Built at K2's Team's request and targeted at the advanced-to-expert level rider, the Antidote is a unisex all-mountain snowboard that blurs the lines between freeride and freestyle. The Andtdote is responsive and slightly setback for hard-charging, all-mountain ripping, but also, you wouldn't be wrong to think this looks a lot like a freestyle snowboard. It has full, traditional camber and is symmetrically shaped, making it super responsive through turns and balanced in the air. Whether you're throwing freestyle tricks into the deep stuff, playfully slaying big mountain, or just attacking the park and the rest of the mountain with equal intensity, the Antidote is the perfect new alternative to the tired choice between directional beefcakes and super soft park twin boards. A quiver killer some might say.
Rider Type: All-Mountain / Freestyle
Shape: Directional Twin
Flex: Stiff
Rocker: Twin Camber Profile
Ability Level: Advanced / Expert
CAMBER
Twin Camber Profile – A twin camber profile makes the snowboard under your feet lively and poppy helping you track straight into jumps and pop ollies over fences.
FLEX
Flex Rating – 8 (1 Playful - 10 Precise)
CORE
A1 Core – Lightweight, snappy, and durable, the all-new A1 Core is made from three renewable species of timber - bamboo, aspen, and paulownia. Aspen-dominant to highlight the snap and response of this wood, it's combined with bamboo at 30 ° underfoot to increase strength, supercharge the edge-to-edge response, and increase the pressure distribution along the edge. They've also placed lightweight paulownia in the tip and tail help to reduce swing weight.
LAMINATES
ICG™ 20 Triaxial Carbon Glass – Integrating tip-to-tail carbon fiber stringers into fiberglass layups ensures a smooth power release in and out of turns while increasing pop, liveliness, and longevity of the snowboard without adding unnecessary rigidity.
Carbon DarkWeb™ – A carbon fiber X-pattern that is strategically placed underfoot from edge-to-edge to speed up transitions, increase control, and increase underfoot strength.
SpaceGlass™ Tip and Tail – An American made Aerospace grade precure fiberglass core insert used to provide unmatched structural performance at reduced weight. SpaceGlass™ inserts increase edge hold along contact points, reduce chatter, and provide unequaled durability.
BASE
Wax-Infused Sintered 4001 Base – Built using the hardest and fasted sintered base material on the market from Crown, the Wax-Infused Sintered 4001 Base hold wax longer than other sintered bases for a smoother glide, longer.
3D Nose Contour – 3D contour (spoon) that is gradually blended from the running sur-face deflects soft snow, eases turn initiation, while remaining predictable on hardpack.
TOPSHEET
recess3d Topsheet – By reducing the amount of materials in low-stress zones, K2 is able to reduce the swing weight of your snowboard, while also reducing chatter in the tip and tail - all without sacrificing strength.
