HARSHMELLOW TECHNOLOGY
The industries first high performance damping system
Mellow the harshness of impacts and vibrations with the 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 incorporates a thin layer of Harshmellow synthetic polymer, designed to absorb high frequency vibrations associated with riding at high speeds is inserted on top of the core.
WH4 CORE TECH:
The WH4 Core maximizes absolutely every element of our core. With a greater
percentage of Honeykomb than the WH3 Core, it’s engineered to maintain
durability at minimal weight.
HYBRIlight SNOWBOARD Construction:
Innovated on the Ø last year, this construction features a thin, constant thickness
sidewall designed for maximum performance and minimal material usage. The
result is a lighter, more advanced snowboard with significantly less waste
produced in manufacturing. Better and greener, for all.
HYBRITAPER Tip
Hybritaper takes our Hybritech Construction, and tapers out the core at the tip
and tail to reduce the swing weight. K2 blends the tips from a cap into a thin
sandwich removing material where you don’t need it.
MATRIX II TORSION FORK CONSTRUCTION
Taking Matrix I‘s carbon performance and enhancing it with additional carbon
bracketing the center of the tip and tail = Unrivaled Ollie performance,
skateboard level pop and fine tuned edge control.
