Yes 2020 vs Yes Optimistic

How they compare

Both boards are designed for powder riding. The Yes 2020 uses a twin shape while the Yes Optimistic is directional. The Yes 2020 has a other profile (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile), while the Yes Optimistic uses camber (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise). The Yes Optimistic is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the stiff range.
