Model Year: 2011-2012

With a new Marker K2/ERS binding weighing a whopping one pound lighter than the previous binding, these skis were made to set the hills ablaze with glory. This hard-snow carving tool will make turns more precise, give you a more stable edge-hold, and the sidewall/cap construction gives you unparalleled accuracy. Melt the snow as you ski laps, with the Speed Rocker's metal laminate construction dampening impact and imbuing you with heaven-sent accuracy and speed.

Speed Rocker™
Designed for firm snow. This slightly elevated tip and increased tip length provide effortless initiation and flawless transitions between turns, while camber along the rest of the running surface delivers the most precision, power, and edge-hold of any Rocker category.

Women’s-Specific Mod Monic
Although the location for this targeted mass dampening is consistent between our men’s and women’s models, the amount of focused mass is reduced in our women’s version. The women’s Mod Monic is designed to accent the overall look without sacrificing function.

Women’s-Specific Mod Structure
The optimum location and thickness of mass differs from men to women. The aesthetic look of the Mod shape has also been customized with a svelte and more stylized appearance that graphically ties into the design of the skis.

Bioflex Cores
All K2 women’s skis use a combination of Aspen, Paulownia and Bamboo in a unique core known as BioFlex, a process where a dense Aspen core underfoot is fused with lightweight Paulownia at the tip and tail to reduce swing-weight.  For 2011/12, we have developed three variations of the Bioflex core specifically tuned to a target performance:

Bioflex 1 – 60% Aspen and 40% Paulownia – Swing weight reduction with added forgiveness
Bioflex 2 – 70% Aspen and 30% Paulownia – Reduced swing weight with added performance
Bioflex 3 – 80% Aspen and 20% Paulownia – Increased performance, strength, and durability

Hybritech
Hybritech is a unique blend of sidewall and cap constructions. The construction combines the accuracy and power performance of sidewall underfoot with the lightweight characteristics and smooth turn initiation of cap construction.

Marker K2/ERS System
High-Performance Women’s-Specific System
The Marker K2/ERS (Energy Response System) is used exclusively on the Super Model skis. The integrated hubs are closer together from toe to heel to accommodate a smaller boot sole and maintain smooth flexing of the ski. The women’s-specific binding features a Triple-Pivot Comfort Toe and Twin Cam 2 Heel. The Marker K2/ERS system is a full pound lighter than the previous binding system.

Marker K2/ER3 System
Women’s-Specific Performance System
The all-new Marker K2/ER3 (Energy Response Plate) is designed for advanced and recreational skiers alike. The ER3 is also shorter and less stiff than the men’s system, allowing the ski flex to be smoother and reducing the weight by more than a half pound. This system utilizes a new 20% lighter Compact Toe and a fixed Compact2 Heel design to generate more power, precision and quickness underfoot.

Integrated Hub Technology
Most precise transmission of power on wider skis
Titanal hubs are imbedded into the core of the ski for most direct transmission of power. The system hubs are functionally wider with a 50mm footprint, which decreases the distance between the binding and the edge of the ski for added performance.
