Arbor Relapse vs Never Summer Harpoon

How they compare

Both target all mountain terrain, while the Arbor Relapse leans more freestyle, while the Never Summer Harpoon leans more freeride. The Arbor Relapse uses a twin shape while the Never Summer Harpoon 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 Never Summer Harpoon 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).
