The K2 Recon X 120 BOA is a modern alpine boot for skiers who want to combine high performance with a contemporary fit. As part of the brand new Recon series for the 26/27 season, it offers the same well-thought-out construction as other models in the series, but with a flex of 120, providing a perfect balance of power, precision, and responsiveness.
The new BOA® Fit System makes the fit easy and precise. Instead of traditional buckles over the foot, the BOA system evenly encloses the foot, resulting in better contact between the foot and the shell. Therefore, you get a more direct feel for the ski and better control in every turn.
With a last of 98 to 100 mm, the K2 Recon X 120 BOA offers a fit with a good balance of precision and comfort. At the same time, FastFit Instep makes it easier to put on and take off the boot, which is appreciated on cold mornings. If you want to know more about how to choose the right last and flex, we recommend our buying guide.
The fully heat-moldable shell allows for a more personalized fit. Additionally, the P4 liner provides an anatomical and comfortable feel right out of the box.
The shell is made of TPU to provide a smooth and progressive flex, while the cuff in PP contributes with low weight and quick response. The fixed spine construction along with a 4-degree ramp angle also provides a balanced position and efficient power transfer throughout the turn.
In short, the K2 Recon X 120 BOA is an excellent choice for advanced skiers who want modern BOA technology, high comfort, and a powerful flex that works equally well for fast carving turns and varied riding all over the mountain.
