There wasn't a single person at the snowboard test this year who didn't have a lot of fun on the K2 Raygun, plus and it's really well priced too.
The Raygun is an incredibly versatile all-mountain freestyle board that can ride powder, park and happily carve down the piste. Its zero camber profile with rocker in the nose and tail makes the board incredibly stable and forgiving.
K2 uses biaxial glass combined with a wood core that gives this snowboard a smooth medium flex allowing the Raygun to ride uneven terrain without a problem.
Pair this up with a solid set of bindings and you have the perfect first board, or, if you're on a budget a cracking all-mountain board to quickly improve and progress on.
