The Curated Take
By the Expert Community
I personally believe that the 2023 K2 Afterblack is a go to board for anyone who finds themselves in the park or in the streets more often than anywhere else. The traditional camber medium flex board has great pop, and an extremely fast sintered base that holds wax quite well. The board has rode great 100+ days on snow and concrete. Keep the board in good shape and it can deliver as a perfect daily quiver.
Ideal for
- park, street riders.
- beginner to advanced level rider.
- extremely fast sinterted base.
Not ideal for
- upon riding the board became more soft over the days
- careful on the tips, as the construction is capped.
The K2 Afterblack Snowboard is the perfect choice for intermediate-to-advanced level snowboarders who want to take their freestyle game to the next level. This premium snowboard is designed for night missions, wall rides, and giant airs, giving you the confidence to push your limits and go for that one more go. With its Combination Camber Profile, tri-blend BAP Core, tip-to-tail triaxially woven fiberglass and Carbon DarkWeb™, and Sintered 4000 base, this board delivers a playful feel while still being able to hold speed and track straight into the next feature.
Key Features:
- Tri-blend BAP Core: bamboo, aspen, and paulownia woods deliver snap/rebound while damping vibration.
- Tip-to-tail triaxially woven fiberglass & Carbon DarkWeb™: stability & edge control for popping off lips/sending big side hits.
- Sintered 4000 Base: fast & durable; soaks up wax ensuring enough speed to send you well past knuckle/down to a sweet spot in landing.
- Australian artist Marcus Dixon's graphic design: clean tip/tail with plenty of real estate for sticker placement; classic sequence layout between feet pays tribute to print magazines/ads of years past.

Very Helpful and Knowledgeable
5 /5
I had many questions, and after a few days we finally got stuff figured out. Throughout the whole process he was very helpful and knowledgeable which is defiantly better then going to facebook marketplace. I tried that, but the information from an expert just helps much more. I would defiantly recommend Ryan to other customers.

I very much enjoyed working with Leo on my ski purchase. I had done some research on my own but had not settled on a particular ski. I came across Curated by accident and did not know I would be connected to a live person - and someone who is quite knowledgeable as well! Leo listened to what I was looking for and put together some recommendations personalized for me. I was able to review these on my own schedule and later discuss my questions with Leo to finalize my selection. I’ll definitely recommend Leo and Curated to friends and will be back for my next pair of skis!

I was super skeptical of this website at first I assumed the suggestions were just from an AI generated bot, but Leo is definitely a real human and a knowledgeable one at that! He knew the area i ski in maine and made suggestions based off my skill level and northeast conditions. Can’t wait to take my new gear out in a few months!

I wanted to talk about how happy I am with my experience here at Curated and with my expert Bernard. Bernard was very helpful and knowledgeable about the equipment I was looking for, and provided different ideas on how I can make my skiing experience even more enjoyable! Bernard really is an amazing Ski Expert and I will definitely buy new gear from him from now on! Thanks Bernard!

Having some experience snowboarding but never owning my own equipment, I had lots of questions and needed a lot of help. I’m so glad I found curated and Josh! He was able to educate me and guide me through the process…and made sure I got a super deal. He always responded promptly and was patient with my never ending questions. All the gear is perfect, we can’t wait to hit the mountain!

I was skeptical about buying ski gear online, but with Michael's expertise and input it worked out great. No only is Michael super knowledgeable, but he really took the time to understand our requirements and match us with the right gear. Never any pressure, always patient, helpful, and super responsive. I would definitely recommend working with him.

Frankie is A1, top notch and his ratings and reviews speaks for itself. I went to 3 different ski shops in my area and I was sized wrong, told certain brands were high quality when they weren’t, would have been paying to much and just put on a bad path overall. I’m glad I stumbled upon Curated. I threw so many questions at Frankie and he welcomed and answered them all. I needed a new board, boots and bindings and I got a great deal. Got a 2024 Libtech Coldbrew with Now IPO Bindings and 32 boots for less than my local ski shops offered for Never Summer, K2, etc., packages. I can’t wait to get on the mountain! Thanks again Frankie!

I was very nervous about buying my first pair of skis as they can be quite expensive and you want to get them right, however, as soon as I found curated and was paired with Hayden all the nervousness turned into pure excitement. Hayden took the time to explain, answer questions, and pick the perfect curation for me. It made choosing skis a fun process rather than a stressful one. I highly recommend Hayden and I can't wait to hit the slopes with my new skis!

I’ve been looking for some pretty specific skis and Michael was able to help me! As a female sometimes I don’t feel like I’m taken seriously when I’m at a ski shop (I’ve tried many) and mike made it so easy! He answered my questions, was able to price match Evo, and was so approachable! Honestly thankful for people like him in the ski industry. Thank you!!
