K2 Split Bean Package

K2 Split Bean Package

The Split Bean Splitboard is a deep snow unicorn in snowboard form. Engineered with backcountry powder on the mind, the K2 Split Bean is directional in both shape and aesthetic. A long, exaggerated tip and a tapered swallow tail helps to float in the deep-white-gold. With a flat camber profile underfoot, and our Tweakend™ rocker profile based upon an ellipse in the tip, the Split Bean feels predictable when it gets hairy above the treeline. To help accommodate the short length, we’ve leaned our Volume Shift™ mindset - adding width to the waist while subtracting length from the tip and tail. This helps to recreate float like a board much longer, allowing you to downsize 10-15cm from your traditional splitboard for tight turning pow maneuverability. To balance out the width of the Split Bean, we’ve placed a biax glass around a sustainably harvested tri-blend core. This helps to make the board feel relaxed torsionally while still give you all the snap you need thanks to the tip-to-tail bamboo stringers. The SplitTrack™ binding mount system includes mounting pucks and templates that help guide you through the process of custom fitting your stance - dialing in the width and angles. We lean on a Sintered 4000 base, a material known to be fast, durable, and hold wax longer than most competitors. To top it off, we use a specially created, and K2 branded, POMOCA® Blended Mohair/Nylon climbing skins that provide superior grip and glide on the skin track while resisting clumping and ice build up. - DIRECTIONAL ROCKER PROFILE - An all-purpose profile designed to be the perfect companion for the all-terrain snowboarder. Directional Rocker Profile has medium-rise rocker in the tip, flat in the middle of the board, and low-rise rocker in the tail, allowing for effortless turns on hardpack and ample float in soft snow and crud. --- CATCH-FREE TUNE - By bringing the contact points out of the snow, this beginner-friendly tune ensures linking turns without a catch. This small amount of bevel in the tip and tail aids in more confidence throughout the learning curve and unlocks faster progression on all terrain. - VOLUME SHIFT™ - We’ve moved volume from the tips and tails of traditional snowboard shapes and placed it underfoot where it can be better controlled. This makes a wider, shorter design that maintains the same float and stability of a traditional board, but increases mobility and maneuverability. More slashing and better lines in the trees are now a reality. - Sintered 4000 Base - Absorbs wax easily for relentless glide and unrivaled durability. - BAP Core - Three species blend of renewable timber to make a strong, lightweight, and durable core. - BIAXIAL GLASS - Smooth all-purpose performance with a no-frills design. Fibers are woven together at 0 ° and 90 °, creating a more forgiving flex pattern. - Split Kit Comes Complete with Splitboard, Pre-Cut Skins, Hardware, and Mounting Pucks. -
