K2

Excavator Snowboard - 2025

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"K2’s Excavator rips through everything—powder, groomers, even chopped-up snow. The camber underfoot feels locked-in when carving, while the rockered nose keeps it floating in deeper snow. The Carbon Power Forks give it extra pop out of turns, making it one of the most responsive freeride boards I’ve ridden."

Who It’s For

Advanced Freeride and All-Mountain Riders:

The Excavator is best for snowboarders who want a stiff, directional deck built for charging steep lines, floating pow, and railing groomers. It’s suited for intermediate to expert riders who prioritize control, edge hold, and high-speed stability.

What It’s For

Powder and High-Speed All-Mountain Riding:

This board is tuned for riders who want to carve trenches on corduroy in the morning and float through pow stashes in the afternoon. Its directional camber, setback stance, and stiff flex make it ideal for freeride performance in variable conditions.

Why We Like It

Power, Float, and Response in Every Turn:

We like the Excavator because it blends freeride stability with surprising playfulness. The S1 core keeps it lightweight yet strong, while Carbon Power Forks in the tail give it snappy energy transfer. Add in a sintered 4001 base for speed, and it’s a freeride workhorse that never feels sluggish.
