Snowboards comparison — 2023-2024 season
Compare two models
How they compare
the K2 Afterblack leans more freestyle, while the K2 Dreamsicle leans more all mountain. The K2 Afterblack uses a twin shape while the K2 Dreamsicle is directional. The K2 Afterblack has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the K2 Dreamsicle uses rocker (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel). The K2 Afterblack is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range.
