What FullSend says about the Max K 106:
“Experience the flow with the Max K. This 106mm waisted, fully rockered ski is your paintbrush for the mountain. Effortless turns and playful maneuvers let you dance across the terrain, from carving trenches at Mach 10 to surfing through the trees. It's a two-sided coin: aggressive when you need it, surfy when you want it.
For those who prefer a more traditional feel, the Max K is also available in a cambered version. This design offers increased edge hold and pop, perfect for hardpack and groomers. Charge with confidence, lay down clean carves, and experience the thrill of precise control.
And for the ultimate in versatility and performance, the Max K can be customized with a swallowtail. Whether you choose the rockered or cambered version, the swallowtail adds enhanced powder performance for the ultimate ski. It's the perfect option for skiers who want it all. The Max K isn't just about getting down the hill; it's about painting your own line.”
