, definitely getting old Hellbent vibes. So fucking hyped for these!

Yeah it's like the best of both worlds between the og Hellbent/Iron Maiden/Obsethed type graphics and the modern art type K2 graphics. Sick af
 
This! That’s a very accurate interpretation of what goes through our heads at K2. Pay attention to what some of the great K2 graphics were in the past while taking steps to push it forward. Gotta keep things moving but still be aware of where we came from.

Cheers to everyone who’s been posting and stoked on the new skis.

Can’t leak anything, but I’ve just seen the rest of next years stuff from K2, and it is fucking sick. The rest of the Reckoner line is badass, and the poacher/press/sight are fucking baller.
 
Word from the Dalbello rep is that a Lupo Pro HD that's even more downhill oriented is in the works. He said something about using the Krypton forward lean so it'll be a bit less upright. Not sure what this means for its touring performance...

FWIW, I've had 0 issue with the downhill performance of the HD and for that matter the uphill is damn good too for a burly shell.

We'll see...

Didn't ask. If he comes back by the shop I'll inquire. I doubt they'll stray from the current construction on that one or the rest of the Krypton series. Only reason I got a heads up about the HD change is I cracked the shell on mine and was getting warranty help from him.

In theory, increasing the forward lean shouldn't have any effect on the walk mode. Just need to change the length or position of the walk mode lever.

I have two friends who've added shims to the lip on the lower that the lever sits on to increase forward lean. Seems to work pretty well.

Did anyone else see that the Recon 120 on the bottom has a picture of 2 different color boots? If K2 pulls a switcheroo like that a la Salomon SPK I will be overjoyed

the next story on from this showed them a little, each piece of shell was a different colour. It was sick

As abt to post this. I think it's reckoner 112s in the left and 102 on the right
Click to expand...

Yep that is correct!! The 112s look 1000 times better in person too. I was riding with my homie yesterday who was on them and they’re just so gorgeous and badass

Hold up new tele boot? And I just bought a new pair of Tx Comps lmao.
Click to expand...
