Can you give us some feedback on that K2 Almanac?
The conditions were total mashed potatoes spring conditions, so can only speak to how it rode in that.
Replaces the party platter so I only sized down 3cm and rode the 157. It plowed thru the heavy slush without getting bucked around to much not damp or super lively but right in the middle.
Flex wise was middle of the road in-between the feet with good torsional flex. Nose was softer and easy to play around on, seemed to stiffen up in the tail
Easy to get on edge and could lay into it pretty good without over powering it . Not sure what the specs are on it for sidecut and taper but it rode switch with easy, even with the pinched in looking tail.
Had a decent amount of pop and spring out of the turn to it.
Guessing spec wise it's pretty similar to the outgoing party platter but with more camber and/or updated core materials to give it some more mustard while still being playful . (Demoed a PP a couple years back and this rode waaaay better IMO).
Overall I really liked it compared to some other boards I demoed over the 2 days and would like to get on it in some firmer conditions to see how it rides.
. Great shots and edit, good times from the looks of it.
