The K2 Poacher is a durable and stable park ski that is capable of ripping it up on groomers and anywhere outside of the park. This park oriented ski is good for skiers learning park, those who enjoy groomers and all mountain terrain, all the way up to advanced park riders and athletes competing in the X-Games and Olympics. Its versatile nature, camber underfoot, and carbon boost braid within the core make the Poacher a go-to weapon in the park for a wide array of park skiers. It will withstand park use, abuse, and the test of time on the mountain. Expect the Poacher to hold up extremely well compared to similar park skis on the market. On average, the poacher is a touch heavier than similar skis, but this gives the Poacher it's solid feel, stability at speed, and ability to take major impacts well time and time again inside or outside of the park. The K2 Poacher is a weapon like none other in the park and can rip up anything in its path.
Ideal for
- Durable, stiff and well built park ski that can withstand use and abuse in the park.
- Provides lots of pop, and stable landings and stability inside or outside of the park.
- Camber underfoot makes this ski versatile and fun to carve with around the mountain.
Not ideal for
- Stiff at first when breaking in the ski
- Should not be taken in deep powder
The K2 Poacher is known as one of the most durable park skis out there. The core of this ski keeps it stable, solid, stiff, and ready to attack what challenges are going to be thrown its way. Known best as a versatile park ski, the Poacher is at home in the air, terrain park, halfpipe, and all around the mountain.
Key Features:
- All Terrain Twin Rocker – Equal extended rise at the tip and tail prevents snagging when riding switch and allows for added versatility and control.
- Double Barrel Core – It combines a denser fir wood core around the edges for power and impact resistance and a lighter-weight aspen wood core in the center for a livelier and energetic feel.
- Twintech Sidewalls – The ski has durable sidewalls that are specifically built to make the top edges more resistant to ski impact damage.

Super sick skis, 1 issue
Originally posted at k2snow.com on May 11, 2018Definitely the best skis I ever had for park. Super poppy and reactive. Although I had an issue (and some of my friends with the same skis): The bindings were popping out of the skis easily, maybe a problem with the core or something, but I had to remount them a few times too much. :(

Amazing service!
5 /5
Vincent done did it again! Had a friend refer me and boy was it the best decision ever. Vincent was very knowledgeable and definitely catered to my needs. He didn’t send the most expensive bindings and hoped for the best. I told what I was looking for and delivered. Not one or two options but many options. I definitely recommend him as your expert!

5 /5
Kyle was extremely helpful and patient in guiding me through the shopping experience. He sent me multiple videos reviewing snowboards, boots, and bindings based on my needs. He was open to feedback and questions, and ensured that I made the best choice for my needs. I'd highly recommend Kyle for anyone looking for a friendly expert to guide them through buying their snow gear!

I had insomnia that night and found the Curated for the first time. I was curious about contacting an expert who turned out to be Andrew at 4 AM PST. I expected to get an answer a few hours later since it was in the middle of the night. I turned off my computer and went into bed he responded a few minutes later. Hopefully, I didn't wake him up, or maybe he's on EST time but either way, he's on his game.

5 /5
I had many questions, and after a few days we finally got stuff figured out. Throughout the whole process he was very helpful and knowledgeable which is defiantly better then going to facebook marketplace. I tried that, but the information from an expert just helps much more. I would defiantly recommend Ryan to other customers.

5 /5
I very much enjoyed working with Leo on my ski purchase. I had done some research on my own but had not settled on a particular ski. I came across Curated by accident and did not know I would be connected to a live person - and someone who is quite knowledgeable as well! Leo listened to what I was looking for and put together some recommendations personalized for me. I was able to review these on my own schedule and later discuss my questions with Leo to finalize my selection. I’ll definitely recommend Leo and Curated to friends and will be back for my next pair of skis!

Leo’s not a robot!
5 /5
I was super skeptical of this website at first I assumed the suggestions were just from an AI generated bot, but Leo is definitely a real human and a knowledgeable one at that! He knew the area i ski in maine and made suggestions based off my skill level and northeast conditions. Can’t wait to take my new gear out in a few months!

I wanted to talk about how happy I am with my experience here at Curated and with my expert Bernard. Bernard was very helpful and knowledgeable about the equipment I was looking for, and provided different ideas on how I can make my skiing experience even more enjoyable! Bernard really is an amazing Ski Expert and I will definitely buy new gear from him from now on! Thanks Bernard!

Having some experience snowboarding but never owning my own equipment, I had lots of questions and needed a lot of help. I’m so glad I found curated and Josh! He was able to educate me and guide me through the process…and made sure I got a super deal. He always responded promptly and was patient with my never ending questions. All the gear is perfect, we can’t wait to hit the mountain!
