The K2 Medium Snowboard is a freestyle specialist that's at home in the park, on the snowy city streets, and just about anywhere you can jib. With a twin shape, full camber profile, and K2's Carbon DarkWeb technology, this board provides incredible grip and explosive pop, perfect for tricking off everything in sight. And with gender inclusive sizes ranging from 141cm to 159cm, this versatile ride has something to offer anyone of a freestyle persuasion. A deep sidecut between the feet and a smooth blend zone in the tip and tail make the medium feel more stable, but still nimble for those low-speed maneuvers in the streets. The new Carbon Backbone™ is a pre-cambered carbon stringer that runs form tip to tail, giving the rider all of the snap that he needs without the extra stiffness that he doesn’t, while the Carbon DarkWeb™ is strategically placed underfoot from edge-to-edge to speed up transitions, increase control, and increase underfoot strength.

Additional material and technology information

Core
BAP Core : Bamboo. Aspen. Paulownia. K2 has blended three species of renewable timber to assemble a core that’s strong, lightweight, and designed to enhance dampening without the addition of other materials.

Reinforcement
Carbon Backbone™ : Built in a pre-loaded cambered shape and placed between the binding inserts, the Carbon Backbone™ helps by adding extra snap between the feet to increase pop from the highest load-zone.
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.

Additives & Base
Triaxial Glass : A glass laminate with diagonal layers that adds torsional stiffness for increased stability and improved edge hold. The fibers three layers of fibers are woven at 45° , 45° , and 0° . This makes for a more responsive ride longitudinally and torsionally.
Sintered 4000 Base : The sintered 4000 base absorbs wax deep into the material for relentless glide and unrivaled durability.
