Built to instill confidence in new riders and keep them coming back for more, the First Lite’s foundation is a directional twin shape and is topped off with K2’s Catch-Free™ Tune. This makes learning how to snowboard both regular and switch as easy as possible - as the snowboard will feel identical riding in both directions. Easier release equals fewer falls, less time taking breaks, more time on the mountain, and faster progression.

SHAPE

• DIRECTIONAL TWIN
• ROCKER PROFILE:  Flat in between the bindings with rocker just outside the bindings. This results in easy turn initiation and release of every turn. 

CONSTRUCTION

• EXTRUDED 2000 BASE: K2's low-maintenance Extruded 2000 base delivers a consistent glide and is easy to both maintain and repair.
• ASPEN CORE: A single species of wood ensures consistency - giving riders the advantage of a proven flex, durability, and snap.
• BIAXIAL GLASS: Smooth all-purpose performance with a no-frills design. Fibers are woven together at 0° and 90°, creating a more forgiving flex pattern.
• CATCH-FREE™ TUNE: By bringing the contact points out of the snow, this beginner-friendly tune ensures linking turns without a catch. This small amount of bevel in the tip and tail aids in more confidence throughout the learning curve and unlocks faster progression on all terrain.
• 2 X 4 INSERT BINDING MOUNTING: 2x4 Insert packs allow for secure binding mounting while optimizing stance-width options. Time-tested, secure, and stable.
