Don't know much about the K2, but my experience with the Enforcer 100 is that they're a little heavy and don't float worth a shit for how wide they are in the tip.

I had a similar dilemma preparing for my first season of touring and thought weight didn't matter that much. Turns out... it does, if you want to have a good time.

Also, frame bindings are not fun.

Cruzin with the Duke PTs…not doing crazy verticals mostly getting farther out gates of the resorts and lapping backcountry booters

I’d do the enforcer, the reck is too soft IMO for backcountry skiing.

Mount your touring bindings on the skis you want to ski down on. Don't get caught up on ski weight, if they are heavier you'll get stronger legs. Unless you're doing multiple day tours or hut trips it won't matter too much.

If you are rocking frames I’d stay away from the reckoner 102, I had em with Adrenaline’s and they were garbage downhill

Had shifts on my rekoner 112’s last season and used them a bunch for boot testing. Worked out well for me.
