The K2 Almanac Snowboard is the latest incarnation from the K2 lab, a purpose built daily driver that's almost too good to be true. It's like a super strain of genetically modified corn carefully engineered to maximize resilience and yield. No matter how bad the conditions get, this board won't just survive – it'll thrive. With its Directional Combination Camber Profile, Volume Shift shape, and carbon reinforced BAP Core, this board will keep you smiling and satisfied whether it's waist deep or bulletproof.
Directional Combination Camber Profile – The best of both worlds. By blending both traditional Camber and Rocker profiles, Combination Camber gives you all the benefits of both; the pop and precision of camber, and the float and predictability of rocker.
Flex Rating – 5 (1 Playful - 10 Precise)
Volume Shift™ – Volume is moved from the tips and tails of traditional snowboard shapes and placed underfoot where it can be better controlled. This makes a wider, shorter design that maintains the same float and stability of a traditional board, but increases mobility and maneuverability. Size down 3-5cm from your uaual snowboard length.
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.
Carbon Backbone™ – Tip to tail cambered carbon insert running down the center of the snowboard adds response and rebound for precise control on approaches and landing heavy tricks, and adding snap to every ollie.
Ollie Bar™ – A pre-curved carbon fiber strip placed between the binding inserts, the Ollie Bar™ helps by adding extra snap between the feet to increase pop from the highest load-zone.
Biax Glass – Smooth all-purpose performance with a no-frills design. Fibers are woven together at 0° and 90°, creating a more forgiving flex pattern.
Sintered 4000 Base – The sintered 4000 base absorbs wax deep into the material for relentless glide and unrivaled durability.

TriPod™ Chassis – A way to rethink the traditional binding baseplate design. Designated to act as the most bio-mechanically efficient chassis possible, the Tripod™ baseplate features power transmission pods that coincide with the three points of contact of the foot and is designed to flex the way that the foot is naturally meant to.
3° Canted Footbed – Canted 3° to match your natural leg position during riding. More support to the outside of the foot provides improved control while reducing fatigue.
