Seba Kerckhof Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 I'm in the market for a new trick ski. I could get a demo model KD 12k lion trick ski saving me $300 over a quantum or d3 aira, but I really don't know much about this ski or know anyone that tried it. So does anybody here has experience with the ski and can compare it to the d3/quantum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ozski Posted June 17, 2019 Baller Share Posted June 17, 2019 Plenty of top skiers using the KD trick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skico Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Definitely comparable to any of them Great in hands and toes Suits a wide level of skier You won’t be disappointed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller auskier Posted June 17, 2019 Baller Share Posted June 17, 2019 I certainly would not call myself a 'tricker' by any stretch of the imagination and mostly just do it for a bit of fun here and there. I have had a 12k for a few years after having had a quantum for a number of seasons prior to that. For me, the 12k is faster for surface turns, more responsive and overall more enjoyable to ride.

Seba Kerckhof Posted June 17, 2019 Author Share Posted June 17, 2019 All right, thanks everyone. I'll pick up the KD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller gsm_peter Posted June 17, 2019 Baller Share Posted June 17, 2019 My trick buddy rides the KD and I the Quantum. Our experience is that the Quantum is a bit calmer and the KD faster/easier in surface rotations. Just beginners 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller andjules Posted June 18, 2019 Baller Share Posted June 18, 2019 This may seem way off topic (a comment from 2014 about the then-new Jobe trick ski). https://www.ballofspray.com/forum#/discussion/comment/151966 Except I'm pretty sure the Jobe trick = the KD trick (same mold, etc) and I'm not sure much has changed over the years.
