Kore 99 Skis

About the Head Kore 99

After considerable interest from fans of the 2018 Kore range, Head have now designed a further shape to sit in this series of hard charging all mountain freeride skis. The 2019 Kore 99 sits in the sweet-spot between the Kore 93 and 105 models. Built for off piste freeride, this ski loves being taken out of bounds, however the width still allows you to throw down carves when the pistes come calling.

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. Using a series of high performance material, including the exceptionally strong graphene, has allowed these skis to stay strong and light simultaneously. 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 gives the control needed to give confidence on pistes. All of the Kore skis feature the same construction, with there being a different width to suit every skier. The Kore 99 is the model for skiers who don’t want to be able to ride pistes without compromising in the powder. Riders with an interest in carving performance and speed may also be interested in the Kore 93 model.

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 to jump into the first powder you see, but in the meantime are happy with racking up miles on the piste, then these are the skis for you!
