2026 Head Kore 94 Ti

When it comes to pure all-mountain versatility, it’s tough to beat a ski in the mid-90's in terms of shape. Then add a sturdy yet energetic wood core and two sheets of metal to the mix and you’re dancing. The 2026 Head Kore 94 Ti is a prime example of a traditional and directional ski that carves great, works well off-trail, and is generally easy and fun to use despite its high-performance ceiling. This ski works great in various conditions and terrain for multiple levels. While the two sheets of metal make it strong and stable enough for aggressive expert skiing, it’s still light and mobile enough to be fun and not too demanding for intermediates. It’s an easy-turning ski that has a very natural feel to it. It’s intuitive and fun and will simply go where you point it with minimal complaints.

Built with a blend of karuba and beech in the wood core, the Kore 94 Ti has an interesting mix of attributes. The peppy and light karuba play against the sturdy and damp beech to create a versatile feel. Head then adds two sheets of titanal to the mix to further dampen and power the ski. The metal doesn’t go fully into the tips and tails, lightening the swing weight while keeping the ski grounded and smooth in the mid-body. We also get a graphene strip in the ski, further energizing the feel and providing light weight rebound. The topsheet consists of flax which gives it a high-quality finish that is adverse to scratching and chipping while also delivering another damping layer for a quiet ride. Mark MacDonald notes that “This was an amazing all-around east coast ski. This ski can do it all in any terrain and is best for multiple levels, from intermediate to expert.”

The Kore 94 utilizes measurements of 131/94/116 in the 177 cm length to generate a 16.3-meter turn radius. It’s easy to find that radius because the ski isn’t too stiff. In addition, there’s a decent amount of early taper, making the ski feel like it has added agility and mobility in tighter spaces like bumps and trees. This is an exceptional tree ski and does great in the bumps because it’s got a lighter swing weight and a sturdy feel. Tester Bob St.Pierre notes that “I had a lot of fun on these skis, especially in the trees. We actually skied them on a good powder day and while they left a bit to be desired on the upper mountain’s deeper snow, the mid and lower mountain was awesome with about 4 inches of fresh. These skis are so quick and easy to ski in the woods and bumps but then rip carved turns on groomers—great attributes for a pure all-mountain ski.”

It’s the mix of strengths that make the Kore 94 Ti such a formidable ski in this range. You really don’t have to think too hard about skiing this ski as it does a lot of work for you. It totally takes the guesswork out, providing strong and smooth behavioral characteristics in a wide variety of conditions and terrain. Additionally, it offers something to like for a huge number of skiers, ranging from intermediate to expert levels. This is an all-encompassing ski with wide-ranging implications.
