K2 Rolling Stones SideStash Skis special edition - REVIEW

  • 2012-03-31 09:58:51

    K2 Rolling Stones SideStash Skis - special edition Two historic icons have come together to create a new ski called the K2 Rolling Stones SideStash Ski, this special edition ski is "50 years in the making" they say as it commemorates the birth of K2 in 1961 and the Rolling Stones in 1962. Marketing and top sheet design aside if you are not a fan of the Stones (not sure that is possible) you may very well still be a fan of these new skis. The top sheet design is a homage to the Rolling Stones and contains unique artifacts from the early days of the band including the original concert set list, lyrics and rare pictures of the band. Flip the ski over to the B side and you have the K2 logo and the classic Rolling Stones lips and tongue logo front and centre. The K2 Rolling Stones SideStash Skis is the second of four Rolling Stones tribute skis so there are lots to choose from should you decide you can't get no satisfaction. Enough about the graphic design though, lets talk ski design.
