The Head Kore 105 is a remarkable light weight ski that crushes the terrain, I ride the 189cm and I can't tell you how quick and maneuverable this ski is in all conditions even high speeds. It can rip the groomers but also shred the outer areas! With ease. I also ride in the new Kore 1 boots that are equally as light weight as the ski which makes a great set up and comfortable, but very quick to react to big turns and cutting speed when you need to. I ski in Alaska and this ski set up is great!
