Arbor Formula vs Arbor Verado

How they compare

Both boards are designed for all mountain riding. The Arbor Formula uses a directional twin shape while the Arbor Verado is directional. The Arbor Formula has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Arbor Verado uses rocker (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel). The Arbor Verado is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range. The Arbor Formula targets intermediate riders while the Arbor Verado is aimed at advanced riders. At $399.95 vs $579.95 MSRP, the Arbor Formula is the more budget-friendly option.
