K2 Broadcast vs K2 Excavator

How they compare

the K2 Broadcast leans more all mountain, while the K2 Excavator leans more freeride. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. The K2 Broadcast has a hybrid (rocker/camber) profile (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile), while the K2 Excavator uses camber (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise). Both are rated 7/10 flex (stiff).
