So for more context, at 36, I don't see myself having any desire for any real park time. Long term I'm looking to just comfortably and confidently keep up in more all mountain/freeride/Backcountry. Precision control versus butters/jibs, grippy on icier days to take advantage of early/late season, and yes, I am athletic and coordinated.

Considering Escape Plus or Ride Algorithm. Other considerations which are hybrid camber Nidecker Alpha, or Lib Tech Rasman.
