Arbor Draft

Arbor’s take on the rocker revolution - the new Draft is designed around The System, a fusion of interdependent technologies that support jib-specific performance. Make no mistake; rocker boards represent a new approach to how snowboards function. Rocker shapes require a total rethinking of long held ideas on technologies and how they interact. To that end, we offer The System.
Grip-Tech Sidecut: an unblended progressive tri-radial sidecut design that creates additional contact points directly under-foot for significantly improved control.
Street Rocker: a rocker profile based on a stretched parabolic arc that further improves control, while providing a more uniform running surface nose to tail.
Rocker Specific Flex:a rocker specific flex pattern designed to address how riders experience board flex when shredding a de-cambered design.
Inlaid Power Spine: a structural spine of wood that counters the effect of de-cambering to maintain pop, while not hindering the rocker benefit of easy spins, presses, and butters.
Robusto Tips: a wider, more blunt shape and flat kick design that meets the needs of a rocker nose and tail’s more specialized role as platforms for presses and butters.
True-Twin: a twin-tip shape that encourage riders to equalize their stance and more effectively activate the Grip-Tech contact points and Street Rocker design.
Mercy Edges: softer bronze edges that deliver a less catchy ride, while balancing the active edge performance created by Street Rocker and Grip Tech.
Sumo-Stance: an expanded 2x4 insert system that provides a much wider stance (Max: 25.20"/64cm) allowing riders to size down their boards for classic rocker performance.
All sizes in stock now along with the rest of the 2009/2010 Arbor lineup!
