Description
Note: The colour of the bases may be different from the picture displayed on the website, manufacturers combine colours randomly.
The K2 Afterblack snowboard is a versatile men's freestyle model, designed to tackle kickers, park features, and on-piste turns without having to switch boards throughout the day. Its twin shape and classic camber, enhanced by slight rocker at the tip, give it pop for jumps and enough grip to regain speed on hardpack.
What is the K2 Afterblack snowboard designed for?
The Afterblack is designed for versatile freestyle riding, from the park to groomed runs, with a distinct ease on jumps. The classic camber underfoot provides the pop and grip needed for landings and takeoffs, while the slight rocker at the tip makes pivoting easier and adds a bit of forgiveness. The BAP wood core—a blend of bamboo, poplar, and paulownia—and the ICG 20 reinforcement, a triaxial fiberglass reinforced with carbon stringers, provide responsiveness and stability at high speeds. The 4000 sintered base deeply absorbs wax for fast, long-lasting glide.
Who is the K2 Afterblack snowboard designed for?
This board is designed for regular riders who are comfortable on most terrain and make few technical mistakes, and who are looking for a model that pushes them toward a higher level while remaining fun. Its moderate stiffness and responsiveness place it at an intermediate to advanced level.

Stability
Does the Afterblack handle kickers well?
Yes. The classic camber between the feet and the carbon reinforcements give it pop for jumps and stability on landing, from small jumps to big air.
Can you ride the Afterblack switch?
Yes. Its perfectly symmetrical twin shape offers the same performance in both regular and switch, making spins and fakie riding easier.
How does the Afterblack perform on hardpack?
It holds up well. The camber underfoot and the ICG 20 triaxial fiber ensure solid grip and good edge-to-edge transition on groomed runs.
Does the Afterblack float in powder?
To a limited extent. The rockers at the tip help it lift a few centimeters, but its centered twin shape, without a stance setback, means it’s not a board designed for deep snow.
