Compare two models
How they compare
Both target all mountain terrain, while the Weston Hatchet leans more powder. The Arbor Element uses a directional twin shape while the Weston Hatchet is directional. The Arbor Element has a rocker profile (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel), while the Weston Hatchet uses hybrid (rocker/camber) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). The Weston Hatchet is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range. The Arbor Element targets intermediate riders while the Weston Hatchet is aimed at advanced riders.
