PRODUCT DETAILS
PRODUCT DETAILS
Backcountry kickers, side hits galore, fresh cord -- the K2 Embassy has your back for wherever you take it. Engineered with versatility in mind, this directional all-mountain snowboard has become an instant classic amongst our staff and team riders. The heart of the Embassy snowboard is the BAP Core, consisting of Bamboo, Aspen, and Paulownia - sustainably harvested to provide a smooth feel and snappy flex that’s built to stand the test of time. The Combination Camber Profile adds just a bit of rocker to the nose and tail for a predictable feel in deep snow and smooth butters. We sandwich the core with ICG™ 10 Biax Fiberglass with tip-to-tail carbon stringers for high-speed stability and edge hold through choppy terrain and a little bit of taper for a classic feel that gets you out of your turns with silky precision.
- Sintered 4000 Base: Our Sintered 4000 base absorbs wax deep into the material for relentless glide and unrivaled durability.
- BAP Core: A tri-blend wood core harnesses the rebound, strength, and feel of sustainably harvested Bamboo, Aspen, and Paulownia timber species.
- ICG 10 Biax Carbon Glass: Integrating Carbon Fiber stringers that run the length of the board into our fiberglass increases the snap of the snowboard without adding unnecessary rigidity.
