The read

The K2 Blur XT is a piste-focused ski rated for advanced to expert skiers, built around a waist that sits wider than nearly all piste skis in the catalog. Its titanal H-beam layup and short-radius shape lean toward edge grip, stability, and precise arcs at speed rather than easy forgiveness. A tip rocker aids turn entry, making it a frontside carver that rewards committed, powerful skiing on groomed terrain.

Specs & what they mean

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

Turn & shape

A 14.9-meter radius covers versatile, all-purpose turn shapes; a generous tip taper keeps turn entry easy and the shovel quick to engage.

Stability & dampness

A full titanal layup gives it a damp, planted build that holds a line through rough snow and rewards a forward, driving stance. At 1,900 g there's real mass behind the metal to settle it at speed.

Float & width

At 83 mm it's an all-rounder leaning toward firm snow — enough width for soft conditions, still quick on edge. A cambered profile keeps it locked to the snow for grip rather than smear-and-release.
