K2 Afterblack vs Ride Benchwarmer

How they compare

Both boards are designed for all mountain and freestyle riding. They share a twin shape — same shape at nose and tail; rides switch naturally. Common for park and freestyle. Both feature hybrid (rocker/camber) profiles — mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile. The Ride Benchwarmer is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range. At $539.95 vs $549.95 MSRP, the K2 Afterblack is the more budget-friendly option.
