Nitro Dinghy vs K2 Excavator

[u/radryannn]

Looking for a powder freeride board to pair with my dancehaul that just doesn’t cut it for the heavy PNW/ tracked pow I ride or the summit lift higher speed runs. Looking for something that floats well and can charge through chop and won’t just come out on pow days

[u/brilow]

I have dancahaul / almanac / excavator. Almanac is just a more stable Dancehaul. Excavator really cuts through the crud though it’s super stable. I’m primarily in light snow though.

[u/spacemanvt → u/brilow]

Is it worth having both an excavator and almanac?

[u/brilow → u/spacemanvt]

I think so, they ride so different even though on paper they’re comparable dimensions.

[u/spacemanvt → u/brilow]

does the excavator do better in pow than the almanac?

[u/brilow → u/spacemanvt]

Yeah especially if it’s heavier. Blower they’re the same. Almanac is plenty fine in pow though

[u/spacemanvt → u/brilow]

Ah makes sense. I got a bunch of freeride boards, BSOD, flagship, alternator, so I wanted something fun to mess around with.

hope I like it!

Almanac would be a good addition. It’s super fun.
