best_freestyle_ski.jpgThe K2 MissConduct quite simply proved itself an awesome performer in the Park and Pipe category.

With its Aspen wood core the ski is very light underfoot and easy to turn and spin, allowing riders to rip and slide with minimal effort.

There is a generous amount of flex and rocker in the tip and tail to help initiate turns, while the MissConduct has the usual K2 tip and tail protectors that help prevent de-lamination and other critical damage caused by rider abuse.

Durability is also aided by the full sidewall, an extra expense that is great to see in a ski that costs just £250 without bindings, and is probably necessary given the propensity of 85 width skis to 'clack' together during Park runs.

That type of construction means the MissConduct holds a good edge on hardpack snow, while the ski also has excellent torsional rigidity thanks to interlocking fiberglass strands that are braided around the ski's wood core - an innovation that K2 is rightly proud of.

With a decent 118 shovel in the nose and some all-terrain rocker thrown in, the MissConduct could happily fill the role for someone looking for a fun all-round ski. But to really get the most out of them you need to hunt out those jumps and rails, you'll have a blast.
