The Fastplant has quickly become the park to podium freestyle ruler due to its Bambooyah Blend indestructible core paired with a playful Jib Rocker baseline. Now with more pop than previously thought possible with the addition of K2's incredible Ollie Bar, you gotta try it to believe it.
2011-2012 K2 Fastplant Snowboard Key Features:
Jib Rocker Technology - This versatile twin Rocker is built to dominate the park. Just enough rise in the tip and tail for a loose, buttery feel on all types of terrain. Contact points stay well off the snow until engaged - eliminating edge hook while maintaining fun pop.
Hybritaper Construction - Hybritaper takes K2’s Hybritech Construction and tapers out the core at the tip and tail to reduce the swing weight. By blending the tips from a cap into a thin sandwich, K2 was able to remove material where you don’t need it.
Bambooyah WH 4 Core - The Bambooyah core is a skate style horizontally laminated bamboo core that K2 challenges any rider to try and break. Bambooyah is combined with K2's WH4 core. With a greater percentage of Honeykomb than the WH3 Core, the WH4 core is engineered to maintain durability at a minimal weight. Honeykomb technology is simply stronger, lighter and damper than the wood it replaces. K2 maintains 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 without that tin can feel. Snowboards featuring the Bambooyah Core come with a 5 year warranty.
Carbon Web I - Designed specifically to enhance K2's Baseline Technology, this all new Carbon Web brings the pop and snap of carbon closer to your bindings for maximum ollies and control in every situation. Carbon Web is offered in two different levels of sensitivity, I or II.
Ollie Bar - The Ollie Bar is a totally new approach to adding pop to a snowboard. Built in place in a pre-loaded, cambered shape, this bar solves the concerns that rocker boards don't have the pop that camber boards have. Made with a secret lay up of carbon, Kevlar and glass layers, K2's Ollie Bar is positioned in the center of the board between the binding inserts. Strong ollies and pressing power doesn't come from the tail alone. The backbone center section is actually more critical for smooth even pressure.
Triax Fiberglass Lay Up - This glass laminate adds diagonal layers that stiffen the board torsionally, yielding improved edge hold and increased stability for those off-axis landings.
Integrated Carbon Glass 20 (ICG 20) - K2 has integrated carbon into the fiberglass reducing overall weight and creating a super smooth release of power while increasing pop and liveliness. Each level of ICG (10, 20 or 30) is tailored for the rider at hand and their performance needs.
Twin Hyper Progressive Sidecut - An infinite number of different radii are blended together flawlessly from mellow in the tips, to more aggressive in the center. The result is a super predictable feel that never hooks. Responsive at high speeds and smooth enough to butter your way from the peak to the park.
4000 Sintered Base - Featuring the fastest natural base material available, K2's 4000 Sintered base is exceptionally durable and absorbs wax deeper, retaining it longer.
