I tend to like a board that can do a lot, because I’ve got a bit of ADHD out there on the hill. Side hits? Love ‘em. Weird transfers through the park? Live for them. Powder? Absolutely. The Arbor Draft can handle pretty much everything. Here’s how.
Reverse camber is just fun. It jibs the jibs, turns quickly and effortlessly, and in deep snow, it floats. Effortlessly. It’s a great choice (and if you prefer camber, there’s a Draft with that bend, too). Now, on to what’s great about the Draft’s shape. The mid-wide design means you can ride it a bit shorter, because it has as much surface area as a slightly longer board. The flat kicks on the shortened tip and tail get on plane quickly in deeper snow and are less likely to hang up while getting crafty in the park. When it comes to groomers, because who doesn’t like slicing up a good groomer, with mellow tip and tail blends thanks to its stubby shape, the Draft eases its way through the snow when you’ve got it on edge. It is in every way efficient, and pair it with the matching Boss Dog Edt. Hemlock binding, with the softest ankle-enveloping heel strap and simplistic, lightweight design, and you’ve got yourself one hell of a go-anywhere, do-anything setup. – Mike Basher
