Anyone ride a K2 WWW-Rocker? - Snowboarding Forum

02-24-2009, 09:30 PM

hey anyone ride the K2 world wide weapon rocker and have a review to give?

Worth the money?

How does it compare to other freestyle boards? (currently have a old forum recon: compared to the recon?)

Will it hold up out of the park for some blue/black cruising? (east coast blacks)

Any opinions/thoughts bout the board appreciated.

bought it love it. i got a 148 and the thing is a blast to rip anything! well worth the money i spent on it. i originally bought it for full price but got refunded when i noticed it went on sale like two weeks later. compared to my old dominant, this thing is far better. i might go as far as calling it tits. third answers, yes it will be able to hold its on on groomer cruises. its a blast, go buy one already!

Hrm, just to butt in--

1) what size board for 5'10", 155lbs, and size 11 boots?
2) have you tried to normal camber and compared it to the reverse camber?

my friend has the rockered and i have the regualar one. Both 148. I have ridden both a couple times. Either one is hands down the most fun board i have had. You cant tell a huge diff. between them. Its there but no HUGE diff. It turns easier. harder to catch edge on a rail. Seems like its a little faster too. hope that helps.

buy one now. you will not regret it.

the reason the -r and the cambered version are so similar is because there is hardly any rocker at all on it. If you look at the side profile of K2's jib rocker you'll see.

i want to say a 6 mm lift at the tip and tail, thats pretty much zero camber lol..i held a wwwR up in my hand and if the sticker didnt say it was a rocker i couldnt of told you it was either lol..

You don't want to do business with that shady company.

jmac is right. the camber is really minimal. but the pressability of the rockered board is nasty
