Re: Altai Tao
Very interesting, at 165cm I wonder what the glide is like with what looks like the standard Hok skin. My 145 Hoks can get some good speed on hardpack but are not the easiest to turn. Could this be the Hok that can carve? Inquiring minds want to know!

Re: Altai Tao
i'de like to try the KOM one of these days. not wild about glued in skins, i have fun skiing the hoks with my old doggo, he likes the wide tracks i leave behind for him to follow in
Re: Altai Tao
I also have KOMs on my list of things I want but can't have. Much more so than these. I do see a purpose for them though. They would pair nicely with mr48 skins to extend the spring season, provided they can carve Krummolz mentioned. They'd be good skis for trashing around in marginal spring conditions (slushy isothermal stuff)

Sorry, no additional info so far except for a ski profile. Nothing on their web page, just a Facebook post
