Product Details
Flex
Great for any style or ability of rider, the K2 Happy Hour Snowboard is versatile and ready to ride anywhere on the mountain.
Shape
Flatline® (100% Flat) pioneered the flat base profile. Preloaded, stable and turn-ready, Flatline has a supremely balanced, smooth ride for both aspiring and accomplished riders.
Tweekend™ tweaks the tip and tail of K2 boards by extending the rocker curvature all the way out to the ends, giving you more surface area to press, float and land on.
Stabby Twin shape for improved lift line presence
Construction
The WH3 core uses three species of renewable wood with two strips of Honeykomb™ material between the bindings and the rails for optimal strength, reduced weight and enhanced dampening.
Triax/ICG10 glass laminate with diagonal layers stiffen the board torsionally for improved edge hold and increased stability for off axis landings.
Carbon Web™ I is designed specifically to enhance Baseline technology and brings the pop of carbon closer to your bindings for more energy in all your riding.
Additional Features
Ollie Bar™ solves your pop problems. This 100% carbon element lives in the center of the board and is molded in place, pre-loaded with camber
4000 Sintered is the fastest natural base material available. It’s exceptionally durable, absorbs more wax and retains it longer.

Terrain:
Freestyle, All-Mountain
More
Terrain
Freestyle Freestyle or park snowboards tend to be a bit shorter in length and love terrain parks, rails, jibs, trash cans, tree trunks, riding switch (non-dominant foot forward), wall rides and more. Freestyle boards often feature a true twin shape, and are typically selected by those looking to ride the terrain park. A more versatile variant of a freestyle board is the all-mountain freestyle, which combines the versatility of an all mountain snowboard with the playfulness of a freestyle snowboard. All-Mountain All-mountain snowboards are designed for exploring the whole mountain. They are your go-to for a snowboard that will do anything. They feel at home on groomers, powder, park runs and almost anything in between. The vast majority of snowboarders choose all-mountain boards for their great versatility. If you’re just getting started or unsure of exactly what you need, an all-mountain snowboard is a great choice.

Ability Level
Intermediate-Advanced Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.

Rocker Type:
Flat
More
Rocker Type
Flat A flat profile is just as you’d expect – flat from near the tip of the board to near the tail. This shape splits the difference between camber and rocker, with more forgiving turnability than a fully cambered board and more precise edging capability than a fully rockered one
