The K2 Disruption 78C Women's ski is made for intermediate to advanced skiers looking for a quick, agile carving ski that can handle speed with stability, and isn't overly demanding of the skier. The Disruption is reinforced with Carbon down the length of the ski, greatly increasing stiffness and stability without the added weight of metal. The Disruption is intuitive to ski, and allows the skier to make quick, playful turns all over the hill.
Key Features:
- Aspen Wood Core – The core of the Disruption 78C is made from 100% Aspen wood. This consistency creates a smooth flex and plenty of energy and rebound through turns.
- Carbon I-Beam – K2 adds a long layer of carbon along the midline of the ski to increase torsional stiffness and stability at high speeds without adding much weight.
- Dark Matter Damping – A thin layer of polymer material is sandwiched between two layers of carbon and strategically placed along the skis edge. This Extra layer of polymer and carbon greatly reduces tip chatter, and further increases the Disruptions capabilities for high speeds.
- Powerwall – A thick layer of dense ABS material is added along the edges underfoot. This material is connected directly to the core of the ski resulting in greatly enhanced power transfer through the bindings to the skis and improved edge grip underfoot.

com. Welcome to our 2021 ski test videos. Today we're going to talk about the K2 Disruption 78 C. This ski probably won't get as much attention or highlight as some of the other Disruption skis, but it's a fantastic ski and would be a really, really good choice for a wide range of skiers

 So your ski's not bouncing and skipping around and losing contact with the snow surface, even just milliseconds at a time, which you might not see, but you can actually feel. And we also get powerwall sidewall in these skis too, so there's essentially just some extra material underfoot to make them a little bit more stable. There's more to stand on and push against, and it just gives them a really good feel underfoot. Now, by replacing the metal with carbon in these skis, they're lighter, they're less fatiguing, they're a little easier to ski

 So when you're coming out of a carving turn, it's got some nice pop and energy to help you get into the next carving turn. It might not have the power and the super strong, stable feel at speed as the skis with metal, but for a more intermediate skier or even like just an expert skier who doesn't feel like he needs to go 50, 60 miles an hour all over the place, the 78C is a really, really good choice. I have a lot of fun skiing these carbon versions of the Disruptions. I do feel the difference between the two and I wouldn't want to just open it up like crazy at super high speeds down a really steep, icy slope on the 78C, but I think I could and the ski would respond really well

 So we're going to use this visual aid here, which is actually an 82 TI, but the same concept holds true in the 78 C. We're just replacing metal with carbon. So wood core, and then we get carbon I-beam in this ski. So in the ski that I'm holding, this is titanal I-beam, but you can see where it goes and just in your mind, just replace the metal with carbon

2021 SkiEssentials.com Ski Test - K2 Disruption 78C - YouTube

 Hi, skiers. I'm Jeff from SkiEssentials.com. Welcome to our 2021 ski test videos. Today we're going to talk about the K2 Disruption 78 C.

 This ski probably won't get as much attention or highlight as some of the other Disruption skis, but it's a fantastic ski and would be a really, really good choice for a wide range of skiers.

 So let's talk about these skis. You know, the Disruption collection in general is designed for mostly frontside carving.

 You know, there is some all-mountain versatility worked in here once we start getting up into these 78s or wider skis, but the focus is frontside carving, is carving on groomed slopes.

 So if that's something that you want to do, these are fantastic skis for accomplishing that job.

 Now let's talk about the 78 C in particular. So camber underfoot, there's actually some nice rocker built into this ski too. It's not high-rise rocker. It's not, you know, super pronounced or like banana rocker like we see in some skis.

 So about where my hand is, some subtle, smooth tip rocker starts, and same thing in the tail, just some low-rise, subtle rocker, and then that's paired with that camber underfoot.

 Really no early taper in this ski, so you get nice, long, effective edge. You know, that's really important for a carving ski for edge grip.

 And construction of this ski, the 78 C, differs a little bit from some of the other skis in the sense that it uses carbon instead of metal.

 So we're going to use this visual aid here, which is actually an 82 TI, but the same concept holds true in the 78 C. We're just replacing metal with carbon.

 So wood core, and then we get carbon I-beam in this ski. So in the ski that I'm holding, this is titanal I-beam, but you can see where it goes and just in your mind, just replace the metal with carbon.

 So full width underfoot, in this ski full carbon underfoot, and then just in the center of the ski, in the tips and the tails, that's where the carbon is located, or in this ski, excuse me, that's where the metal is located.

 Now you also get their dark matter damping system, which is really cool, and there's really, you know, I would recommend reading more about this.

 We actually have some full length reviews and like full introduction series on the disruption skis, and you can read a lot about the engineering behind this.

 But there's essentially an oscillating polymer in there that sits in between two sheets of carbon to really apply some impressive vibration damping to this portion of the ski, essentially to just retain really good edge contact.

 So your ski's not bouncing and skipping around and losing contact with the snow surface, even just milliseconds at a time, which you might not see, but you can actually feel.

 And we also get powerwall sidewall in these skis too, so there's essentially just some extra material underfoot to make them a little bit more stable.

 There's more to stand on and push against, and it just gives them a really good feel underfoot.

 Now, by replacing the metal with carbon in these skis, they're lighter, they're less fatiguing, they're a little easier to ski.

 And this 78 in particular is a great choice for, you know, say a developing intermediate skier, probably a little much for a beginner still.

 If you're a true beginner or maybe you've only been skiing for a handful of trips or a couple of years, this is probably still a little bit much.

 But if you're an intermediate with relatively good technique, you don't have to be the world's best skier by any means.

 This is a really good ski if you're looking to kind of up your game on groomers and your carving technique.

 That carbon gives the ski a really good feel. It's strong, it's responsive, it's energetic, it responds really well to skier input.

 So when you're coming out of a carving turn, it's got some nice pop and energy to help you get into the next carving turn.

 It might not have the power and the super strong, stable feel at speed as the skis with metal,

 but for a more intermediate skier or even like just an expert skier who doesn't feel like he needs to go 50, 60 miles an hour all over the place,

 the 78C is a really, really good choice. I have a lot of fun skiing these carbon versions of the Disruptions.

 I do feel the difference between the two and I wouldn't want to just open it up like crazy at super high speeds down a really steep, icy slope on the 78C,

 but I think I could and the ski would respond really well.

 And then alternatively, they're actually kind of more fun on a more moderately pitched slope

 because it's a little easier to generate energy out of the ski when you're linking those carves.

 So certainly don't overlook it. You know, I think this is a great value.

 Don't just like in your mind, don't go straight to the most expensive Disruptions and overlook this one

 because I do think it's a great ski and a lot of people out there would like it.

 So yeah, that's the Disruption 78C. Great new Disruption line.

 I think there's kind of within that line, there's something for everybody, a little a ski that pretty much everybody out there could enjoy.

 And I think this hits a nice wide range of skiers too, I think.

 So yeah, let us know if you have any questions about it.

 Head on over to Ski Essentials if you want to read more about it.

 Thanks again to K2 for sending this visual aid.

 It's really helpful, I think, to explain to our audience what's going on in these skis.
