Arbor Satori vs Nitro Alternator x Volcom

How they compare

Both target all mountain and freeride terrain, while the Arbor Satori leans more powder. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. Both feature camber profiles — arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise. The Nitro Alternator x Volcom is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range.
