For a company thats been representing shred since the grassroots days of ah inspiring neon outerwear to new found revival of the Gyrator; K2 snowboards knows what the true meaning of snowboarding is all about. Fun! One word that has a home to us all, and defines those glorious days bearing the pain of lacing your boots in freezing temperatures only to await the sounding click of your bindings and the gliding slice of your snowboard as you rail your first turn. As much as K2 enjoys making quality snowboards, boots and bindings; the Trusnow team actively awaits the arrival of the new K2 product to share with you. Well, the season is just around the corner and the 2008 K2 Snowboard Product is here for the shredding! The latest and greatest tools to get your shred on.

The K2 Zeppelin Snowboard comes fully loaded with our New! Multi Superlight Core and New! Sintered 40% Carbon Base, making it faster and lighter than ever. This season’s K2 WWW snowboard took the already perfect jib board and made it even better. Our New! Hybritaper Tip and Tail reduces the swing weight even more for effortless spinning. The K2 Darkstar snowboard has been reshaped to be a true twin-tip with Hyper Progressive Sidecut and centered stance, giving you the versatility to progress in any situation.  The Gyrator combines legendary K2 performance with Rocker technology for those ready to go where no rider has gone before.  Effortless float replaces any and all leg burn while a slightly stiffer nose and tail increase pop and provide stability whether you’re dropping a pillow line or sticking a 60 foot tabletop.

The TWS Good Wood Test has been around for Ten years and has become an industry standard of some of the hottest picks for the year. If a range of experienced riders are giving them the seal of approval, you might want to check em out. More legit than ever. The tenth annual test took place in the perfectly-groomed Parklane Park at Breckenridge, Colorado. 45 Boards passed the test. Complete results are in the issue.

Transworld Snowboarding devised the Good Wood board test to help determine which freestyle board (or boards) perform the best. Now in its tenth year, the annual assessment has become the definitive board test in the biz. These results are worthy of your trust. They use more than two-dozen testers to put multiple boards from 25 brands through the rigors. They should call it “hard work,” but that sounds horribly pretentious. Sure, the days were long, and there was a lot of paperwork involved, but it’s a labor of love and one that every rider is happy to be a part of.
