Information on K2 Omni Skis

The Seattle sports company K-2 produces K2 Omni Skis. The company has continually remained on the cutting edge of ski technology, regularly improving its skis by making them lighter and increasingly maneuverable.

  1. Users

    • The company classifies the K2 Omni as a beginner/intermediate ski. The skis have a generous sidecut and waist width, which gives the wearer greater maneuverability than more advanced skis.

    Terrain

    • The K2 Omni is best suited for groomed slopes rather than rocky or bumpy runs. Still, users will find the Omni to be quite maneuverable, as implied by its 16-meter rotational radius.

    Construction

    • The K2 Omni employs the brand's patented Triaxial Braiding. K2 claims that this allows for increased core strength without the risk of cracking or snapping, while maintaining the flex and spryness of an older wood core ski.

    Style

    • While you should never purchase skis for their appearance, the Omni K2s are undeniably attractive. They come in two patterns. The first features a subtle gray-on-gray pattern, while a flashier red and white design also has some flash.

    Additional Equipment

    • The K2 Omnis come with Omni M900 bindings, which secure your ski boot on top of the skis. Proper equipment such as a helmet, pads, goggles and poles should, of course, also accompany the Omnis.
