Built at K2's Team's request and targeted at the advanced-to-expert level rider, the Antidote is an all-new all-mountain snowboard that blurs the lines between freeride and freestyle. It feels most at home charging around the resort is takes a liking to more significant freestyle features. Learning from the success of the Alchemist, we've included a ton of technology into this directional twin. We've added our patented SpaceGlass™ technology to the tip and tail of this new model. Weight reduction allows for quicker spins, and a more rigid material means better edge pressure at the contact points.
K2's all-new Recess3D technology removes material from the board, helping to reduce weight and chatter and add a visual depth to the top sheet.
While the rest of the board is absolutely packed with tech features, the key element that makes the Antidote perform so well is the 3D Base Contour. 3mm of contour from contact-to-contact point in the tip and tail makes this board ride like nothing else. Adding 3D shaping to the base helps to deflect soft snow, eases the process of turn initiation, deflects chunder and crud when it gets hectic, and gives the Antidote a more "catch-free" ride.

Lightweight, snappy, and durable, K2's A1 Core is made from three renewable species of timber - Bamboo, Aspen, and Paulownia. Aspen-dominant to highlight the snap and response of this wood, we've combined it with Bamboo at 30 ° underfoot to increase strength, supercharge the edge-to-edge response, and increase the pressure distribution along the edge. We've also placed lightweight paulownia in the tip and tail to help to reduce swing weight.
ICG™ 20 Triax Glass with Carbon - Integrating tip-to-tail carbon fiber stringers into fiberglass layups ensures a smooth power release in and out of turns while increasing the snowboard's pop, liveliness, and longevity without adding unnecessary rigidity.
Carbon Darkweb: A carbon fiber lay-up that aids in energy transfer and stability, speeding up edge-to-edge transitions and keeping you in control in times of need.
8mm of convex 3D contour (spoon), gradually blended from the running surface into the nose of the board to float like hell and maintain a predictable feel on hardpack.
