Arbor Draft vs Salomon Abstract
Snowboards comparison — 2024-2025 season
Compare two models
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 Salomon Abstract uses hybrid (rocker/camber) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). Both are rated 5/10 flex (medium). At $419.95 vs $549.95 MSRP, the Arbor Draft is the more budget-friendly option.
