Arbor Bryan Iguchi Pro vs Never Summer Proto FR

How they compare

Both target all mountain and freeride terrain, while the Arbor Bryan Iguchi Pro leans more powder. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. The Arbor Bryan Iguchi Pro has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Never Summer Proto FR uses cam_rock_cam_rock_cam (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). Both are rated 7/10 flex (stiff).
