The K2 Alliance Team: Created by women who roll

K2 Skate Alliance Team

K2 designs skates by women, for women. Established in 2001, the K2 T:Nine Alliance is a diverse group of women of various ages, abilities and backgrounds that are actively involved in designing our women's skate collection. Authentic to the core, the T:Nine Alliance drives skate development, testing, marketing and graphics and is committed to delivering the most authentic women's products available.

All K2 T:Nine Skates Feature:

  • * Women's anatomical foot lasts
  • * Sculpted cuff's
  • * Ergonomically designed powerstraps
  • * Overall lighter weight design

K2 donates a portion of all T:Nine skate sales to organizations committed to finding a cure for breast cancer. We proudly support The Breast Cancer Research Foundation and The Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation:

K2 Skate Alliance Team Members

K2 Alliance Member Trish Alexander
NAME: Trish Alexander
BORN: The US of A
BIRTH YEAR: Yeah right!

Trish Alexander keeps herself busy teaching at a small private high school and running Skate Journeys Skate School in Bellevue, Washington. She started ice skating at 12 years old and crossed over to Inline Skating in 1994 when she bought her first pair of K2 Skates. Trish told us that one of the reasons she loves inline skating is that it can be done in so many ways: Artistic, Marathon, Slalom, Urban and Vert, Indoor speed skating and just good old social skating with friends and Trish partakes in all of them!
