Arbor Draft vs Never Summer Proto Synthesis

How they compare

Both boards are designed for all mountain and freestyle riding. They share a twin shape — same shape at nose and tail; rides switch naturally. Common for park and freestyle. 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 Never Summer Proto Synthesis uses hybrid (camber/rocker) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). Both are rated 5/10 flex (medium).
