The Kore 105 is a men's freeride ski from Head. With a 105mm waist, it is very comfortable in powder but is more versatile than its big brothers, the Kore 117 and the Kore 111. The Kore range uses the most advanced technologies and materials on the market. The innovative construction that makes it so special continues to be a big hit: it combines carbon, Graphene and a Karuba wood core. As a result, these skis are robust, flexible and have plenty of pop! Its construction makes the Kore 105 the lightest freeride ski on the market and it is therefore very easy to handle on any slope.The Kore 105 is certainly light, but it is also robust, stable and agile; it is an extraordinary ski. The triaxial weave of its carbon fibre layer increases torsion resistance for unrivalled responsiveness and great edge hold.Its double rocker is streamlined with Graphene meaning the weight is redistributed across the whole ski, which improves float in powder and handling in changeable snow. Its Tip-Tail rocker with a shorter edge length also contributes to its great handling. Its lightweight Karuba wood core gives this ski all the elasticity and sturdiness it needs. The Kore 105 is perfect for experienced skiers who want to make the mountains their playground and do some heavy freeriding, but also want to spend time with family and friends in the resort.

Purchased as my powder ski, but found that really liked it as my go to ski for everyday use. Light, stable, great float in powder, and easy turning. I'm using the Tyrolia Attack binding, which is the easiest binding to get into.

The Kore 105 is a ski that performs well in a variety of snow conditions. With a waist width of 105mm and Head ski racing roots, it skis well on hardpack and in powder. If you are looking for a ski to handle hardpack and groomers exceptionally well, but have the flotation of a powder ski, this is it! I was really impressed at how stable it felt underfoot through different snow conditions and was able to carve at speed with confidence.

I have been using the Kore 105s as demos, and finally got around to buying a pair. Love how they handle in all mountain conditions (I'm a heavier person, so I need the width), and the price was great! #sweepstakes

I've been skiing 35yrs (I'm only 41) and these were my first NEW pair of skis. I always rented. This was like being born again. I got these in 177 (I'm 5'10 190lbs) and these bad boys want to go fast and turn hard. Highly recommend as your one ski quiver.
Nice ski. It has become my one quiver go to ski. It carves hard pack, handles chop like it's not even there and loves powder. I was worried the lack of weight would make it chatter but it doesn't. I have my switch bindings on them so I use them in and out of the resort.
These were a mid-season purchase so I have not skied them extensively; but, so far I can say they rip! I was coming from the K2 Hardside all-mountain/BC ski and the Head Kore is wider but also lighter. They plow through crud, but also carve better on piste and are responsive in moguls. I have not yet used them for backcountry, but put the Marker Duke 12 on and am stoked for this setup after previous Marker Baron frame binding. I am 5'9" 145 lbs advanced/expert skier and went with the 180 length.
These skis need to go fast. If you're just puttering along, prepare to fight for turns. If ripping through bumps is your thing, but you want stability at speed on groomers, I would suggest downsizing from what you might normally ski. My 189s are not friendly and forgiving in the bumps, and require deliberate turns and a lot of energy to get them powered up. They don't want to supply the rebound you expect from a snappier ski. That said, get them into bottomless pow, crud or slide chunder and you'll discover their purpose. I arrived at the rope-drop for opening day at Mary Jane (Winter Park's bumpier sister) and dove into untracked thigh-deep snow littered with crashed skiers unprepared for the requirements of bottomless conditions. The KOREs blasted through without ... MoreThese skis need to go fast. If you're just puttering along, prepare to fight for turns.

I arrived at the rope-drop for opening day at Mary Jane (Winter Park's bumpier sister) and dove into untracked thigh-deep snow littered with crashed skiers unprepared for the requirements of bottomless conditions. The KOREs blasted through without diving and let me ski reasonably centered.These aren't for intermediate skiers, but aggressive experts wanting a ski that will handle anything big mountains and the back country can dish out will love them.
I got a chance to demo these last year. I liked them so much I demoed them about 5 times and pre-ordered them this year from Evo.They are fast on the groomers. They hold an edge unlike any other ski at this width. The bust through the crud on those not so fun days and have good float in the pow. I am 5'11" and I ordered the 180 length, which is kind of small for me, but they ski a lot longer than you would think.If you are looking for a ski that can handle anything the resort and side-country can throw at you, this is your ski. The only limitation would be for those really really deep days with the 105 width at the waste.
The Head Kore 105 Skis have almost paradoxical characteristics; stiff and stable yet lightweight and easy to turn on a dime. At 105mm underfoot, these skis have enough width to hang on a pow day, but still maneuverable and fast enough edge to edge to be a blast on groomers. If you've skied (or read about) previous iterations of the Kore Series, rest assured that the 2023 version is virtually unchanged, with the exception of new and improved topsheet materials that are simply more durable and noticeably less chip/scratch prone.
These skis are snow TRACTORS. They will ride up over the POWDER or CRUD. Yet they are totally at home on the corduroy.
