Has anybody else here skied the new Super Fats by K2 and why is nobody else talking about them on this site? They rock the super deep like nobodies business and they are the coolest looking skis on the market with their black and silver Iron Maiden Eddy top sheets. I skied them at Squaw this week in the 5 feet we just got and it was SICK.

I've only had about 5-6 days in my life that I wished I had those skis... and did I ever wish I had the Kahunas (or now the Made'ns)

Unfortunately it wouldn't be worth it for me (as well as 95% of the people on NS). As I have just enough money to maintain one pair of skis.

It could be a little more feasible in the future when you can have one pair of bindings and 2 or three pairs of skis. But until then, nope.

And that's why there isn't much talk about them.

yea your right about the whole portable/transferrable binding thing. whatever happened to LINE making that binding where you can keep its settings and interchange it between skis. they have shit about it on their website, but it hasn't really come to life has it?

I've skiied the madiens at the Utah intermountain demo day for shops I loved them but I wouldn't buy them because out a season you only get if you lucky two days where you would need that ski unless you lived in Ak. Also with the line bindings They are going into production in may and will be ready for next season. They are so sick, they made so many improvements. And they are pretty durable.

hey kaf where did you buy yours? I collect skis instead of driving a nice car so money isnt the problem here its hookup. I think i have my priorities straight cuz on those 2 days i'm gonna go huge on those bad boys. I live in Cali and i'd ski those things more than 2 days a year. Shit they weren't bad in the 1 foot at Squaw last tuesday but i tell you the five feet by thursday was insane.

i get to try the maidens tomorrow, looking forward to it








A homophobe once told me that skiing on parabolics is like getting a blowjob from a gay guy, it feels good until you look down.

That's why I like my reactors, getting some pollards and I don't even need to get new bindings, straight swap.

Those Maiden's look so sweet! *drools*

I ski my Kahuna's almost every day in Vail and it rips. THe ski just stomps landings, you can go mach schnell and it is so stable. I also have a Maiden in a 179cm and B-Hulick (6ft 2) has been skiing it in east vail and I hav seen him drop 30 footers no prob, do about 60 mph no prob. all I can say its the bomb...buy a pair.

Malay would do it.

Some of you are still stuck in the past like people not accepting mid-fats and shaped skis back in the day. The Made'N is not simply a powder ski you use two days a year. I have been skiing it for two weeks and I haven't even put anything else on. They've handled steep and snowless chutes in Whistler, the powder we nailed at Crystal, the high speed groomers and fields of moguls and the park. So basically they rip. I hope you have the chance to experience the ride they give you. If a ski is rigid torsionally, it doesn't matter how wide it is, it will handle hard snow. Anyway, open your minds, give it a chance, everything is getting wider.

Can you crave on hardpack with those skis?

Let's face it, no one posts anything serious on NS, and even if I wanted to, it would be answered by some not-so-clever variation of the following:
'You're gay', 'you suck', 'I fucked your mom last night', 'Eat shit', 'fuck you', or my favourite, 'I'm a better skier than you'. Jib_This

I think I might just have to get those instead of the Pistols.

137/108/127 - 189cm

They'll be available in 179cm too (unlike the Kahuna), so I've heard. If anything they should have added a 199cm!
