K2 Afterblack vs Sims Fakie

How they compare

Both boards are designed for all mountain and freestyle riding. The K2 Afterblack uses a twin shape while the Sims Fakie is directional. The K2 Afterblack has a hybrid (rocker/camber) profile (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile), while the Sims Fakie uses camber (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise). The Sims Fakie is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range.
