Product description
Deep snow, sidehits and the entire resort
The K2 Antidote is expertly crafted to tackle deep snow, steep descents, powder kickers, and even some freestyle moves here and there. To achieve this, K2 has found the perfect balance of flex, width, and sidecut and incorporated advanced technologies such as the K2 Carbon DarkWeb™, the A1 Core, integrated SpaceGlass™ in the tip and tail, and a Sintered 4001 Base. It offers top-notch performance both in the backcountry and on the slopes.
Riding Style
The Antidote is designed for powder, side hits, and natural freestyle features. A freeride board with a penchant for freestyle in any terrain.
Shape
The Directional Twin shape gives you more uplift in powder and excellent riding characteristics forward and switch. Due to the offset of the bindings in the direction of the tail (setback), the nose gets a little longer. However, the shape of the nose and tail remains symmetrical. This geometry uplifts the board in powder and offers stability at high speeds while you enjoy a pure freestyle feeling.
Profile
The traditional camber profile consists of one positive camber from nose to tail. This profile offers high stability, good edge control, and plenty of pop. However, camber boards tend to catch an edge more easily than other profiles.
Flex
The medium flex is ideal for the all-mountain design of this board. Hard enough for powerful turns but still soft enough for a playful ride
Construction
The A1 Core comes with a light, snappy blend of bamboo, aspen wood, and paulownia. In addition, bamboo stringers under the bindings provide even more snap and pop. ICG™ 20 Triax Glass provides torsional stiffness and unparalleled edge hold. Carbon Darkweb™, a carbon layer, increases energy transfer and provides stability even at high speeds - full control in every situation. SpaceGlass™ Tip & Tail comes from aerospace and, together with the Recess3D top sheet, reduces the snowboard's overall swing weight. The wax-infused Sintered 4001 Base absorbs wax deep into the pores, is extremely fast, and stays that way when you maintain it.

Snowboards are usually delivered ready-to-ride with a waxed base and sharpened edges. However, this so-called factory-tuning is not very durable and your new snowboard should be properly waxed after a few days and maintained on a regular basis.
