K2 Excavator vs K2 Niseko Pleasures

How they compare

Both boards are designed for freeride riding. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. Both feature camber profiles — arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise. The K2 Excavator is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range.
