K2 Men's Afterblack Wide 2021

A team favorite in the parks and in the streets, the Afterblack utilizes K2sCarbon DarkWeb™ and triax fiberglass to provide quick response and snap, and just a touch of rocker in the tips to create a ride that’s equally predictable and pressable. The Sintered 4000 base provides a fast and durable layer of protection between obstacles and the core of the most versatile twin in K2s line.

Features:

• Shape: Twin
• Rocker: Combination Camber
• Core: BAP Core
• Base: Sintered 4000 Base

Camber Profile:

Combination Camber

Cambered in between the bindings with just the right amount of rocker outside the inserts--to give it a playful feeling while still being able to hold speed and track on the big jump line.

Shape:

True Twin

A true twin shape is completely symmetrical. If you cut a true twin in half exactly down the middle, you would end up with two identical pieces of board.

This means that the nose and the tail are the same length and the same width and the bindings are centred on the board – i.e. they are equal distances from the centre of the board and the front binding is the same distance from the nose as the back binding is from the tail.

Of course, as you can adjust the width of the position of the bindings you could create a setback stance if you were so inclined but this would be unusual on a true twin given its purpose and might be a strange feel depending on the camber profile (i.e. one foot could end up being over camber and the other over rocker which would probably feel odd).

In addition to this a true twin has exactly the same flex in the nose and tail.

Flex:

Triaxial Glass

A glass laminate with diagonal layers that adds torsional stiffness for increased stability and improved edge hold. The fibers three layers of fibers are woven at 45°, 45°, and 0°. This makes for a more responsive ride longitudinally and torsionally.

Carbon Darkweb

A carbon fiber lay-up that aids in energy transfer and stability, speeding up edge-to-edge transitions and keeping you in control in times of need.
