Kore 117 Skis

About the Head Kore 117

Built for off-piste freeriding, Head's Kore 117 ski loves being taken out of bounds and is one of the lighter options in the all-mountain/freeride category, which not only makes it extremely easy to handle in the air but also makes it great for darting between trees and moguls.

The innovative construction is what leads to the Kore’s phenomenal lightness. Head have made the Kore from a combination of Graphene, Koroyd, and Karuba wood resulting in a ski that is unbelievably versatile. A series of high-performance materials, including the exceptionally strong graphene, has allowed these skis to stay both strong and light. This means strength at speed, but agility in bumps and powder. The perfect mix!

A tip and tail rise gives a freeride feel, but a camber zone underfoot and a split sidewall design give the control needed to give confidence on pistes. All of the Kore skis feature the same construction, with a different width to suit every skier. The Kore 117 is the model for more experienced skiers who don’t want to be able to ride pistes without compromising on the powder.

The combination of multiple new materials in the Kore series can be extremely mind-boggling. Put simply, the end result is a ski that blurs the boundaries of powerful yet playful all-mountain/freeride skis and touring skis. If you want a ski that is well suited to freeride but also excels in the park, then these are the skis for you!
