K2 Dispatch 101mm 175 2023 Skialpinové lyže

Playful, light and stable for demanding backcountry riding

The Dispatch 101 benefits from the same Titanal Hex Beam construction, Steadfast Base and unidirectional flax fibres as its wider teammates , but is designed for a playful, progressive riding style. This ski is light, stable and offers the necessary predictability and control for challenging backcountry terrain.

Riding style
A freeride/powder ski for advanced riders. Shape, design, profile and construction have been specially tuned to deliver the best performance in powder. Maximum uplift and manoeuvrability for deepest snow.

Shape
With the Directional shape the nose is slightly wider than the tail. The bindings and the sidecut are slightly set back towards the tail. This increases the stability at higher speeds and the uplift in powder. 

Profile
The All-Terrain Rocker profile consists of a camber under the binding, a rocker area in the nose and a slightly smaller rocker in the tail. This keeps the ski very manoeuvrable in all snow conditions. The small rocker in the tail and the camber under the binding offer you good edge hold and fast power transmission.

Construction
The HEX-Beam insert shifts mass away from the mounting point towards the tip and tail of the ski to increase swing weight and promote predictable turn initiation. This increases stability and tracking while maintaining power transmission. Uni-directional flax fibres run the entire length of the ski from tip to tail. This improves damping and saves weight for a stable and agile feel with low environmental impact. The Steadfast Base holds wax 9x longer than a high quality sintered base and requires 30 % less energy to manufacture. The improved wax adhesion prevents the skins from peeling the wax off the base.
