K2 Passport vs Sims UAP

How they compare

Both boards are designed for all mountain and freeride riding. The K2 Passport uses a directional shape while the Sims UAP is directional twin. The K2 Passport 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 UAP uses camber (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise). Both are rated 7/10 flex (stiff). At $549.95 vs $620 MSRP, the K2 Passport is the more budget-friendly option.
