Description
Sage Kotsenburg's Secret Weapon for Exploring New Terrain
Designed with Sage Kotsenburg to conquer pillowy forests and technical terrain, the Sky Pilot is your ticket to unrestricted riding. Its generous width and balanced medium flex give you the freedom to pivot and release through anything. K2's 3DContour spoon lifts your contact points for effortless float in deep snow, while the Carbon Y-Beam delivers snap and stability exactly where you need it—all without cramping your style with rigid torsion. Ride loose, ride smart, ride natural.
K2 are firm believers that everyone should be able to experience how amazing the mountains are, the Sky Pilot was designed with an all-gender approach - with scaled sizing, flex profiles, and waist widths to accommodate a smaller foot.
For the best experience, downsize 3-5cm from your normal snowboard length, thanks VolumeShift™️.

Tech Specs
3D Base Contour – 3mm of 3D contour (spoon) that gradually blends from the running surface deflects soft snow, eases turn initiation, and remains predictable on hardpack.
Volume Shift™ - We reduce swing weight and toe/heel drag by shifting surface area from the tip and tail to the waist of the snowboard. Downsize from 4-10 cm from your usual snowboard length.
Wax Infused Sintered 4001 Base - Built using the hardest and fastest Sintered base material on the market from Crown, the Wax-Infused Sintered 4001 holds wax longer than other Sintered bases for a smoother glide, longer.
S1 Core - The smooth-flexing cousin to our A1 core, our S1 Core is designed to be damp underfoot and stronger than hell. Constructed from Bamboo, Aspen, and Paulownia, the S1 Core lets each wood do what it’s best for. Tip-to-tail Bamboo stringers add snap, durability, and damping underfoot and are balanced out by lightweight paulownia in the midbody, tip, and tail help to reduce swing weight. Underfoot, Aspen and Bamboo are placed at 30 ° angles to increase strength, supercharge the edge-to-edge response, and increase the pressure distribution along the edge.
Triax Glass - A fiberglass weave intersecting at three angles provides extra torsional stiffness and overall strength.
Carbon Y Beam™ - Increased power-transfer from underfoot to the front contact points helps increase edge hold and ensures the nose remain stable when it get's a bit hairy. Dual carbon strips from the back foot helps the Sky Pilot remain back-seat stable, and allows for a more "pivot" or "kick turn" feel for riding pillows or tighter trees.
