Arbor Satori vs K2 Almanac

How they compare

Both boards are designed for all mountain and freeride and powder riding. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. The Arbor Satori has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the K2 Almanac uses hybrid (rocker/camber) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). Both are rated 5/10 flex (medium). The Arbor Satori targets expert riders while the K2 Almanac is aimed at advanced riders. At $559.95 vs $599.95 MSRP, the K2 Almanac is the more budget-friendly option.
