K2 Passport Men’s All-Mountain Snowboard. Like any good exploratory mission, don’t forget to take your Passport with you — the key to accessing uncharted terrain. Built for the intermediate-to-expert level rider and shaped and sized to be unisex, the Passport is directional in every way but remains switch and fakie friendly. Slightly-wider-than-average waist width is met with 8mm of taper to ensure easy turning and float in deep snow. It’s complemented by an elongated rocker profile from the front insert pack, throughout the tip. A tighter sidecut radius in the tip and tail allows you to engage turns easily, while a longer radius between the feet makes the turn smooth and predictable progression. K2 has added a new blend of ICG 10 Triax fiberglass to the Passport, adding tip-to-tail snap with precise edge performance. This glass layup wraps their lightweight A1 core – which features three species of sustainably harvested timber, and all of it sits atop a fast and durable Sintered 4000 base. Sintered 4000 Base – Hard, fast, and durable, their Sintered Base material holds wax better than extruded materials increasing speed and glide. A1 Core – Sustainably harvested bamboo, aspen, and paulownia combine to deliver a snappy and responsive feel. ICG 10 Biax Glass – Integrating Carbon Fiber stringers that run the length of the board into their fiberglass increases the snap of the snowboard without adding unnecessary rigidity. HYBRITECH Construction – Backed by years of rigorous testing, Hybritech is the most eco-friendly, lightest, and most durable snowboard construction on the market. Removing all excess plastic material in the tip and tail and adding a 3D capped edge to increase the bond strength of the fiberglass, decreasing the swing weight of the board, and reducing thousands of pounds of plastic needed during the manufacturing process is what makes Hybritech so revolutionary. Boards with Hybritech will spin faster, maneuver easier, and last longer than any other boards on the market. Snowboard Type : All Mountain. Range : 160 to 179.
