K2 completes their quiver of freestyle focused boards, with their 2008 Jibpan Snowboard. This stick offers unrelenting performance and energy with graphics inspired by K2’s Japanese pro team. Handling everything from kickers in the backcountry to those infamous snow dome rails, the Hyper Progressive Sidecut, Integrated S-Class Technology and Carbon Plus Torsion Forks warrant quick response, stable transition and powerful pop. The 2008 K2 Jibpan Snowboard is the ultimate high performance twin-tip jib stick.Hybritech Construction- Hybritech is the most effective way to make a snowboard. It takes a cap tip and tail and blends it into a sidewall along the running surface. K2 takes the time to create complex molds and parts that bring these two features together. It gives you low swing weight and optimized turn initiation at the ends combined with durability and damping on the running surface. This design produces high-performance boards that excel across any variety of mountain terrain, snow conditions and riding styles.
S-Class Technology- Taking full advantage of every moment you experience on snow, whether it's your first few turns or that last high-speed mission, S-Class technology is engineered to keep your legs at full potential for strong riding all day long. K2’s patent pending feature incorporates a vibration-absorbing layer, giving your muscles a well-deserved break from any and all board chatter. One more run anyone?
Multi Core - Two distinct wood species combined to create a core that gives the most natural damping without sacrificing strength and flex. The first wood is strong and snappy; the second is light, damp and durable.
Patented Torsion Fork Technology: Torsion forks provide directional stiffness and snap to maximize rider input and focus it for supreme performance. Forks are always used in pairs to provide a wide platform of stability, reducing board twist and washouts.
