OAC Skinbased KAR 149

The OAC Skinbased Kar is our most iconic trekking ski. Recently reinvented, it is now better than ever. While maintaining the spirit of its predecessor, the KAR 149 offers major improvements in nearly every aspect.

A new tip and tail design provide more float and better tracking, while the seamlessly integrated ABS base reinforcements increase durability in high-wear areas. A true all-arounder, the KAR will take you from casual afternoon tours to multiday expeditions with equal ease.

For the best Skinbased experience, we recommend pairing the KAR 149 with the EA 2.0 Universal Binding. Check out the complete ski set here.

Purpose: The most versatile ski in the Skinbased collection. Reliably handles a wide array of terrain, snow types, and adventures.
