The most narrow of K2’s very serviceable all-mountain twin tip lineup, the Reckoner 92 is a refreshing example of the ski industry’s shifting emphasis towards making skis that are enjoyable at every skill level.
The Reckoner 92 delivers a playful, predictable ride while being among the most affordable all-mountain models on the market. Coupled with its availability in a slew of sizes, expect to see plenty of them at the resort this winter.
There are plenty of higher-performing skis out there, but you have to appreciate how much the Reckoner 92 can do, given their cost and rideability. There really aren’t many places on the mountain you can’t take advantage of the playfulness of these skis, whether you’re interested in groomers, exploring bumped-out tree runs, or honing your park skills.
Notable Features
Triaxial Braid: Fiberglass stringer runs through the length of the ski to add lateral rigidity, while allowing for the pop and play of a wood freestyle ski
