K2 Manifest vs K2 Standard

How they compare

Both boards are designed for all mountain riding. They share a directional twin shape — mostly twin with a slight directional bias—versatile for all-mountain and some switch. The K2 Manifest 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 K2 Standard uses flat_rocker (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel). The K2 Manifest is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range. The K2 Manifest targets advanced riders while the K2 Standard is aimed at intermediate riders.
