Camber Profile
- System Camber (Parabolic Camber) – A highly responsive full-camber profile shaped with Arbor’s Parabolic Profiling, reducing camber toward the tip and tail for smoother initiation, powerful edge hold, and energetic pop without the twitchiness of traditional camber.
Flex
- Flex Rating: 6–7 – A balanced, all-mountain flex that provides stability for steeper terrain while staying forgiving enough for progression.
Shape
- Directional Twin – A versatile shape that rides naturally in both directions while offering extra stability and control when pointed downhill.
Grip Tech
- Grip Tech 2.25 mm – Heel and toe contact points formed from natural sidecut intersections provide extra edge hold, creating a more ergonomic, reliable way to grip firm snow.
Fenders
- 3° Fenders – 3D shaping lifts the contact points for smoother, catch-free turn initiation without reducing the power and pop of full-length camber.
Core
- Highland II Core – A lighter, more responsive 10/20 blend of poplar and paulownia engineered for durability, smooth flex, and all-day versatility.
Laminates
