K2 Parkstar 12/13

This year's K2 Parkstar has added onto what is an incredible all mountain freestyle board that performs all over the mountain. This board is not for the faint hearted as its 4000 sintered base and W2 core with carbon webbing makes for a super fast, reactive ride. The jib rocker shape and twin hyper progressive sidecut gives a high level of stability when riding straight and fast but it also makes it easy to initiate turns and play. The new tweekend provides a stable platform at the tip and tail for buttering, jibbing, landing big jumps, and floating in powder Features Jib Rocker base profile Hybritaper construction Twin shape w/centred stance Hyper Progressive sidecut W2 core Triax fibreglass w/ICG 10 Carbon Web I 4000 Sintered base Glossary Jib Rocker:80% Flat/20% Rocker w/just enough
rise in the tip and tail to create a loose, buttery feel on all terrain. Contact points stay well off the snow until engaged, eliminating edge hook while maintaining fun pop. Hybritaper construction:Features sidewalls along the running surface that flow into the nose and tail for low swing weight, optimized turn initiation and durability. Also tapers out the core at the tip and tail, and blends the tips into a thin sandwich removing excess material. Hyper Progressive sidecut:An infinite number of different radii are blended together flawlessly from mellow in the tips, to more aggressive in the centre. The result is a predictable feel that never hooks, response at high speeds and a smooth ride. W2 Core:3 species of renewable wood are used to optimize strength, reduce weight and
enhance damping. Triax fibreglass:A glass laminate w/diagonal layers that stiffen the board torsionally for improved edge hold and stability. ICG 10:Integrates carbon into the fibreglass to reduce weight and create a smooth release of power while increasing pop and liveliness. Carbon Web I:Brings the pop and snap of carbon closer to the bindings for maximum ollies and control. 4000 Sintered base:One of the fastest natural base materials available, it is exceptionally durable absorbs wax deeper and retains it longer. *Please note that base colours may vary
