K2 Party Platter vs Nitro Dropout

How they compare

Both target all mountain terrain, while the Nitro Dropout 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. Both feature hybrid (rocker/camber) profiles — mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile. Both are rated 5/10 flex (medium).
