K2 / Peter Sutherland

Our collab with Colorado-based artist Peter Sutherland happened organically. The relationship was founded on snow. A few days in Interior British Columbia (Canada) riding deep snow, slapping high fives, and drinking coffees late into the night lead into conversation about working together. We wanted to work on the Instrument model in order to make this collection applicable to riders of all ages and abilities, and Peter had a concept up his sleeve. An ode to years past, a vibrant blast of color, and Peter’s own take on the classic K2 word mark rounded it all out.

When we saw the boards show up, we knew that we needed to ride these things. A quick trip to Brighton Resort just outside of Salt Lake City, Utah proved to be the perfect venue. We called up Peter, tapped in Caley Vanular, Parker Szumowski, and Caleb Flowers, and hit the resort. Three days of soft snow and some sunshine and we ended up with something a little special. Click play, and enjoy.

    ABOUT THE ARTIST

    Peter Sutherland is a lifelong snowboarder (and total hippie) that’s spent his life focusing on creating. Colorado raised and bouncing around the states as of recently, Peter’s work speaks for itself and is visible in all kinds of mediums - leaning on photography, graphic design, painting and installation pieces.

      ABOUT THE GRAPHIC

      “Our son Nima is 3 years old and I got really into making Play-Doh with him and he always requests for me to make things. He usually asks for a surfboard with fins, a man, or a monster truck. These ideas morphed into the van and the mushroom for the board graphics and a mash of several colors of Play-Doh rolled flat for the bases.”
