K2 Afterblack vs K2 Mindbender 99 TI

How they compare

the K2 Afterblack leans more freestyle, while the K2 Mindbender 99 TI leans more all mountain. 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 Mindbender 99 TI uses hybrid (rocker/camber) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile).
