K2 Excavator 2024

The 2024 K2 Excavator is the perfect short, wide snowboard when you are looking to dig some deep trenches into freshly groomed runs, or glide effortlessly through powder on your next overseas excursion. With a wider width and 20mm of taper the responsive and damp underfoot core combined with tip to tail carbon stringers keeps the Excavator snappy and initiates turns like no other, making it the perfect hybrid groomer/powder powerhouse which will not disappoint on the mountain.

* Due to the volume shift of this board, we recommend you select a size 4-8cm shorter than your regular length snowboard

Board Type: All Mountain and Powder

Inserts: 2×4

Camber Type: Directional Camber Profile

The board offers the best of both in terms of board profiles. Blending both traditional camber and rocker, you get the best of both worlds; the pop, stability, and precision of camber, and the float and predictability of rocker.

Flex: 7/10 (1 = soft / 10 = stiff)

A mid-stiff flex that is poppy and stable at speed.

Shape: Directional

The Excavator has a directional shape so it wants to ride forwards and forwards only.

Core: S1 Core

Created to be more damp underfoot and incredibly strong, the S1 core is constructed from Bamboo, Aspen, and Paulownia. Tip to tail Bamboo add snap, durability, and damping underfoot is balanced by lightweight Paulownia in the middle, tip and tail of the board. Aspen and Bamboo are placed at 30 degree angles to increase strength and add response underfoot.

ICG 10 Biax Glass

Integrating tip to tail carbon fiber stringers into fiberglass lay-ups ensures a smooth power release in and out of turns while increasing pop, liveliness, and longevity of the snowboard without adding unnecessary rigidity.

Carbon Power Fork

These power forks are strategically shaped to offer greater response and energy return by increasing the width towards the tail, this allows more energy to be created the harder the tail is dug into the snow.

Base: Sintered 4001 Base

Built from the hardest and fastest Sintered base material on the market, the 4001 base holds wax longer than other sintered bases for a faster, smoother ride. 

Additional Features:

SnoPhobic Topsheet
