Strengths:
Easy
Playful
Soft
Poppy
Weaknesses:
Cool up on edge. Lots of flutter in tips/tails
Nationally poor ice grip, but not unexpected
Uncertain durability
Summary:
Really fun skis for the majority of the mountain, the playfulness and softness of the tips/tails of the skis really invite creative skiing. Floats beyond expectation in the loose snow. The turning ability leaves a little to be desired, feels a bit sluggish in the turn initiation and not super stable on cuts but very fun in the right relationship when you can really bend the ski through and tighten the turns. The ski prefers to have a little softer snow on the piste to really dig into. The softness and lightness make them feel somewhat unstable at high speed and messy terrain.
I ride my pair almost entirely as dedicated park skis and would say they really belong there. Low weight overall and especially in the tips and tails make it easy to spin around, of course they are in the wider team to make lots of quick swaps and the softness of the ski doesn't really invite you to land wrong in bigger jumps. The rocker profile at the ends makes butters and smears incredibly easy, but the carbon in the ski still gives a good response back.
The biggest negative with k2 reckoners is probably the durability, my pair has already come off in the steel edge after 12 days and you can read many people who have delaminated skis in the edge and the coating on their recks. However, I think this is only a problem if you plan to ride a serious amount of park on them, otherwise for all mountain riding I wouldn't worry.
In summary, k2 reckoners are a really fun ski for many skiers, definitely best suited for the creative skier who wants to have fun on the whole mountain, throw some tricks in the park and then go out to play in the woods.

Strengths:
Light, playful and works all over the mountain.
Weaknesses:
None that I noticed
Summary:
Very playful skis all over the mountain. Easy to spin with, a 180 is completely "effortless" so to say it's insanely good in both park powder and piste. Had a lot of fun.

Strengths:
Light
Fun in the woods
Carves good for their width
Poppiga
Stable for its weight
Weaknesses:
Guess they're really bad on ice
They are not for those who only have to run express trains in giant slalom turns on a newly sloping black hill.
Summary:
Incredibly pleasantly surprised by these skis. Weighs 90 kg and is 189 cm and after reading some reviews I was afraid that I would fold the skis double when pressed. Works above expectations. Even on a hard piste, they have bitten decently. But they are most fun in soft snow when you just laze around or drive in the woods. Complements my Armada Tracer 108 perfectly.

Strengths:
Playful, soft & stiff / poppy, weight.
Weaknesses:
Not found any yet
Summary:
Was looking for a pair of skis for the whole mountain and destination. Didn't have to look long before I came across these. Really playful, soft and at the same time stiff / poppy when it comes and that job makes the carbon net excellent. Works just as well on a summit hike as in the park for the hard piste and in the powder. Awesome edge grip and compliance through the turn. Ride these with a Marker Duke Pt 12 and the combination makes these the only thing needed throughout the season.

About the ski: Twintip from K2 that works in both park and powder and everything in between. Light rocker in tip and tail and a relatively centered mounting point.
Olle: - Very good skiing! I'm actually surprised, I had no high expectations. They are soft in the tip and tail and feel very playful. But the ice grip is still really good. Worked in all kinds of turns, yes ... whatever I did they worked really well! Rating: 5.
Johan: - I don't really agree with Olle. Although I have no alpine background, I had a hard time getting into the corner and they felt slow from edge to edge. I mean, well, they felt good! Rating: 3.5.
Moa: - I'm surprised! Feels like a good almountain ski that is fun no matter what. It's still pretty icy on the slopes but the skis actually do really well. Ice grip is good throughout the turn and I really feel that I can trust the skis. Rating: 4.
Fredrik: - A very good alternative if you just want a ski that will work on all kinds of surfaces. They feel light and playful, but I had a hard time getting on edge sometimes ... but it is really tough, the conditions are not optimal for this ski. Rating: 4.
Average grade: 4.13
