K2 Dreamsicle vs K2 Niseko Pleasures

How they compare

the K2 Dreamsicle leans more all mountain, while the K2 Niseko Pleasures leans more freeride. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. The K2 Dreamsicle has a rocker profile (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel), while the K2 Niseko Pleasures uses camber (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise). The K2 Niseko Pleasures is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range.
