K2 Sports
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- K2 makes a damn good board these days.
- K2 - a fun racing/endurance mountain climbing game.
- Manual -> Kinu, J Ultra, K2 for medium and dark roasts, and for medium or light then K Ultra, K6
- K2 is the absolute cheapest I’d personally go
- In my experience as a bigger guy, K2 boards are somewhat unbreakable compared to other brands.
Cons
- unfortunately the skis themselves broke, but that’s K2 for you.
- Based on influences I was thinking of a K2 but would I be better off saving for a Behringer Wave (or even a VS mini) for a complementary sound palette.
- I also usually get some midfoot pain from the rubbing on the shell of my K2s. The way they designed the liner and shell integration eliminates that, it's a much more natural fit.
- Crazy to spend that much money and still end up with crap K2 and Faction products.
- I barely touch the K2. I always tell myself to use it more, but for some reason it never really amazed me. Will probably sell it once the Behringer Enigma comes out.

The K2 is probably more capable, but also a bit slower (IMHO) to operate. It has a wider range, but that makes it easier to sound bad. By default, it sounds way dirtier than the Edge, but that's not a pro nor a con.

The K2 can do if you don't mind the internal adjustment.
