Arbor A-Frame vs Ride Deep Fake

How they compare

Both target all mountain and powder terrain, while the Ride Deep Fake leans more freeride. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. The Arbor A-Frame has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Ride Deep Fake uses hybrid (rocker/camber) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). Both are rated 7/10 flex (stiff). At $619.95 vs $699.95 MSRP, the Arbor A-Frame is the more budget-friendly option.
