THE MEDIUM
This is the Medium Snowboard by K2.
Classic round tip and tail shapes are paired with a longer effective edge to help reduce swing weight and allow your 152cm board to feel more like a 155cm, essentially engaging a “cheat mode” that makes the board more maneuverable than ever. Our tri-blend BAP Core is wrapped in triaxial fiberglass and topped with our Carbon DarkWeb™ and Ollie Bar™, adding extra pop for ollies over slow-signs and speeding up edge-to-edge transitions.
On the graphic side, we were lucky enough to work with UK-based contemporary artist (and professional skateboarder) Nick Jensen. Using plaster, a mold of Jake’s body was created piece by piece, and then assembled vertically to create a statue. Nick shipped us a large-scale painting from London to Vancouver, British Columbia (where Jake calls home), and we photographed the statue in front of the painting for the Medium’s base, and a separate portion of the painting was shot for the graphic on the topsheet.
The end result is an absolute ripper of a freestyle snowboard that with a unique aesthetic for mobbing park, street, or ANY terrain the resort has to offer.

TECHNOLOGY
BAP CORE:
We’ve blended three species of renewable timber to assemble a core that’s strong, lightweight, and designed to enhance dampening without the addition of other materials.
TRIAXIAL GLASS:
A glass laminate with diagonal layers that adds torsional stiffness for increased stability and improved edge hold. The fibers three layers of fibers are woven at 45°, 45°, and 0°. This makes for a more responsive ride longitudinally and torsionally.
CARBON DARKWEB:
A carbon fiber lay-up that aids in energy transfer and stability, speeding up edge-to-edge transitions and keeping you in control in times of need.
OLLIE BAR:
Built in place in a pre-loaded cambered shape and placed between the binding inserts, the Ollie Bar™ silences the myth that rocker boards don’t have the same pop that cambered snowboards do.
SINTERED 4000 BASE:
Our Sintered 4000 base absorbs wax deep into the material for relentless glide and unrivaled durability.
2 X 4 INSERT BINDING MOUNTING:
2x4 Insert packs allow for secure binding mounting while optimizing stance-width options.
