K2 Women’s Cold Shoulder Snowboard 2023 K2

The K2 Cold Shoulder is a directional women’s all-mountain snowboard that is built to fuel your passion – naysayers be damned.

Designed for the intermediate to expert snowboarder, the K2 Cold Shoulder features a Combination Camber profile that puts camber in between the feet for snap and stability and a rocker profile outside the bindings for playful and intuitive turn initiation. A small amount of rise in the tail helps to keep the board playful and predictable, while a long-extended rocker profile in the tip helps to ease turn initiation and float in powder.

The Cold Shoulder is build upon our sustainably harvested Rhythm™ Core – which is comprised of Aspen and Paulownia, the world’s fastest-growing hardwood. This combination of materials was chosen to reduce weight in the tip and tail without sacrificing strength and performance. The Cold Shoulder is wrapped in ICG™ 10 Biax Fiberglass with tip-to-tail carbon stringers for dependable edge hold on long traverses or carving at any speed. Lastly, we use a Sintered 4000 base that holds wax extremely well and is built for outstanding speed and durability.

The Cold Shoulder is an all-mountain women’s snowboard that is built to do it all while giving you the confidence to show ‘em what’s what anywhere on the hill.

Profile: Directional Combination Camber

The best of both worlds. By blending both traditional Camber and Rocker profiles, Combination Camber gives you all the benefits of both; the pop and precision of camber, and the float and predictability of rocker.

Shape: Directional Tapered

Directional tapered boards excel in a pure mountain environment. The tail sinks in pow for better float and quicker turns.

A directional shape with a longer, softer nose and a shorter, stiffer tail get taken to the next level with a tapering design—which sees a wider nose tapering into a narrower tail. The advantages are two-fold: this shape not only sees mega-enhanced floatation with a surfy feel in deep powder, it also creates a faster turning snowboard which is noticeably more nimble and great for tree riding.

Flex: 7 (Scale 1 – 10)

Versatility at it’s finest. From the park to the peak and anywhere in between.

Base: Sintered 4000 Base

K2’s Sintered 4000 base absorbs wax deep into the material for relentless glide and unrivaled durability.
