Orton Snowboard Boot - 2026
“Built from the ground up with feedback the K2 pro team, the Orton Snowboard Boots deliver next-generation performance for riders chasing high-consequence terrain and demanding conditions. From the bootpack to the pillow line, the Orton’s innovative construction and locked-in fit give us the confidence to ride with intention, no matter what the mountain throws our way. A one-piece rubber lower shell provides unmatched waterproofing and all-day warmth, while the dual-zone BOA Fit System ensures customizable lockdown that fits a wide range of foot shapes. The Intuition SpaceHeater liner molds to our foot and keeps things toasty with recycled coffee mesh, while Harshmellow Eco cushioning smooths out harsh landings and chattery terrain. The Vibram V5 outsole keeps us gripped whether we’re scrambling bootpacks or cruising icy parking lots, and the lace cover with gaiter hook adds a final layer of weather protection.”

Passport Snowboard - 2026
“The Passport is ideal for intermediate to advanced riders who want one board for it all—powder days, groomer laps, and freeride exploration. It’s perfect for those who value stability, easy float, and versatility in every zone of the resort. What It’s For Powder, Groomers, and High-Speed Carving: This board is built for freeride performance with an all-mountain edge. Its tapered directional shape enhances float in deep snow, while the camber-heavy profile keeps it locked in for long, powerful turns on hardpack and mixed conditions. Why We Like It Balanced Float, Edge Hold, and Snap: We like the Passport because it brings freeride confidence without sacrificing fun. The A1 Core keeps the board lightweight and strong, carbon stringers add pop and edge hold, and the volume-shifted waist makes sizing down easy without losing stability. With a fast sintered base, it stays quick no matter the snow.”

K2 Alchemist Snowboard 157 Cm
“A hard-charging, directional stick, this K2 snowboard is ideal for skilled freeriders. It's stiff for solid edge hold while still being easy to turn. SpaceGlass™ reduces weight and minimizes chatter.”

Gateway Snowboard - 2026
“this is a great board for any new rider or for a beginner looking to progress quickly. Its soft flex and rocker shape help make this board very easy to control, especially at lower speeds. Its very easy to roll edge to edge with and will not catch an edge as likely as a camber board would. If you want a soft flexing, approachable board that won't beat you or your wallet up, definitely consider the K2 Gateway. If you feel you are more than a beginner and want a board with more pop to it without upping the price tag, get the Gateway Pop.”

Commonwealth Snowboard - 2026
“This board is for snowboarders who ride aggressively and want a deck that delivers precision, power, and confidence across big terrain. Best for advanced riders who like to carve hard, charge steep lines, and float pow without sacrificing control on mixed resort snow.”

Antidote Snowboard - 2026
“The Antidote is built for riders who want a stiff, powerful board that can keep up with hard-charging freeride lines but still feels agile enough for freestyle creativity. Best suited for confident snowboarders who like to mix technical descents with playful hits, it’s a directional twin tuned for pushing limits.”

Special Effects Snowboard - 2026
“Who It’s For Intermediate to Advanced Riders Chasing Powder and Freeride Lines: This board is for riders who prioritize surfy float on storm days but don’t want to sacrifice stability and edge hold when the snow firms up. If you thrive on deep powder slashes, tight tree runs, and playful freeride lines, the Special Effects has the shape and construction to keep you stoked. What It’s For Powder-Focused Freeride with All-Mountain Versatility: The Special Effects is designed as a volume-shifted, directional powder board with a 3D contoured nose that planes above deep snow and transitions smoothly into turns. Thanks to its medium-stiff flex, carbon-loaded response, and rocker profile, it handles chop and variable snow without flinching, while the sintered base keeps things fast from first chair to last lap. Why We Like It Volume-Shifted Shape, Surfy Float, Carbon Control: We like the Special Effects because it takes a creative approach to powder riding. By shifting the volume and adding a contoured nose, it can be sized down 5–10cm shorter than your usual deck without losing float. The Bambooyah core and ICG 10 Carbon Glass keep it light, strong, and reactive, while Hybritech sidewalls add long-lasting durability. It’s surfy when you want it to be, yet composed enough to carve groomers on the way back to the lift.”

Waive Snowboard Boot - 2026 - Men's
“The traditional lacing system locks us into a precise, custom fit, while K2’s BOA Fit System-powered walk mode quickly increases range of motion for efficient hiking and touring. Inside, the thermo-moldable Intuition Pro Foam liner conforms to our feet, enhanced by a heat-reflecting SpaceHeater and odor-resistant S’Cafe mesh for warmth and freshness. Vibram V5 outsoles with partially recycled rubber provide traction for bootpacks, and Harshmellow cushioning smooths out chatter when conditions get rough. From dawn patrol missions to technical freeride descents, the Waive boot is built to handle the demands of true backcountry exploration.”

Lockjaw Alu/EVA Adjustable Ski Poles
“Adjustable poles are simple and in my opinion just need to be durable. These have worked great and adjust easily. I was able to easily remove to the straps as I don't want them in the backcountry.”

Mindbender 85 Ski - 2024 - Women's
“Insane price on a quality intermediate ski that can also be used by athletic beginners! I have demoed the Mindbender and I think that its shape is perfect - more rockered than a race-style "beginner ski" that catches edges easily, but traditional enough to carve well. K2 has always been a forward-looking brand, but I find the Mindbender to actually ski like a throwback, so there are no surprises on trail.”

Mindbender 89Ti Ski - 2026
“Given that this is competing with the Mantra 88, Anomoly 88, M Pro 94 Ti, Stormrider 95, and MX88, but it costs way less and performs nearly as well, I do think this deserves to be here. I reviewed this ski on video (ask if interested), and it is a classic all-mountain ski with a perfect frontside shape. Even though it is a K2, it actually skis very traditionally due to the shape of the titanal in the tail; it carves very well and is predictable.”

BFC 100 Ski Boot - 2026 - Men's
“The best value boot for folks who need a higher volume/wider boot and who seek comfort as a priority. The Big Freakin' Comfort model from K2, like all K2 boots, punches above its price point in performance and this 100 flex model will work for everyone from low intermediates to lighter weight experts.”

Power Composite Ski Poles

K2 Men's Mindbender 120 BOA Ski Boots 27.5 Mondo
“Very lightweight for their flex, with tech inserts for backcountry skinning when needed and a 50 degree range of motion in walk mode. MultiFit last means that the standard 100mm width can be adjusted +- 4mm to avoid fit problems. GripWalk soles and BOA fit adjustment on the lower shell.”

Revolve TW Ski Boot - 2026
“The Tom Wallisch pro model freestyle boot from K2 that hearkens back to the classic Full Tilt boots before K2 bought that company. A 100 flex is medium (but for park boots on the high end), and, along with the 3D wrap liner and cabrio format, yield a very comfortable freestyle boot that is easy to get on and off and won't kill your feet. A medium-narrow 99mm last; get the Henrik Harlaut model for a wider 102mm last.”
