The all new K2 Isolator Splitboard takes the Excavator and hacks it down the middle for backcountry duty. That's great news, because the Excavator is one of our favorite boards from the last few years. The Isolator matches the shape and profile - fat nose, slight swallowtail, smooth al dente flex pattern blending camber underfoot with rocker up front - and pairs it with a featherweight Paulownia Tour-Lite Core that keeps you moving and grooving on the skin track.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Directional Camber Profile  The most responsive camber profile in the line features camber running from in front of the front foot to the tail of the board with slight early rise in the nose. This gives the rider the most precision and control possible in any terrain while still floating effortlessly in the deep stuff.

Flex

Flex Rating  7 (1 Playful - 10 Precise)

Shape

Volume Shift™  Volume is moved from the tips and tails of traditional snowboard shapes and placed underfoot where it can be better controlled. This makes a wider, shorter design that maintains the same float and stability of a traditional board, but increases mobility and maneuverability. More slashing and better lines in the trees are now a reality.

Core

Paulownia Tour-Lite Core  Strong responsive, and 500g lighter than average core weight.

Laminates

ICG™ 10 Biaxial Carbon Glass  Integrating tip-to-tail carbon fiber stringers into fiberglass layups ensures a smooth power release in and out of turns while increasing pop, liveliness, and longevity of the snowboard without adding unnecessary rigidity.

Base

Wax-Infused Sintered 4001 Base  Built using the hardest and fasted sintered base material on the market, the Wax-Infused Sintered 4001 Base holds wax longer than other sintered bases for smoother, longer lasting glide.

Topsheet

SnoPhobic Topsheet  Textured snow-shedding top sheet technology.

Additional Features

Karakoram Clips  USA Made Tip and Tail Clips for Unmatched Security.
