Taking the strongest parts of its previous existence and evolving, the all-new K2 Aterblack was engineered for serious durability with a focus on classic freestyle flex, and feel, with modern maneuverability.
Weve taken a proven construction and design philosophy and listened to our team riders to bring together the all-new K2 Afterblack twin tip snowboard. Team rider Mark Wilson weighed in heavy on tip & tail shape, sidecut radius, blend zone, and camber profile. After rounds of testing on the hill and in the streets, we signed the dotted line on the second incarnation of the K2 Afterblack.
Designed for the intermediate-to-expert level snowboarder, the Afterblack is a mid-flexing true-twin with a Combination Camber Profile (with camber in between the bindings and rocker on the outside of the insiders) giving it a playful feel while still being able to hold speed and track straight into the next feature. Its tri-blend BAP Core blends bamboo, aspen, and paulownia woods to deliver snap and rebound while dampening vibration on the harshest landings. Wrapping the core, tip-to-tail triaxially woven fiberglass and Carbon Darkweb gives the Afterblack stability and edge control for popping off lips and sending big side hits.
Base colors vary by size:
- Yellow: 149, 151
- Orange: 159W, 160
- Red: 154, 156W, 157
Features:
- Flex: 5
- Profile: Twin Combination Camber
- Sintered 4000 Base: Our Sintered 4000 base absorbs wax deep into the material for relentless glide and unrivaled durability.
- BAP Core: A tri-blend wood core harnesses the rebound, strength, and feel of sustainably harvested Bamboo, Aspen, and Paulownia timber species.
- Triax Glass: A fiberglass weave intersecting at three angles provides extra torsional stiffness and overall strength.
- Carbon Darkweb: Carbon stringers extend at 45º angles from the inserts in an X pattern, adding responsiveness and stability at all speeds.
- Hybridtech Construction: Backed by years of rigorous testing, Hybritech is the lightest weight, most durable snowboard construction on the market. Removing all excess sidewall material in the tip and tail and adding a 3D capped edge to increase the bond strength of the fiberglass and decrease the swing weight of the board is what makes Hybritech so revolutionary. Our boards will spin faster, maneuver easier, and last longer than any other boards on the market.
