Description
Blurring lines between freestyle and freeride, the K2 Manifest is a versatile speed machine with a mid-to-stiff flex that's built to withstand the beating that comes along with big mountain snowboarding. The Manifest sports a directional twin shape and a Combination Camber Profile, giving it a consistent and predictable feel while riding switch or regular and adds a bit of rocker to the nose and tail of the board for float and a catch-free feel. The lightweight A1 Core is built snappy and gives you the strength to send the kickers in park or drop into the powder. Carbon DarkWeb stringers extending out from the binding inserts to the edges ensure a precise response to every command you give to the board, and ICG 20 Triax Fiberglass with tip-to-tail carbon reduces chatter and delivers stability in the rowdiest conditions. The cherry on top is a fast and resilient Sintered 4000 Base that holds wax and withstands punishment.

The Sintered 4000 base absorbs wax deep into the material for relentless glide and unrivaled durability.CARBON DARKWEB
A carbon fibre lay-up that aids in energy transfer and stability, speeding up edge-to-edge transitions and keeping you in control in times of need.A1 CORE
Lightweight, snappy and durable, K2's A1 Core is made from three renewable species of timber--Bamboo, Aspen and Paulownia. Aspen-dominant to highlight the snap and response of this wood, K2 has combined it with Bamboo at 30° underfoot to increase strength, supercharge the edge-to-edge response, and increase the pressure distribution along the edge. K2 also placed lightweight paulownia in the tip and tail to help to reduce swing weight.ICG CARBON GLASS
Integrating tip-to-tail carbon fiber stringers into fiberglass layups ensures a smooth power release in and out of turns while increasing pop, liveliness and longevity of the snowboard without adding unnecessary rigidity.Snowboards Sizing Guide
In addition to other important factors like skill level and terrain type, choosing the right snowboard for you depends on knowing which size is best suited for your height and weight. These two simple measurements provide an approximate guide for beginners who are new to the sport and are unsure where to start when it comes to sizing. Use the following size chart to help guide you to the perfect snowboard.

On average, your snowboard should fall somewhere between your chin and the very bottom of your nose when held upright. There are a few additional details that play a significant role in determining which snowboard size is the right fit for you. After consulting the size chart, be sure to consider your weight, skill level, snowboarding style and the type of terrain you’ll be frequenting.
Here are some reasons for sizing up or down:
- Size up if you are closer to the high end of your weight range or above average weight for your height.
- Size up if you are an advanced/expert rider who is speed-driven and wants maximum power.
- Size down if you are a beginner/intermediate snowboarder.
- Size down if you are a freestyle or park rider looking for enhanced overall control and maneuverability.
