The Luna is the complete package for every level of riding. Making sure the diverse riding styles of the K2 Alliance™ are met, we have taken everything we know about freestyle and freeride performance and blended them into the perfect package. Playful and confident anywhere you want to go, with Dual Progressive Sidecut for quick, effortless turns. Add the Rhythm Core and Kevlar Inlays, and the board brings plenty of pop while remaining light and maneuverable.
- GLASS TECHNOLOGY
- The story with GLASS TECHNOLOGY at K2 is simple. We do whatever we can to create the lightest, strongest and most responsive boards in the industry through the use of ICG (Integrated Carbon Glass), Biax (two weave) and Triax (three weave)
- Read our descriptions of each individual type of GLASS TECHNOLOGY below.
- BIAXIAL:
- Best performing all-purpose glass for that all around performance ride.
- Our team of engineers is involved in every part of production. From developing lighter, stronger construction technologies to 'field testing' - this crew is focused on two things only: making the industry's best product and HAVING FUN!
- JIB TIP:
- K2's JIB TIP design integrates a longer effective edge with shorter nose and tail, allowing you to drop down 5cm in board size without losing the stability of a longer board. Perfecting jibs, butters, flips and spins has never been easier!
- See all products that come with the JIB TIP listed below.
- HYBRITAPER:
- HYBRITAPER takes our current HYBRITECH CONSTRUCTION and tapers out the core at the tip and tail to reduce swing-weight. We blend the tips from a cap into a thin sandwich - removing material where you don't need it; improving performance where you do.
- See all products that come with the HYBRITAPER listed below.
- TRIAXIAL:
- Glass with a directional element that stiffens the board torsionally. Triaxial provides the best bet for improved edge hold and increased stability for those off-axis landings.
- ICG GLASS:
- LIGHTER, STRONGER, MORE RESPONSIVE
- SNOWBOARD HARSHMELLOW:
- Keeping You Riding Stronger and Longer
- A thin layer of Harshmellow synthetic polymer, designed to absorb high frequency vibrations associated with riding at high speeds.
- See all products that come with the SNOWBOARD HARSHMELLOW listed below.
- 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.
- CORES
- We believe wood provides the best all around performance of any material out there. All of our woods are renewable resources and our high-end cores come with performance enhancing materials.
- HONEYKOMB TECHNOLOGY:
- We use urethane skinned HONEYKOMB in our top-of-the-line cores. Simply stronger, lighter, and damper than the wood it replaces. We keep the tip-to-tail, rail-to-rail wood performance by inserting HONEYKOMB only on the lower surface of the core. You get all the benefits of HONEYKOMB partnered with the tried and true performance of wood.
- WH5:
- The WH5 Core is exclusive on the “Ø”, uniquely shaped for our new HYBRILIGHT Construction and maximizing our HONEYKOMB technology. This is the best performing and lightest weight core in the line...perhaps in the universe.
- See all products that come with the WH5 listed below.
- WH4:
- 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.
- See all products that come with the WH4 listed below.
- WH3:
- Using the same wood lay up as the W2 core, our WH3 adds two strips of HONEYKOMB material between the bindings and the rails.
- See all products that come with the WH3 listed below.
- WH2:
- Three species of renewable wood are assembled to optimize strength, reduce weight, and enhance damping without the addition of other materials.
- See all products that come with the WH2 listed below.
- W1:
- Our W1 core is characterized by a single species of pure wood with proven flex, durability, and snap. This is our standard core for entry to mid-level boards.
- See all products that come with the W1 listed below.
- WOMEN'S CORES:
- Since women are generally lighter and rely more on finesse than power, our women’s boards have a narrower waist width, fine tuned flex, more sidecut, slightly less camber, and custom designed women’s cores. The K2 formula has created the ultimate platform for female riders to take advantage of their skills on the snow in style.
- RHYTHYM WH4:
- The WH4 Bamboo Core maximizes absolutely every element of our cores. It’s engineered to maintain durability, yet be the most naturally light and lively women’s core period.
- See all products that come with the RHYTHYM WH4 listed below.
- RHYTHM WH3:
- Using the same wood lay up as the W2 core; Our Rhythm WH3 Core adds two strips of HONEYKOMB material between the bindings and the rails. Stronger and lighter with added dampening and torsional stiffness.
- See all products that come with the RHYTHM WH3 listed below.
- RHYTHM:
- The Rhythm core offers the same three wood combinations as our W2 core, but engineered and placed for easy turn initiation and lightweight characteristics specifically for women.
- See all products that come with the RHYTHM listed below.
- TORSION FORKS
- MATRIX I:
- Carbon has been extended to the very edge of the board for maximum power and pop combined with a fine-tuned edge hold and torsional stability.
- See all products that come with the MATRIX I listed below.
- MATRIX II:
- 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.
- See all products that come with the MATRIX II listed below.
- BASE TECH
- 0 Sintered:
- • Ultra thin, super conductive base
- • Lightweight, lower material usage
- See all products that come with the 0 Sintered listed below.
- 4000 Sintered:
- • Fastest natural base material available
- • Durable
- • Absorbs wax faster
- • Retains wax longer
- See all products that come with the 4000 Sintered listed below.
- 2000 Extruded:
- • Fast
- • Durable
- • Easy to repair
- • Easy to tune
CAMBER now comes in all shapes and sizes, from full POWDER ROCKER boards to traditional cambered performance boards. Simply calling a board ROCKER is like saying that a snowboard has sidecut – what, where, shape, and how much CAMBER defines what the board is designed for and where it will excel. At K2, all forms of CAMBER fall under our BASELINE TECHNOLOGY story, which helps easily define what the board is, who it’s for, and what it does. There are six forms of BASELINE TECHNOLOGY: NEW! CATCH FREE, traditional CAMBER, NEW! FLATLINE, JIB ROCKER, ALL TERRAIN ROCKER and POWDER ROCKER. Each BASELINE has a unique performance advantage targeted for a specific riding style and tailored to take every rider to the next level.
- CAMBER: Camber Range: 3mm to 8mm Camber
- CATCH FREE: Camber Range: 1mm+/12mm, 3mm Camber
- FLATLINE: Camber Range: 0mm/0mm
- JIB ROCKER: Rocker Range: 6-2mm/ 120-160mm
- ALL TERRAIN ROCKER: Rocker Range: 10-7mm/220-180mm
- POWDER ROCKER: Rocker Range: 13mm+/260mm+
