Construction and Core
Bambooyah™ Blend WH4 Core that pulls every trick for K2’s bag of core tech it’s engineered to maintain durability at minimal weight.
Carbon Web™ stringers bring the pop and snap of carbon closer to your bindings for maximum ollies and control in every situation.

      Comments about K2 Slayblade Snowboard 2012:

      Nothing but good things to say...this board allows me to go wherever I want on the mountain and at any speed. It's a rocket ship on the black diamonds but holds steady on bumps and lands effortlessly off jumps of all sizes..I don't hit jobs or rails much but I'm sure it's be fine there too. Love this board for all terrain, all kinds of snow and highly reccomend for any rider who wants their board to be lightweight, responsive, stable and fast as hell!!

        This board is a dream. Rode it hard for 3 straight days, and the responsiveness and pop were unmatched. Even as someone who gets out 2-3 times/year, this board is great. Highly recommended

          Replaced a stolen board for this season. Pleasantly surprised after a couple days in the bumps!! Very maneuverable floats and carves well.

            Comments about K2 Slayblade Snowboard 2012:

            I use this board to charge down the mountain an see how fast I can go. It's a very stiff board that is very responsive. It's quite a blast being able to bomb down a mountain without hearing that board chatter from hitting small bumps. It's a very reassuring feeling too knowing your board can handle it. It's not too forgiving on the park though as expected, so don't go buying this hoping to ride the park much. Have a different board for that.

                  Great board, excellent edge hold on steep icy snow, great feel but also dampens the chatter. Highly recommend.

                    This is an awesome board. My buddy has had it for a couple of yrs and I tried it out last season. Great all mountain board...carves well and takes powder easily. I recommend it highly and look forward to taking it out this season.

                    Great board! Used this in Telluride, CO last week in all kinds of snow. Great on groomed runs at high speed and great in over 20 icnhs of powder. A little tougher to manage than my last board but this also is not a beginner board. If you know how to ride you'll really enjoy it!
