LDC (Low Density Control) Technology is Rome’s wood laminate patterning where they place low-density Paulonia wood in low-stress areas of the core in order to reduce significant amounts of weight. The LDC tech keeps this core superlight, while Impact Plates fight against core compression.
Powered by the 30 degree off-axis fibers, this laminate delivers an easy-to-finesse freestyle feel for the larger riders and a rip-deep-ruts feel for lighter riders. Carbon in the centerline of the tip and tail increases ollie and nollie hight and adds pleasre to those powder slashes.
A stringer laid directly on ther centerline of the board from the inserts to the nose and tail adds ollie and nollie pop without adding any unwanted torsional stiffness.
Super fast sintered performance driven by the highest level of wax absorption in Rome’s base collection.
Smooth, equal pressure everywhere, creating the perfect balance of stability and versatility. Instantly get that broken in and comfortable feel with the brand new Pop and responsiveness of a brand new stick. K2′s Flatline is the most balanced ride for the aspiring and accomplished pro’s who need one board to do it all. Why did they make this one? The K2 pro team demanded it.
THE INDUSTRIES FIRST HIGH PERFORMANCE DAMPING SYSTEM LET’S YOU “RIDE S’MORE”.
Mellow the harshness of impacts and vibrations with K2′s Harshmellow Ultimate Dampening System. This unique elastomeric compound is tailored specifically for your snowboarding needs to decrease vibration, minimize impact, increase board feel, and maximize your potential. With Harshmellow added to specific K2 boards, boots, or bindings, each product works to individually dampen the jolts, jerks, and jabs the mountain throws at you. Integrate all the different layers of Harshmellow into a complete K2 board, boot and binding package to create the ultimate defense against all forms of vibrations from chatter to stomps.
SNOWBOARD HARSHMELLOW
A thin layer of Harshmellow synthetic polymer, designed to absorb high frequency vibrations associated with riding at high speeds.
BINDING HARSHMELLOW
A medium layer of Harshmellow synthetic polymer, designed to absorb low frequency vibrations and impact.
BOOT HARSHMELLOW
A thick layer of Harshmellow synthetic polymer, designed to absorb impact and shock associated with stomping landings.
K2’s newest innovation where the toe strap automatically closes and opens with the ankle strap. In short, one ratchet, two straps. With super lightweight performance and unbeatable speed, Auto technology hails a whole new generation of strap bindings.
How it works: An internal system connects the ankle and toe strap creating a one ratchet entry and exit. As you ratchet the ankle strap, the toe strap automatically tightens, and in unison, draws your boot snuggly into the binding. Releasing the ankle strap simultaneously releases the toe strap. Toe and ankle strap tension are independently customizable. The Set-and-Forget toe strap enables you to set the toe strap tension once and the system returns to that tension every time you strap in.
The K2 BoaCONDA System allows you to precisely control your liner’s ankle support and heel hold on-the-fly from the outside of the boot while your shell is fully laced.
The first time you try this, you will wonder how you ever rode without it.
How it works: The BoaCONDA minimized harness is securely built into the shell of the boot and tightens around the liner to lock your foot in position. Focus is on the superior ankle support and heel hold. The tension is adjusted using the Boa reel. The reel anchors the shell and liner together for perfect alignment and the knob stays securely locked in place while riding. The harness lace is threaded through the floating tongue lace guide, allowing the rider to customize the heel hold and fit for maximum comfort.
