Arbor Relapse vs Jones Frontier

How they compare

Both target all mountain and freestyle terrain, while the Jones Frontier leans more freeride. The Arbor Relapse uses a twin shape while the Jones Frontier is directional. The Arbor Relapse has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Jones Frontier 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).
