K2 Supersmooth review 2014
PROSKILAB™ reviewers' comments
It also loses points for its lack of athletism. The K2 Supersmooth is nonetheless a good ski for beginners and intermediate skiers looking for a 'cool' ski. More technical or athletic skiers will probably prefer a different model.
Review: Pros
- The Supersmooth is... smooth. A gentle and manoeuvrable ski that's great for skidded turns and easy to manage. The ski gives an impression of lightness and great manoeuvrability. Beginners will love the impression it gives of flying over the surface of the snow.
Review: Cons
- The ski is less comfortable in skid turns due to its unbalanced support and a certain lack of grip. Despite its manoeuvrability, the ski loses marks for its lack of intuition in turn initiation.
