Named for its intended use, the K2 Excavator specializes in digging deep trenches on groomers and displacing powder after a storm cycle. Built around a wider perimeter with a dual-radius sidecut, the Excavator is unisex in approach. Its wider profile allows riders to size down around 4 to 10 cm from their usual length without sacrificing performance, while its extra width and 20mm taper benefit riders with larger feet by eliminating toe and heel drag on deep carves and long traverses. A combination of a smooth-flexing S1 Core and tip-to-tail ICG 10 Biax Glass keeps the board responsive and damp underfoot, while K2's pre-cambered Carbon Power Fork delivers an explosive energy boost in and out of turns.
Product Details
Riding Style: Confident Carving & Powder
Rider Ability: Intermediate to Expert
Profile: Directional Camber
Shape: Directional (20mm Taper)
Flex/Response: 6/10
Volume Shift: Shifts surface area from the tip and tail to the waist of the board, reducing swing weight and heel/toe drag while allowing riders to downsize 4–10 cm from their standard board length.
S1 Core: Constructed from Bamboo, Aspen, and Paulownia to maximize durability and damping underfoot. Tip-to-tail Bamboo stringers add snap, lightweight Paulownia reduces swing weight, and Aspen/Bamboo placed at 30° angles underfoot supercharge edge-to-edge response and strength.
ICG 10 Biax Glass: Integrates tip-to-tail carbon fiber stringers directly into fiberglass to increase pop and snap without adding unnecessary rigidity.
Carbon Power Fork: Features a pre-cambered carbon inlay in the tail to maximize energy transfer in and out of turns while adding extra pop for takeoffs and landings.
Wax Infused Sintered 4001 Base: Built using Crown's hardest and fastest base material to hold wax longer for a durable, high-speed glide across all snow conditions.
