K2 Reckoner 102 112 122 Thread

[kc_7777]

Starting a thread for the K2 Reckoner line...102s, 112s and 122s.

These arrived today from Corbett’s. $449CDN was too good a deal to pass up for new 2021 K2 Reckoner 112’s. This will be my playful, maneuverable, versatile inbounds ski......for a few days after a dump. Will complement my 180cm R11s. Really glad I got the the Geoff McFetridge custom graphic too. Looks more sweet in person....and these have a good feel....the tip shape, early rise, flex, camber....these are gonna slarve/slash!

Rec mount is -5.5cm .... Got some new black STH 16’s for them too.

[SirVicSmasher]

Sweet looking sticks. I mounted on the line and am quite pleased. I'll post pics soon

Those look great. Next season can't come soon enough to get on mine. I'll likely fondle then daily until then. Also thinking of mounting black STH2.

112 everydayer
102 skiing with daughters
(wish they made this ski in 191)
122 PNW storm skiing and soft groomer side hits etc

1st gen topsheets
Really like this whole line
Especially the 112. Defeats the purpose of most other skis in my quiver.

Agree on those topsheets, really clean good looking graphics

He did, his Catamaran thread spawned this one. I think I got the last 184 from Corbett's and he got the last 177. They look good in pictures, but great in person. I think Evo and a few others may still have some in stock.

112

How much you weigh?

[kc_7777]

Re lengths.....like the K2 Catamarans/Marksmans I've owned, the K2 Reckoners measure a bit longer in stated length relative to other brands. ie the 177cm K2 Reckoner 112 measures pretty close in length to my “180cm” Elan Ripstick (which is really a 178cm) and is pretty close to my 179cm Enforcer Free 104, and my 180cm Rustler 11s. So in my mind it’s more like a 179cm Reckoner? Which for me at 5’7” (170cm) and 165 lbs is perfect.

SirVic is making me jealous with the full 3-pair set.

Man, I'll admit it, those 122's look good.

[sk8rat6587]

Yeah they measure much like ON3P and are every bit as much as their stated length. I have a feeling I'll also be looking at the 122 for deep days, but I'm interested to see how the 112 fares in deeper pow first. I've noticed Karl pretty much exclusively skis the 112 unless it's incredibly deep untouched (but I'm also nowhere near the skier he is)

I'm more of a 120+ dude.
112' more of a hardpack type ski for me

[SirVicSmasher]

235 currently but it's complicated.

He prefers the 112 because it's a better ski

122s on days with 20 inches overnight.
Great ski for the conditions.

To a degree yes. The 122 (for me) has some limitations when it gets cut up or variable. There are a handful of skiers at my hill that happen to be better than me and actually prefer the 122 even in shit fuck conditions however I can't ski full throttle when it gets really variable (alpental variable can be gnarly) .the 112 fits that bill nicely it doesn't bat an eye at shit snow . Hope that answers your question

I noticed that some of the NWAC guys were touring on the 102 this season, which makes sense since its a sub-2000g ski.
Anyone on here touring on these things?

I'll most likely be buying a pair shortly, and trying to figure out which binders to throw on there; pivots or tectons.

Ya I think the 112 is the one to own. Just been reading more on the Reckoners. The 122 seems a bit softer than the 112 and the 102 a bit less surfy than the 112/122.

For now I’m covered in the 102 range with Enforcer 104s/Ripstick Black Edition 96s. And with R11s, Dynastar Proto 118s and Icelantic Nomad 115s I don’t need a 122. But still want one.

See next year’s Reckoner top sheets....bit of a change from this years “clean” classic look...which I prefer.
Though the 122 with the mushroom is not bad?:

This is what came to mind with those new graphics:

Yeah definitely like this year's better. Both the regular and the McFetridge edition.

Yeah, it does! Thanks man.
122 is more dd range,so it would need to handle variable. I have fat skis for pow. I'm not quite as burly as you, but not small.
Alpental looks pretty badass! I think I would get along well w/ that place.

[jacob_dbu]

How does the 112 compare to a Wildcat 108 for instance?

I'm also real curious about the idea of stiffness and weight when it comes to skiing through variable. The WC108 are much stiffer than this (fondled both), but they weigh about the same.

Mixed bag spring conditions on the 112
Showcases some of its nimbleness and versatility of turn shapes in changing conditions. Gotta say my legs were burning at the bottom for sure .

The mushroom’s are actually the 102. Its the best out of the three imo. Not sure what they were thinking with the horse graphic.

I plan on getting the 102 for skiing with my 9 year old niece next season. 6’ 225 lbs hoping the 184 will hold up.
