 Hi, I'm Steve from Alice Brigham and this is Elsa and we're here today to talk about the K2 Minebender ATi Alliance. So really good all-mountain free ride ski, depends how or of course you want to get into which category you put it into but we're going to talk to you a little bit about that in a minute. First of all, here's Andy from K2. So here we have the Minebender ATi Alliance from K2. It's our all-mountain free ride ski that's perfectly suits an advanced skier looking to take themselves over the whole mountain. So the key statistics about this ski, we're 88mm underneath the feet. It's perfect for going on and off-piece in a 50-50 kind of scenario. When the snow's light and fluffy, you can get a good amount of flow. If it's chopped up, there's enough power in the ski to kind of cut through it. But don't worry, when you're on a nice hard icy piece, you've also got a lot of grip from the Titanol laminates in the ski that will help you get down the slopes with ease. Inside the ski we have our Titanol YB, that gives you two forks out the front of the ski, full width metal in the foot and then a single strip out the tail. That means you get drive and grip out the front. You get lots of grip and power in the middle of the ski and out the tail, that single strip means you can release a turn and be more playful with the turn shape. Now the tester's feedback this week has been absolutely amazing. We won the ski of the year from Fourline last year for the overall category and we're hoping to do the same again for this year too. Okay so it's 88 underfoot and it sits right on the boundary of an all-mountain or a free ride ski. We're not going to kind of pick through the bones of that one. What we are going to do is tell you a little bit about how it skied. We got to skate up in Scotland so a lot of different snow conditions but we were really lucky because we did get quite a bit of fresh snow. So here's Elsa to tell you what she felt. So I really enjoyed being on this one. Again it's something that I've heard quite a lot about. It's very easy to get on with but you can definitely push it when you want to. I took it on some quite steep, had been powder started to get a little bit iced up stuff and it handled really nicely. When it did get a little bit softer it was perfectly easy to use. So it's a nice ski to get on with. It's fun, it's quite exciting. You can definitely get it on edge when you are on the piece as if you're traversing around the place but again it could be your piece of day ski as much as it could be your playing around in the powder ski. It's just that versatile. So okay, I was just going to say Versa Salza, a key word on this then. Anything you'd compare that to, things that are similar? It's similar to the black pearl but it does feel a little bit different. I'd say it maybe needs a little bit more of a push to get the most out of it than the black pearl does. The black pearl you can sit on a little bit more but this needed a bit more power. Makes sense for Zareen and this. You've got a teetownal y-beam on that. You don't have that metal in the black pearl. I think you're probably just feeling that a little bit on the ski but otherwise I guess they probably are fairly similar skis for sure. So we've got more information on this ski online. Check out the web pages or if you want to put something below just let us know if you've skied it or you do want to know anything extra. Otherwise, thanks for watching.
