Arbor Draft vs Arbor GPS

How they compare

Both target all mountain terrain, while the Arbor Draft leans more freestyle, while the Arbor GPS leans more freeride/powder. The Arbor Draft uses a twin shape while the Arbor GPS is directional. The Arbor Draft has a rocker profile (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel), while the Arbor GPS uses camber (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise). The Arbor GPS is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range. The Arbor Draft targets advanced riders while the Arbor GPS is aimed at expert riders. At $419.95 vs $629.95 MSRP, the Arbor Draft is the more budget-friendly option.
