Live life high on the hog with this high-end snowboard that tackles every type of terrain

The SUPERPIG infuses high-end tech into our best-selling WARPIG shape for an elite all-mountain deck. If you find yourself seeking out something big and bad, avoid the other pigs and take shelter with the SUPERPIG, because this board is built like a brick shithouse. The SUPERPIG is the same shape as the WARPIG, just with a lot more tech and a little bit of camber. Size the SUPERPIG down 6 to 10cms from your standard size because of its innovative shape. The SUPERPIG rides like a very angry WARPIG. This board is made for the demanding rider that wants the aggressive thrash style of the WARPIG with camber and a little more stiffness. Don't let the shape fool you this board will go anywhere and do anything. Of course, it will still ride powder with its short, wide shape, but you'll be really impressed at how fast the SUPERPIG goes from edge to edge on hardpack and the pop the camber provides. A Tapered Bi-Radial Sidecut maximizes grip and maintains speed in all conditions. Carbon Infused Glass provides extra pop and new Carbon Slim Walls reduce weight, increase damping, and increases energy transfer to enhance response and stability. Carbon Array 5 provides extra pop without adding stiffness while the low friction Race Base is made from a carbon-infused sintered base material to ensure a fast ride.

With so many mountains to explore, the Passport is the key to accessing uncharted terrain. The Unisex K2 Passport snowboard is an inspiring addition to the line and the Landscape Collection. 

Like any good exploratory mission, don’t forget to take your Passport with you -- the key to accessing uncharted terrain. Built for the intermediate-to-expert level rider and shaped and sized to be unisex, the Passport is directional in every way but remains switch and fakie friendly. Slightly-wider-than-average waist width is met width 8mm of taper to ensure easy turning and float in deep snow.

CAMBER

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.

SHAPE

The Passport has a directional shape so it wants to ride forwards. It can handle a bit of switch for sure, but riding your natural stance is where it will shine. 

CORE

A1 Core - Lightweight, snappy, and durable, the all-new 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, it's combined with bamboo at 30 ° underfoot to increase strength, supercharge the edge-to-edge response, and increase the pressure distribution along the edge. They've also placed lightweight paulownia in the tip and tail help to reduce swing weight.

ICG 10 Triax Carbon Fiberglass - Integrating tip to tail carbon fiber stringers into fiberglass lay-ups ensures a smooth power release in and out of turns while increasing pop, liveliness, and longevity of the snowboard without adding unnecessary rigidity.

BASE

Sintered 4000 Base – The sintered 4000 base absorbs wax deep into the material for relentless glide and unrivaled durability.

BINDING COMPATIBILITY

2X4 Inserts

SPECS:

Built at K2's Team's request and targeted at the advanced-to-expert level rider, the Antidote is a unisex all-mountain snowboard that blurs the lines between freeride and freestyle. The Andtdote is responsive and slightly setback for hard-charging, all-mountain ripping, but also, you wouldn't be wrong to think this looks a lot like a freestyle snowboard. It has full, traditional camber and is symmetrically shaped, making it super responsive through turns and balanced in the air. Whether you're throwing freestyle tricks into the deep stuff, playfully slaying big mountain, or just attacking the park and the rest of the mountain with equal intensity, the Antidote is the perfect new alternative to the tired choice between directional beefcakes and super soft park twin boards. A quiver killer some might say.

SIDECUT

Linear Quadric Sidecut - A directional sidecut utilizing Quadratic curvature from the tip to the rear insert pack, then progressing into a linear section into the tail. This creates smooth catch-free turn initiation and powerful support through the turn exit without losing grip.

LAMINATES:

SINGLE IMPACT PLATES LAMINATES: Added underneath each binding area to improve compressive strength and prevent board breaks where it matters most. 

CARBON ARRAY 5: This power distribution technology provides total board control in every stance location. Widespread carbon stringers placed at the binding zone gather input from any stance width and all pressure angles. Rider input is then channeled to the opposing contact point for maximum board control. Offered in two levels of technology, 3 & 5.

PRE-CURED GLASS FIBERGLASS: USA-made pre-cured fiberglass optimizes glass to resin ratios to create the most consistent flex pattern possible. No other glass provides this level of stability and control.

XXX[Truded]™ Base – If there’s one thing we know about kids and groms, it’s that they can be hard on their gear and they’re never going to wax their snowboard. The XXX[TRUDED] base material is a high density extruded base material that is durable and low maintenance. The relative surface strength equals a base that will last longer and be more durable when jibbing and ripping around the mountain.
