On 16, Nov 2019 | No Comments | In Updates | By Dana
Mount Everest is partnering with K2 Skis to connect ski enthusiasts and engineers at their Buckle-Up event on Saturday, November 23rd from 10am- 5pm.
Boot engineers from K2 headquarters at Vashon Island will be setting up shop in the Westwood store to talk one on one with skiers about boot tech while finding and fitting K2 boots for each attendee.
The events focuses on K2’s Freeskier’s Editor’s Pick elite Recon 130 boot but since boots fit differently for everyone, attendees will also be able to try on and learn more about the K2 BFC 100, Antham and others.
K2 will also running a raffle to give away a pair of Recon boots to one lucky skier and offering free beer (for those with proper ID) and pizza.
This is an all- day event, so stop in anytime to work with the engineers or just come grab a beer.
See you there, you don’t want to miss out!

On 14, Jan 2013 | No Comments | In Fresh Arrivals | By Justin
STAY WILD with K2 Snowboarding and Airblaster this season with this year’s Happy Hour. The K2 Happy Hour is a 100% FLATLINE twin board that is reshaped with K2’s new “Tweakend” technology. K2 just extended their Baseline Rocker all the way out to the absolute end of the board to create more rideable surface in the tip and tail of the board, giving the rider a more stable platform to press, butter, float, and stomp landings with. Add in K2’s “Ollie” bar and carbon web laminates the Happy Hour gets all the pop and snap needed to stab and grab down the entire mountain. Shop all 2013 K2 Snowboards.
See our top picks and more highlights from 2013 K2 Snowboard Boots and 2013 K2 Snowboard Bindings after the jump.

Step right up and feast your eyes on a “freakshow of product, shredding, innovation & good times!”
For their 20th anniversary, K2 Snowboarding is letting loose & running with a creepy carnival theme created by artist Mike Shine. This winter’s collection incorporates more of their innovative tech (Baseline, Harshmellow, Tweakback, Conda) that makes K2 stand out in the industry. K2 gives not to their roots in the backcountry by introducing K2 Backside – a line of gear including shovels, packs, probes & the Panoramic Split board that’s been 3 years in the making.
For guaranteed double-takes in the lift line, the K2 Happy Hour is your best bet. The entire 2012 team of riders collaborated to put together this one-of-a-kind board that’s ready to take on the entire mountain. It’s tapered silhouette and awesomely creepy graphics were designed by pro rider Danny Larsen and will definitely get you noticed this season. Transworld Snowboarding also gives it their nod of approval & awarded it a 2012 Good Wood award for Men’s Park boards over $400. Check out our 13 Questions with Danny Larsen to read what he had to say about the 2012 Happy Hour.
Freestyle riders will love the new Fastplant for it’s playful Jib Rocker base, added pop & indestructible Bambooyah core. As part of K2′s Artist Collaboration Series, the talented Don Pendleton created the board’s graphics in his bold, signature style that has been appearing on skateboard decks for over 10 years. The Fastplant also made Snowboard Magazine’s list of Platinum Picks and earned a Best of Test Award from Snowboarder Magazine.
The men’s Maysis is one good-looking snowboard boot. K2 addressed every detail in this freestyle boot – from the refined look of the leather outer to the customizable fit of Conda liner lacing & double Boa adjustments, your feet are guaranteed to look as good as they feel.
If your planning on doing any backcountry riding this winter, the K2 Backside Pilchuck Kit might be your new best friend. Inside the slim backpack are a packable rescue shovel & aluminum avalanche probe, just in case things get a little sketchy.
The K2 Fling was built for the go-anywhere girl who likes to explore every inch of the mountain. The versatile Flatline Rocker profile & twin shape make this freestyle board a blast to ride on all types of terrain. Factor in a sassy base graphic and this relationship will keep going strong run after run after run…
Ladies in search of a lightweight, easy-to-adjust boot that isn’t short on style will love this year’s Scene. Inner Conda lacing, Intuition Comfort fit 3D liners & Speedlacing provide a comfortable, secure fit while the Low-Pro outsole & softer flex keep you light on your toes.
