How they compare
Both boards are designed for all mountain and freestyle riding. The K2 Afterblack uses a twin shape while the Nidecker Gamma APX is directional twin. Both feature hybrid (rocker/camber) profiles — mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile. The Nidecker Gamma APX is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range.
