K2 Believer as a beginner

Posted: 05 March 2011 12:50 PM

Hi everyone,

I recently got into boarding, had a trip to bansko, and plenty of lessons. I am able to get down blues fairly competently. Linking turns etc albeit not at blistering speed just yet. I was using a Burton Process V.

I’ve just purchased a K2 Believer as it was on sale and had a good discount, and I’ll be honest I just love the look of this board. From the reviews it seems to be a pretty good all round board.

I’m not hitting parks yet, but not bombing down the mountain either. I stick to groomers basically.

I’ve yet had a chance to test the board yet, going to a dome tomorrow though.

Is the board very forgiving for beginners? Is the flatline technology going to make it too fast for me?

Thanks :)

As you already purchased your ride, it’ll be best to just try it out and see what happens! Nothing we say can replace a testing experience anyway..

Have fun with it, it’s definitely a great board!
Cheers Tobi
