The WWW is a jib-specific park board that can actually be ridden all mountain.
I absolutely love the WWW. I originally bought it as a park board, but the thing is so damn addictive to ride, that I end up riding it all over the mountain.
In the park it is pretty much unbeatable on any jib, box, or rail feature, and great on small to medium sized jumps. I hit a couple of 50 foot tables on it, and while it did fine, you have to be spot on with the landing, as the nose and tail are pretty soft. The board really likes to spin, whether onto boxes or into the air. The softness of the board makes it very forgiving when getting onto rails and landing spins off small features.
The remarkable thing about this board is that because K2 cut the nose and tail off, the effective edge is that of a longer board. So the 155 rides like a 160, for example. So, while it is definitely designed for the park, it holds and edge and makes decent turns on the mountain. It is pretty soft, so when you get into chop you do end up absorbing a lot with your legs, but for run of the mill riding, warm-up laps, or simply getting to the park, it is a really fun board to ride.
I'm not totally keen on this years graffics, but that's not usuaully important on a board because I cover them up with stickers anyways. However, because the top-sheet is made of p-tex (that's right, the same stuff your base is made of), you can't even put stickers on it. A major bummer.
