The read

The KORE X 90 is an advanced all-mountain ski built for varied terrain, from groomed runs to cut-up snow. Its 91mm waist sits slightly wider than the catalog cohort median, and a shorter-biased 14.9m radius favors quicker, nimble turns. Graphene and karuba wood construction with rocker-camber-rocker delivers a light, energetic feel that rewards an advanced skier seeking versatility without heavy metal damping.

Specs & what they mean

What the KORE X 90's numbers add up to, as a model — the three things that define how it skis.

Turn & shape

A 14.7-meter radius sits in the all-purpose range — turn shapes that shorten up or open out without committing to either; a moderate tip taper keeps turn entry easy while the shovel still engages.

Stability & dampness

Built without metal on a karuba wood core, it's lighter and livelier underfoot — easy to release from a turn and quick edge to edge. At 1,755 g it stays light and maneuverable.

Float & width

At 91 mm it's a balanced all-mountain width — real float for soft snow without giving up much hardpack quickness. Rocker at tip and tail lets it smear and release easily, while the camber underfoot keeps an edge.
