When skiing the 183 K2 Piste Pipe inbounds, found that the ski adapts very easily to different conditions. The Piste Pipe cuts you slack when you roll into boilerplate from the fluff. The ski responds great edge-to-edge, rolls smoothly, and it would work very well as a work ski for Patrol or Mountain Operations people. Twin tips make intro to backwards skiing fun and make finishing the turn in crusty crap snow a bit more forgiving than the flat tail of a typical ski. Found that the twin-tip also finishes cleaner than a non-twin-tip ski in steep terrain. This mid-fat ski is now my ultimate favorite tele-ski. I drive it with G3 Targa T/9 bindings—great combo. Thanks K2! These skis ROCK! Tele-skiers have an all around ski with incredible versatility. -Craig in Nederland

The Keen Truckee Hiking Shoe has proven to be a good fit for approach, slippery terrain and for overall daily use. These shoes work great from high-intensity activity to simply getting around town. The liners help the shoe to be comfortable on the arch, and good looking to boot.

decent pants with great sewing pattern, would be better if made in a double-front, but its a comfortable pair of pants suited for bouldering and buildering
