K2 Afterblack vs K2 Lil Kat

How they compare

Both boards are designed for freestyle riding. They share a twin shape — same shape at nose and tail; rides switch naturally. Common for park and freestyle. The K2 Afterblack has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the K2 Lil Kat uses rocker (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel). The K2 Afterblack is noticeably stiffer at 6/10 versus the K2 Lil Kat's 2/10, suiting more aggressive riding.
