GNU Banked Country C3 vs K2 Embassy

How they compare

Both boards are designed for all mountain and freeride and powder riding.

Both feature hybrid (camber/rocker) profiles — mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile. The GNU Banked Country C3 is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range. The GNU Banked Country C3 targets expert riders while the K2 Embassy is aimed at advanced riders.
