K2 Antidote snowboard

Information

Built at our Team's request and targeted at the advanced-to-expert level rider, the K2 Antidote is an all-new all-mountain snowboard that blurs the lines between freeride and freestyle.

It feels most at home charging around the resort is takes a liking to more significant freestyle features. Learning from the success of the Alchemist, we've included a ton of technology into this directional twin. We've added our patented SpaceGlass™ technology to the tip and tail of this new model. Weight reduction allows for quicker spins, and a more rigid material means better edge pressure at the contact points.

Our all-new Recess3D technology removes material from the board, helping to reduce weight and chatter and add a visual depth to the top sheet.

While the rest of the board is absolutely packed with tech features, the key element that makes the Antidote perform so well is the 3D Base Contour. 3mm of contour from contact-to-contact point in the tip and tail makes this board ride like nothing else. Adding 3D shaping to the base helps to deflect soft snow, eases the process of turn initiation, deflects chunder and crud when it gets hectic, and gives the Antidote a more "catch-free" ride.

BOARD SHAPE

A1 CORE:
Lightweight, snappy, and durable, our 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, we've combined it with Bamboo at 30 ° underfoot to increase strength, supercharge the edge-to-edge response, and increase the pressure distribution along the edge. We've also placed lightweight paulownia in the tip and tail to help to reduce swing weight.

RECESS 3D:
By reducing the number of materials in low-stress zones, we’re able to minimize the swing weight of your snowboard while also reducing chatter in the tip and tail - all without sacrificing strength.

SPACEGLASS™:
A pre-cured fiberglass insert placed in the board's tip to reduce swing weight and add durability and maneuverability.

3D BASE CONTOUR:
3mm of 3D contour (spoon) that gradually blends from the running surface deflects soft snow, eases turn initiation, and remains predictable on hardpack.

WAX INFUSED SINTERED 4001 BASE:
Wax-Infused Sintered 4001 Base - Built using the hardest and fastest Sintered base material on the market from Crown, the Wax-Infused Sintered 4001 holds wax longer than other Sintered bases for a smoother glide, longer.

ICG™ 20 CARBON GLASS:
ICG™ 20 Triax Glass with Carbon - Integrating tip-to-tail carbon fiber stringers into fiberglass layups ensures a smooth power release in and out of turns while increasing the snowboard's pop, liveliness, and longevity without adding unnecessary rigidity.

CARBON DARKWEB:
A carbon fiber lay-up that aids in energy transfer and stability, speeding up edge-to-edge transitions and keeping you in control in times of need.

3D CONTOUR NOSE:
8mm of convex 3D contour (spoon), gradually blended from the running surface into the nose of the board to float like hell and maintain a predictable feel on hardpack.

2 X 4 INSERT BINDING MOUNTING:
2x4 Insert packs allow for secure binding mounting while optimizing stance-width options.
Time-tested, secure, and stable.
