The Volume-Shifted All-Mountain Freestyle Machine
The K2 Almanac is a directional, volume-shifted snowboard designed for riders who crave versatility across the entire resort. Inspired by K2's Party Platter and Excavator models, the Almanac delivers a nimble, surfy ride without compromising stability or float. Its wider waist allows you to size down 4–10 cm from your usual board length, enhancing maneuverability while maintaining surface area for powder days.
Featuring a Combination Camber profile—camber underfoot with rocker at the tip and tail—the Almanac offers energetic turns, smooth transitions, and a forgiving ride. The BAP Core, a blend of bamboo, aspen, and paulownia, provides a lightweight yet snappy feel, while the Carbon Backbone adds pop and response. The Sintered 4000 base ensures durability and speed, making this board a reliable daily driver for intermediate to advanced riders.
