For years, the K2 Slayblade has dominated the all-mountain snowboard category, leading the charge in the freeride class. Just when you thought it couldn't get any better-- it did. The 2014 design now comes complete with full Hybritech construction and a new Precision Lifted Baseline for optimum pop and energy. This is the stiffest board in K2's fleet and but it's unique design lends a playful feel so it's ridable in any terrain. The Slayblade is notorious for its unparalleled edge control-- perfect for making steep, deep, "Euro-carves" all over the mountain. This board is best suited for freestyle riders looking to haul balls and hold their edge.

Reviewer Insight: "This is good for someone looking for a stiff freestyle board. It's better for a heavier rider, as it took a bit for me to initiate turns. Hard-charging and fun."
