Great board.
Got one last year (165) after riding a Salomon Regulate for the year before.
If you've got big feet, you'll instantly notice the difference - much more responsive and holds an edge like it's on rails.
I was originally going to use the old board for Park/Tamworth stuff, but I found the Nemesis to be too good not to use (v. stable in the landings)
From what I seen this years model is a bit stiffer, so it looks like it's turning into more of a freeride board (last years did float through pow really nice - much better than the Regulate). Don't know how much difference it'll make.
Hope that helps.

Sounds good..
I’ve currently got a GNU CHB 167 wide and I wanted a thinner board so I was looking for a mid wide, but their doesn’t seem to be much difference between my GNU 27cm WW and the nemesis 165 26cm WW.
I am assuming the Nemesis will turn quicker because of its sidecut and hold an edge better\chatter less because its stiffer?

I've got the 162 (2mm riser) and it's an awesome board.
I came from a Bullet 164 - found this too stiff and unresponsive, but on trying the K2 my riding improved no-end (honest!)
I went for this for the same reasons you are stating - superb turning ability and holds an edge in all kinds of chop.
