The K2 Omen 90 with Salomon Strive 14 GW Bindings is a new freestyle twin tip built to withstand the rigors of park, pipe, and rail slides. It offers impressive pop off lips and stability on deep landings, making it a great choice for tackling gaps and rails alike. We paired the 90 with the Strive 14 because of this binding’s well known reputation for safety, reliability, and ease of use. Featuring an LDN toe piece that optimizes contact and response, these bindings integrate seamlessly with boots and skis, allowing for a natural flex and balanced stance, making them the perfect choice to pair with this ski.

Why we like it:

The Omen 90's durability and strength are crucial as park skis are typically subjected to frequent impacts. This model stands out as a heavy hitter, designed to handle this use and abuse with ease.

Who it's for:

This ski is ideal for advanced to expert freestyle skiers who prioritize durability, strength, and stability, especially those who frequently compete in slopestyle events.

Highlights:

The K2 Omen 90 features an Aspen Micro Block core, which uses small aspen stringers to enhance composure and stability while providing a forgiving flex pattern for a balanced ride. Its Carbon Braided Core incorporates longitudinal carbon stringers woven into a Triaxial Braid, delivering additional pop and rebound for impressive amplitude off lips and jumps. The Carbon Boost technology, with longitudinal carbon stringers woven into the patented Triaxial Braid, ensures enhanced pop and rebound. TwinTech Sidewalls offer durability and edge grip while protecting against ski-to-ski impact damage. Additionally, the use of Bio-Resin adhesives reflects a commitment to a more environmentally friendly construction process. The Strive 14 GW, with its lightweight build and low-profile chassis, delivers a smooth and responsive ride all day long. It remains nimble in deep snow and light on your feet as the day progresses. The LDN Toe Pieces offer a low stand height, optimizing power transfer and improving the connection to your skis. The Automatic Toe Adaption feature effortlessly adjusts to GripWalk boots without the need for manual adjustments. Additionally, the Snow Scrapers on the toe pieces effectively remove snow and ice, ensuring a secure fit that enhances both safety and performance for direct power transmission

Things to consider:

While the Omen 90 excels in freestyle environments, it’s not built for carving on groomed runs. However, it does offer some adaptability for playful skiers who transition from summit to park.
