When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Description

Why We Love The K2 Excavator Snowboard

Digging deep for turns? Not anymore! The K2 Excavator Snowboard does all the work for you. This incredible addition to K2's freeride lineup is built to conquer both deep powder and pristine corduroy. It's a powerhouse in any condition while still offering a forgiving feel, giving you confidence to take on steep and sketchy terrain at the resort.

The directional camber, shape, and setback stance keep you firmly in control, especially on powder days when that extra float is crucial. And thanks to pre-cambered Carbon Power Forks in the tail, you'll enjoy explosive pop and powerful speed out of every carve on groomer runs. No matter what the forecast brings – frozen and windblown or deep and powdery – the Excavator is always ready to dominate and provide endless fun.

Key Features:

  • Powerful freeride board for fast, confident fun in all conditions
  • Directional shape and setback stance boost stability and control
  • Camber between feet with slight rocker in the nose for added float
  • Mid-stiff flex provides power for deep pow and fresh groomers
  • Updated S1 core combines light and snappy woods for playful response
  • Carbon Power Forks in the tail ensure lively pop and response
  • Biax glass makes for smooth turn initiation and adds forgiveness
  • Wax-infused sintered base is fast, light, and holds wax like a champ
