Yes 420 vs Yes Optimistic

How they compare

the Yes 420 leans more powder, while the Yes Optimistic leans more all mountain. 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 Yes 420 is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the stiff range.
