Bringing a new level of Pop to K2’s Baseline offering, Lifted is just what it sounds like. Taking the flat between the feet foundation that all our boards are built on and we simply raised it. This brings in the Pop of a cambered boards while maintaining the even weighted contact points that give you the straight tracking, effortless precision of a flat board. Once again you can have it all.
Tweaking the ends of our boards we have taken our industry leading Baseline technology to the next level. By extending the Baseline rocker all the way out to the absolute ends of the board, new rideable surface is unlocked, giving you a bigger, more stable platform to press, float and land on.

K2 pioneered the rocker revolution back in 2005 with the reintroduction of the Gyrator and it’s Powder Rocker Baseline. Since then our Baseline offering has grown but remained consistent and easy to understand. Helping to cut through the Rocker confusion and allowing consumers to quickly select the right profile for how and where they ride.

Baseline is the line the steel edge makes on the bottom of the board and can be made up of Rocker, Camber, Flat or any combination of these. We offer five different Baselines each tailored to a different type of snowboarding. From the responsive and poppy feel of Precision Baseline, to dished up BC profile, there is a Baseline that perfectly matches your individual snow sliding style.

TIGHT H A NDLING S TA BL E FEEL
With flat contact points in the tip and tail, Precision Baseline turns and tracks like a traditional camber board but without the unstable hook. By spreading the initial edge contact out over an extended flat contact zone rider applied pressure is dispersed allowing for a feather light touch and quick response without the harsh hook.
Available in Subculture, Happy Hour, Slayblade, Spot Lite

By bringing the contact points out of the snow, turns happen before the edge bites and – voila! – no catch. This small amount of Rocker results in more confidence throughout the learning curve and unlocks faster progression on all terrain.

This is not an area to scrimp on weight or quality, and why our shovels are designed for durability and utility. The K2 Rescue Shovel is also designed to construct an emergency sled, build a dead man anchor, or provide a flat platform for your stove.
Built as a lightweight alternative to the Rescue shovel, the Speed is for those looking to keep it minimal and basic. With a simplified handle design and the same proven shovel design as our Rescue, the Speed shovel is everything you need, nothing you don’t.

ENDO C ON S T RUC T ION T ECHNOL OGY
C OND A
A complete rethink of how a boot is constructed and flexes. Endo brings precise, engineered flex that stays a consistent from day one through the life of the boot. Also, the 100% urethane Endo structure adds a lively, energetic feel that reduces fatigue and just feels good.
The patented K2 Conda™ System allow you to tighten or loosen your liner on-the-fly from outside of the boot! The first time you try this, you’ll wonder how you ever rode without it.
CONSIS TENT FL E X A ND FIT F OR LIFE
HOW IT WORKS: The Endo construction is based on a urethane endoskeletal structure that focuses boot structure and flex into a single engineered part. The result is a structure that flexes and returns without breaking down when compared to the stitch and glue construction of traditional boots. So you get consistent flex and a boot that returns to a neutral riding position quicker and with more energy, which helps you ride longer.

HOW IT WORKS: Whether attached to a Boa® reel for a mechanical advantage or to the single pull and lock of the K2 Conda System, the Conda minimized harness is securely built into the shell of the boot and tightens around the liner to lock your foot in position. Focus is on superior ankle support and heel hold. The harness lace is threaded through a floating tongue lace guide, allowing riders to customize fit for maximum comfort.

Introducing the NEW! K2 Gauge. Inspired by team feedback revolving around Endo construction we decided to incorporate a similar urethane mold found in our award winning T1 boot but scale back just a bit to provide a softer solution that gives freestylers the flex they need in a boot that will hold its form for years to come.
Jam-packed with ultra lightweight construction, tech and value, the Ryker continues to gain momentum as the go-to Boa® Coiler boot. Featuring K2’s patented Conda System, the Ryker delivers a little something extra both in features and on hill comfort.

K 2 C OR E T E CHNOL OGY BAMBOOYAH® is a skate inspired horizontal laminated core. Build for ultimate durability it is offered in two levels each with extra long warranty coverage. Created for models that could benefit from just a little bit of Bambooyah’s incredible strength. A little it of Bambooyah goes a long way.
BAMBOOYAH® BLEND
HYBRILIGHT Construction K2’s Hybrilight Construction features a thin, constant thickness sidewall designed for maximum performance and minimal material usage. The result is a lighter, more advanced snowboard with significantly less waste produced in manufacturing. Better on hill and greener for the hill.
ULTRA TECH Designed specifically for the needs of the Splitboarder, Ultra Tech is as tough and lightweight as it gets. Comprised of a molded edge that lands on a half height sidewall optimized to take the abuse of slapping and banging the two “skis” together while skinning.
PATENTED HYBRITECH Hybritech™ is the most efficient way to make a snowboard without sacrificing one ounce of performance. Featuring sidewall along the running surface that flows into the nose and tail providing low swing-weight, optimized turn initiation, and durability.
JIBTIP Jib Tip allows you to drop down 5 cm in board size without losing the stability of a longer board. Perfecting jibs, butters, flips, and spins has never been easier.
A DDI T I V E S
B C S H A PING DESIGN THAT STARTS WITH SOFT SNOW Soft snow turns are different. Turns and control comes from not only carving but also pushing and displacing snow. A different turn requires a different shape. With a longer tip blend and delayed initiation of the sidecut, our new BC shaping eliminates the over steering that can come form traditional hard snow based design.
The Ollie Bar is a totally new approach to adding pop to a snowboard. Built in place in a pre-loaded, cambered shape it solves the concern that rocker board don’t have the pop camber boards have. Made with a secret lay up of carbon, Kevlar and glass layers, the ollie bar is positioned in the center of the board between the binding inserts. Strong ollies and pressing power doesn’t come from the tail alone. The backbone center section is actually more critical for smooth even pressure. You gotta try it to believe the pop.
BAMBOOYAH®
HONEYKOMB TECHNOLOGY:
K2’s Honeykomb cores use a urethane-skinned Honeykomb™ for bonding strength and durability. Always placed on the bottom of the core means you get all the benefits of Honeykomb partnered with the tried and true performance of tip-to-tail, rail-to-rail wood.
WH4 CORE: The WH4 Core pulls every trick from our bag of core tech. With a greater percentage of Honeykomb than the WH3 Core, it’s engineered to maintain durability at minimal weight.
K 2 T ECHNOL OGY
Longer tip blendzone This feature allows for a smoother and more controlled line. By initiating a turn on the blend as opposed to on the sidecut, the board is less hooky with less over steering Compact Sidecut Weighting the center of the board engages the rocker specific sidecut of the BC shaping. This now shorter length sidecut (not shorter radius) locks a turn and keeps control at any speed or on any snow pack.
WH3 CORE:
Using the same wood lay up as the W2 core; Our WH3 adds two strips of Honeykomb material between the bindings and the rails.
Longer tail blend and shorter tail Allowing the tail to sink without sacrificing switch riding performance. This combo has a super quick skateboard kicktail feel that can pivot in tight trees, but still support you when landing cliffs or slashing high speed turns. Tweekends integration Tweekends compliments this design by mellowing the amount of rocker change in the tip area. Providing a constantly changing geometry that is smooth and predictable. This also eliminated “loop out” when landing in the back seat.
GL A S S T ECHNOL OGY BIAXIAL GLASS The classic structure laminate, biax glass provides the smooth, all-purpose performance. TRIAXIAL GLASS A glass laminate with diagonal layers that stiffens the board torsionally. Giving you improved edge hold and increased stability for those off-axis landings.
S IDE C U T T ECHNOL OGY
Different sidecuts give our boards many unique handling characteristics. K2’s Progressive sidecuts are advanced combinations of blended arches fined tuned to make your days on the hill more fun and less strenuous, keeping you in control at all times. HYPER PROGRESSIVE An infinite number of different radius are blended together flawlessly from mellow in the tips, to more aggressive in the center. The result is a super predictable feel that never hooks. Responsive at high speeds and smooth enough to butter your way from the peak to park. DUAL PROGRESSIVE Designed for any level of rider, our Dual Progressive sidecut is a mistake friendly, fun and forgiving sidecut, which allows for more consistent riding in all situations.

W2 CORE:
Three species of renewable wood are assembled to optimize strength, reduce weight, and enhance damping without the addition of other materials.
A DDI T I V E S
ICG GLASS Integrating carbon into the fiberglass reducing overall weight and creating a super smooth release of power while increasing pop and liveliness. Each level of ICG is tailored for the rider at hand and their performance needs. CARBON WEB Designed specifically to enhance Baseline technology, our Carbon Web bring the pop and snap of carbon closer to your bindings for maximum Ollies and control in every situation. Offered in two levels of sensitivity.
W1 CORE:
Our W1 core is characterized by a single species of pure wood with proven flex, durability, and snap. This is our standard core for entry to mid level boards.
B A S E T E CHNOL OGY
Ø SINTERED • Ultra thin, static eliminating base • Lightweight, lower material usage • Highest quality sintered available anywhere!
4000 SINTERED • Fastest natural base material available • Exceptionally Durable • Absorbs deeper & retains wax longer riding in all situations. 2000 EXTRUDED • Fast & durable • Easy to tune & repair
K 2 E C O AWA R ENE S S EARTH CONSCIOUS Construction What’s more important than preserving the best days of our lives? That’s why we’re committed to Earth Conscious and Hybrilight Constructions. A stack up of material selection and elimination technologies that results in 25% fewer plastics used than in the average board.

K2 and Intuition™ continue to evolve the most comfortable and best performance-driven boot liners in the world. Using Ultralon® EVA, a patented foam developed specifically to be lightweight, moldable, flexible and durable for riders at all skill levels, our Intuition liners are designed to be custom molded to your foot shape. This can be done in at your local snowboard shop or the heat molding can take place on hill as your body heat activates and molds the foam while you ride. Either way it’s the best personalized fit you can get.
