Men's Snowboard Aspen Core - A single-species lightweight wood core that delivers smooth flex and lively rebound. ICG™ 10 Biax Carbon Glass - Integrating Carbon Fiber stringers that run the length of the board into our fiberglass increases the snap of the snowboard without adding unnecessary rigidity. Hybritech™ Sidewall Construction - A K2 exclusive. By transitioning from a P-Tex sidewall into a capped construction in the tip and tail of our snowboards, we can reduce waste while giving our snowboards better energy transfer and making them more durable than our competitors. Extruded 2000 Base - A low-maintenance and smooth gliding base material that’s durable and easy to repair. The K2 Gateway Snowboard combines a classic directional twin shape and a progressive Combination Camber Profile that takes on all comers and is the perfect ally for ripping down open powder fields, perfectly spaced tree runs, or your favorite line in the park. The Gateway’s aspen core provides a snappy and playful feel with a mid-flex for quick edge changes through sketchy terrain and pressing on boxes and butters. We use our ICG™ 10 Biax Fiberglass with tip-to-tail carbon stringers for edge hold through choppy terrain and at high speeds and added an Extruded 2000 base to provide a smooth and durable feel that’ll have you leading your crew to the next secret stash. The all-mountain Gateway packs premium tech into an affordable package for leveling up your skillset on any terrain the resort has to offer. K2 Snowboarding Men's Gateway Snowboard
