With 88 mm under the boot, the Kendo delivers impressive carving performance thanks to the three different radii in the sidecut. These enable precise power transmission, uncompromising liveliness, and optimum turning behavior such as never before experienced with Titanal skis.
The Kendo 88 is also built with a Titanal frame and carbon tips, providing more stability and impressive damping.
As a result, the ski offers an extremely lively yet smooth ride, even at high speeds. A multilayer wood core framed by full sidewalls and with a P-Tex 2100 base rounds off the premium construction.

- Ultimately damp at higher speeds and holds its edge with authority even on ice and hardpacked snow
- Solid build has this ski holding up for multiple seasons regardless of how hard they are skied
Not ideal for
- At 88mm underfoot does not offer enough float for fresh powder days
- Extremely firm flex rating creates stability but sacrifices forgiveness and playfulness

Gary Neft owns this product
This is an excellent all-mountain ski for anyone in the Midwest or East who likes to ski groomers, trees, and moguls, and a more groomer-oriented ski for out west, it can handle speed with ease as it does not chatter, is very easy to turn in long GS or short slalom
Ideal for
- Skiing on any terrain except deep powder
- Skiing at speed, no chatter
- Short and long turns
Not ideal for
- Not great for deeper, softer snow
- They like to ski fast
- Might be heavier with metal from tip to tail

Kendo 88
Posted on Aug 29, 2023Enjoyable to ski in all terrain and conditions. Great on hard pack, bumps and soft snow. The shovel doesn't get hooked up to much in deeper and cut up snow. The 3D radius turning is actually is noticable if you are skilled enough to manipulate the Ski.

Excellent asset to any team
5 /5
I give my highest recommendation to Austin. He is very knowledgeable and does an excellent job of building rapport, asking the right questions, and quickly delivering. Some people have a gift for communication and interpersonal skills. He definitely has it. He will do very well. Any team would be lucky to have him as a member.

Kyle asked all the right questions and gave great answers to all of mine. Made a video explaining the gear he curated for me, and found replacements for sold out gear fast. It's a shame I found this site right before it dies, but I'm glad I found it at all.

I had been out of snowboarding since about covid and felt like a newbie again. Preston gathered my stats and sent me a video with recommendations and detailed his logic behind them. He was very easy to chat with, heard any feedback and responded quickly to all of my follow ups. Second to none. Thanks man!

Mediocre experience
2 /5
Had some knowledge but was very slow to respond and didn't come across as engaged. Asked a few questions I had answered in my initial bio survey thing. Overall seemed nice, just distant and disinterested in teaching me about snowboarding gear. The important thing was that he helped me pick out a (seemingly) great board.

5 /5
New to the world of snowboarding, and had no idea where to begin. Spencer was as solid as they come. He was patient, checked in as I navigated the last couple months determining if this was right for me. At the end of the day, I am super excited for my gear and get out there to learn this sport and explore New England more than I already do! Spencer is the bomb.

Mark was super helpful in giving me options to get gear to get my very own snowboard set up! He went beyond just sending me purchase suggestions that fit me but also sent some videos on how to get my board and boots set up 🤙🏼 He was super responsive and even through text you can tell he has an awesome personality

Friendly, kind and so helpful. Found my first new board fit for a beginner. Seperate from Brandon’s great service, we will see how the board works out for me when I receive it! Not necessarily any reflection on service or the company. Just depends on the board and it works out for me. Looking forward to getting out and giving it a go!

I can't say enough good things about Mark! As a complete beginner to snowboarding, I was feeling overwhelmed by all the gear choices, but he made the process so much easier. Mark took the time to understand my skill level, budget, and needs, recommending the perfect board, boots, and bindings without pushing unnecessary upgrades.
Not only was he knowledgeable, but also super patient and friendly, answering all my newbie questions and giving me great tips to start off right. Thanks to Mark, I feel confident and excited to hit the slopes! If you're new to snowboarding and need expert advice, I highly recommend him!

Ian is Awesome!

I pretty much started&ended my day browsing at Curated website and exchanging messages with Ian. I had a different choice in mind since the size i was looking for a specific snowboard is now longer available. Ive been snowboarding for about 15years now and I'm pretty picky with my gear. i was just gonna get bindings here and ended up getting both the bindings and snowboard! -Jay Y.
