The Story
Few names are as woven into American skiing as K2. Built on Vashon Island, Washington, these 1989 TR Comp skis came from the company that helped redefine what modern skis could be. Long before ski production moved overseas, K2 was building legendary skis in the Pacific Northwest using innovative fiberglass construction that made them lighter, more responsive, and perfectly at home in western snow.
The "Comp" name carries a rich legacy. Introduced in the 1970s, K2's Comp series helped establish the company as America's top ski manufacturer and earned a place beneath the boots of everyone from weekend powder chasers to Olympic racers. By the late 1980s, skis like these represented the next generation of that tradition—built for skiers who loved carving groomers, chasing storms, and squeezing every last run out of the day.
Every vintage ski has lived a life before finding its way here. The scratches, faded graphics, and well-earned character are all part of that story. Once illuminated with custom LED neon, those small imperfections naturally fade into the background, while the ski's iconic shape and bold graphics take center stage.
Whether it reminds you of your first pair of K2s, weekends at your favorite mountain, or simply an era when American-made skis ruled the slopes, this piece is ready for its next chapter—as illuminated mountain art built to keep the stoke alive long after the lifts stop spinning.
