The KD Xenon is a sassy blend of performance and stability, specifically designed and built for female skiers. The shallow rounder bevel and concave design allows for smooth transitions between turns without being too unstable. 

The Cobalt is made for the youngsters. 

KD have designed the ski off the stable mate the Redline with a fresh new mold.  It has a softer flex pattern and rounder bevels to accommodate the lighter weight skier.

The ski is a little narrower and incorporates a rounded tail, this allows it to sit deeper in the water and a more predictable turn and edge change.

They changed the deck profile and added some carbon to the forebody to help generate speed and performance.

The Cobalt will carry you through to the next level and beyond.

Seated on the top step, the Krypton Fusion has put the rest of the industry on notice! KD have proven its possible to make a tournament-oriented ski with all the trimmings without breaking the bank!

Incorporating a machined PVC aerocore that delivers instant transitions for skiers seeking results at 28-32mph, The Krypton 2.0 mold utilises the Titanium shape, only adding two tenths of an inch from the forebody through to the tail.

Wrapped in the perfect blend of spread tow carbon and glass fibres the Krypton Fusion delivers the most responsive ski for the skier looking for performance both in and out of the slalom course. Improving on the first iteration, the gen II Krypton features an elongated the flat spot under the bindings and its unique tip riser has been moved forward, minimising chatter providing a balanced ride regardless of technique.

The Krypton Carbon is the middle of the range model that features the best of all three Krpton skis rolled into a price point package that’s nearly impossible to beat! 

With its distinctive RCD top deck allowing a full Carbon and graphite top sheet, the Krypton Carbon delivers all the torsional rigidly and explosiveness of the Fusion, with specific fiberglass zones that allow skiers of all abilities to experience tighter radius turns and huge cross course speeds without the need for a perfect technique.

The Krypton Carbon uses a softer polyurethane foam core featured in the base model, its foam cells are denser, allowing the ski to ride deeper and require less effort to tighten up the skis natural turn radius. The blend of these two features makes the Carbon the most popular of the entire Krypton line-up.

KD have created a new mold for the Krypton models. Utilising the design features of their New Titanium. They have built a ski for the 30 to 34mph skiers, by adding a little width through the forebody to the tail. The Carbon version incorporates the PVC machined core and carbon composite lay up. The New Krypton is built to perform in and out of the slalom course.

Krypton is one of the rarest elements on the period table and the all-new KD Krypton is no exception.

Utilising the high weave fiberglass matting, lightweight resin and a denser polyurethane foam core, the Krypton is the ultimate weapon for the 30-34mph open water skier chasing a ski that coasts wide of the boat without bogging down.

Extra volume is gained from the widening of the forebody through to the tail allow the skiers to ski at slower speeds and improve at a rapid pace, while the reengineered tip riser step gives the Krypton a forgiving ride with a pronounced sweet spot that they can feel balanced on.

Whilst we use the shape and design characteristics of the Krypton, the Neon is specifically designed to accommodate the skiing style of the women.

With its distinctive RCD top deck allowing zones of carbon strips; the Neon delivers all the torsional rigidly and explosiveness but with a softer polyurethane foam celled core that allows the ski to ride deeper, requiring less effort to tighten up the skis natural radius.

The rounded bevels on the front section of the ski creates that predictable smooth feel, while the harder bevels and deeper concave under the bindings holds angle and cross course direction.

The upgdated KD Neon ticks all the right boxes for the intemediate to advanced skier that wants a ski that performs as good as it looks!

The all-new KD C-Six successfully bridges the gap between course & freeskiing, perfect for those waterways with less-than-ideal conditions.

The tried & tested tunnel base proves there is no need for complicated steps/rails that don’t allow the ski to edge, the C-Six provides a stable platform for maximum progression without breaking the bank.

There is a rising number of highly capable skiers who don’t require ‘widebody’ skis, but know the importance some extra width provides their deepwater starts and the C-Six fills this void, with it’s bevelled rails and hybrid tail ensuring that for skiers of all levels can comfortable lay down some of the tightest turns with effortless wake crossings that simply can’t be achieved on ‘Big Boy Skis’. Using the perfect blend of fiberglass and a PU foam cover, KD Sports have created a slalom ski that doesn’t require perfect technique to have the ski flex & release through the turn like a pro that’s had a lifetime of coaching.

Whether you’re aspiring to round all six boys in the course or only managing half a dozen days on the water, the KD C-Six is the ski for you!

The best-selling Radar ski. Radar pairs a polyurethane core with Paulownia wood stringers, wrap it carbon and push play. The result is incredible speed to the wakes, but with a softer more predictable ride through the turn. From the back waters to the buoys, glassy mornings to afternoon chop, the Senate Alloy is the perfect choice for any skier in the boat.

Where Radar adds surface area to the Senate series is the backbone to bridging ease of use, with flat-out performance. As opposed to simply scaling a Vapor wider we start with its active wet surface (the tunnel and edge bevels) and leave them relatively intact. From there they build surface area by adding a one tenth of an inch rail between the outer edge of the concave and the bevel. This small rail creates lift and support at slower speeds without sacrificing the ski’s roll, grip and drive through the wakes. This allows you to slow the boat, without slowing your ability to attack the water.

Suggested Speed: 30-34 MPH

The GT-R plays to the strengths of both old school and new school skiing styles. Coming into the buoy the tail of the ski rides deep through the turn, carrying lots of speed with tremendous grip. Coming out of the turn the geometries in the ski help bring the tail up higher in the water to ease the load from the rope as you prepare to accelerate across the wake. Chasing buoys at the highest level requires a finely tuned swerve stick that reacts in all the right places, which is why the GT-R is the ultimate slalom weapon.

With every year, we aim to deliver something fresh to the slalom ski market. Whether that’s building off of previous years’ technology or introducing innovative technology, we strive to meet your needs on the water.

This year, we decided to take it up a notch and bring you something bold and brand new.

Introducing, our latest high-end, competition ski for 2021, the DV8. Featuring patent pending VersaTail technology, this is the most customizable ski ever. 

Throughout the years, brands have been on a quest to create a ski that checks all the boxes. However, varying styles and skills have the one-shape-fits-all designs falling short.

What if you could choose the shape that best fits you? VersaTail allows you to take your fine tuning to another level. This patent pending technology gives skiers that ability to take a step beyond the standard fin and binding adjustments and choose how they want the water to flow off the tail of the ski. This is made possible through three tail options that come standard with the DV8.

The DV8 is also our most forgiving ski ever built. It’s constructed with an increased rocker, subtle top shape and softened flex pattern that all work in conjunction to allow more room for error and less perfection on the skier’s part.

The DV8 featuring our VersaTail technology is the first and only ski that gives you even more control over how your ski performs.

Connelly DV8 featuring VersaTail — the most customizable, high-performance ski ever.

Reinforcement rods are used to stiffen the ski for better slalom performance.
