Good value for money and can charge hard
Not fitting the criteria of being good for entry level park skiers

Billed as entry level freestyle park skis, the K2 Press are certainly one of the least expensive models on our ski test in 2017. They are designed for 'emerging' park skiers, according to K2 and include an 'easy-to-ski Aspen wood core'.

Although they are a good ski for starting out in the park, they are a little hard to work and would suit a stronger skier who likes to charge full on into everything. Perhaps a contradiction for entry level skis, but we do like their pop and they are certainly good value for money.

Overall we think there's better park skis on the market but for the money they do the job and if you're an aggressive skier from the start then you'll benefit from the response they provide.
