The Kore 87 is the ultimate bridge between the front side and backside. 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 Kore’s phenomenal lightness. Head has 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 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 87 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 87 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!
