Comments about K2 Zeppelin Snowboard 2008:

This is a phenomenal board. It's light and lively, and just plain fun as an all-mountain board. It tracks well on the groomers, and can grip most ice patches. Although I wish it had several more cm's on it for the pow, the Zep still handles that fairly well. The size I got it is just right for playing in between trees, and the Zep is very nimble. Its flex is quite nice and should help you nail the jumps and rail the carves.

Although K2s are no longer made on Vashon Island (loooong ago) the overall quality is quite good. The base is fast, but a bit soft, especially for early season conditions at Whistler with thin snow cover over rocks (my fault really). A good repair and grind fixed it right up like it was new.

The only thing bad that I can say is that topsheet is highly scratchable. The shimmer of the paint is nice, but it's very noticeable say if accidentally scraped by a ski pole in the lift line.

This is good stuff. Best bang for the buck.

Yeah, go get one.

Comments about K2 Zeppelin Snowboard 2008:

Just got it, I love this board already, only rode it once can't wait to ride it again all next season. stiff and fast but not "too" stiff. even better after short break-in.

best all-mountain board as far as bang for the $. tight in any conditions. excellent for pipe, powder, trees, jumps/kickers, charging the park full speed, and "piste"

This board has made me a better rider, seriously. It carves like a dream, is light as a feather, and the graphics are sweet. Sucker is fast too. Stop your searching now, just buy it! You will not regret it.

ABOUT K2 Zeppelin Snowboard 2008

The 2008 K2 Zepplin Snowboard is a Classic K2. The board that defines K2’s heritage, the Zeppelin has offered peak to park performance more than a decade now. With a 4000 Ceramic Sintered base and Hyper Progressive Sidecut, the K2 Zeppelin Snowboard delivers speed and control. With a smooth and consistent release of energy precisely when you need it, the Ti - A Power Fork technology, Multi Polar Core and directional twin shape give you maximum pop charging the fall line from hit to hit or spinning off a cornice. The 2008 K2 Zepplin Snowboard is an all mountain ruler.
  • Hybritech Construction- Hybritech is the most effective way to make a snowboard. It takes a cap tip and tail and blends it into a sidewall along the running surface. K2 takes the time to create complex molds and parts that bring these two features together. It gives you low swing weight and optimized turn initiation at the ends combined with durability and damping on the running surface. This design produces high-performance boards that excel across any variety of mountain terrain, snow conditions and riding styles.
  • Multi Polar Core- The lightweight strength and liveliness of the Multi Core but with added damping pads isolated under each foot. The pads isolate the inserts into the top of the core, which cuts vibrations leading to the foot, and gives you a flatter, faster base by reducing "base suck-up."
  • Hyper Progressive Sidecut- K2’s most aggressive, yet versatile sidecut. A very gentle radius in the tip and tail are blended to a tight radius in the center of the board. Whether you want to relax and bomb with confidence or carve circles around your buddy, this sidecut puts you in control of your turns.
  • Ti-A Power Forks- Dual bands of titanium-aluminum alloy bracketing the contact points are combined with carbon off-axis layers. The result is an extended area of maximum edge control along with tremendous energy and response.
  • 4000 Sintered Base- With added carbon plus ceramic fibers. Graphite adds speed, while ceramic improves abrasion resistance.
