| K2 - Parkstar - Freestyle | |
| Last season, the K2 Parkstar™ took Rookie of the Year honors, winning over camp kids, seasoned pros and magazine testers straight off the rack. This year the 2010-11 K2 Parkstar flexes a little more muscle, emerging as a fun, press-ready ride with screaming base swaps, a chaos topsheet and the forgiving JIB ROCKER feel that made it famous. Unmatched maneuverability and something loosely defined as ‘buttery goodness’ back the Parkstar’s game. |

| Prior - Brandywine - Freeride - Womens | |
The Brandywine, Prior's high performance, all mountain board for women, draws a smooth, stable and fast line through all snow conditions. With a narrower waist and softer flex than the Mens Freeride, the Brandywine allows women to drive the board harder and maximize energy transfer for the best ride possible.

Rider type – The confident, capable woman who wants to kill it all over the mountain and keep up with the boys. It’s great for big mountain riders, weekend warriors, and aggressive girls.

| Prior - Powstick - Freeride | |
The Pow-stick, Prior’s swallowtail, is the undisputed king of big mountain directional powder boards. The behavior and performance of this rocket ship is the result of years of research and development and can be attributed to the nose shape/profile that allows for effortless floatation and the swallowtail that allows for a more natural stance in the powder without the dreaded back leg burn. Away from the powder the Pow-stick provides amazing edge hold and ride on the groomers…and gets many looks in the lift line. The Prior Pow-Stick is in a class of its own, it has set the standard by which all big mountain powder boards strive to attain.
Best for - open bowl and glades...the deeper the better.
Rider type - Directional riders who have a fetish for untracked, open bowl powder. The Pow-stick is ‘king of pow!
