Kore 88 Ti
Head Kore 88 Ti Skis
For 2026, Head reworked the Kore's formula, and the 88 Ti is where that shows up most clearly. This isn't the carbon-forward Kore of years past — it's something more grounded, built around a Karuba and beech wood core with two sheets of metal that bring genuine power and damping to a category usually chasing lightness alone.
That change in construction shows up on snow. It's a well-rounded all-mountain ski with strong performance and a light feel, competing with more established skis in its class while carving out its own identity as a lighter option with a shorter arc. Ample tip and tail taper and rocker pair with a strong directional shape, giving confidence-inspiring edge hold on firm snow while staying intuitive to turn — a ski built to feel composed rather than nervous.

A graphene layup keeps weight down without sacrificing the strength and performance the ski needs to hold up, while the updated Tip-Tail Rocker Profile runs a 55% camber bend underfoot, 25% camber in the tip for float, and 20% rocker in the tail for switch riding. A new Hybrid Top Surface adds real resistance to chips and scratches — the kind of detail that matters once a ski's seen a few seasons of edges and rock gardens.
Willi's Ski & Board + 2
East Coast skiers looking for precision, or West Coast skiers who like their skis on the narrower side, will find a lot to like here — a ski that goes from firm-groomer mornings to soft-afternoon bumps without asking you to think twice.
