K2 Skis tapped into its legacy partnership with BOA to introduce new fit technology to alpine ski boots. The K2 Recon and Anthem BOA boots debut the BOA H+i1 system, providing skiers with precision fit and performance.
“K2 and BOA have an incredible partnership spanning more than two decades. We collaborated to introduce BOA to snowboard boots and have worked tirelessly to enhance boot fit across the snowsports industry ever since. Teaming up to pioneer BOA in alpine ski boots was a multi-year effort. This innovation has the potential to redefine future ski boot fit and performance,” said Tom Johnson, Director of Marketing, K2 Sports.
First to market and available now, K2’s all-mountain boots, the Recon 120 BOA and the women’s K2 Anthem 95 BOA, were redesigned to provide the best “wrap” and secure feel in a boot. With the BOA H+i1 system, the boots offer a tighter toe-seal and heel-hold by evenly distributing pressure across the foot. The dial and cable technology eliminates traditional boot fitting pain points and hotspots caused by over-tightened buckles.
The Recon and Anthem feature K2’s MultiFit last, ranging from 94mm to 104mm, canceling the need for both a low- and mid-volume fit.
A heat-moldable liner, integrated internal and external J-Bars and customizable heel inserts ensure a custom.
The K2 Mindbender BOA will be the first freeride ski boot with a BOA fit system, available for men and women this autumn. The Mindbender series features a tech-toe and walk-mode.
