2027 Arbor Draft Snowboard with Ride C-2 Bindings

The 2027 Arbor Draft with Ride C-2 Bindings is a true twin package for riders getting into park. It sits on the System Rocker platform, so the ride is loose and catch free, and the soft flex spins and pivots willingly while still holding an edge on groomers. Light, playful, and forgiving, it is built to get a progressing rider comfortable. We paired the board with the C-2 bindings because these well-rounded all-mountain bindings perform well in most conditions or terrain. A moderate flex makes them stiff enough to charge on groomers but not too demanding that you can’t take them in the park. Built with durable material to last season after season making them a great choice to pair with the board.

Why we like it:

Rocker and Grip Tech together keep the feel loose and forgiving but still find an edge when you need one. The soft flex makes presses and butters easy to learn and a lot of fun once they click.

Who it's for:

Beginners and progressing freestyle riders who want a forgiving, easy-spinning true twin. It is just as happy lapping the park, hitting street features, or messing around across the resort.

Highlights:

The parabolic rocker on the System Rocker platform sets the tone, catch free and happier buttering and spinning than locking you in. The true twin rides the same in both directions so switch feels natural from day one, and Grip Tech keeps enough bite underfoot to hold a clean edge. Arbor builds it on a Highland core of poplar and paulownia with biax glass over an extruded base, a light package that takes season after season of park abuse. The composite chassis provides durability without excessive weight, while Ride’s cored ankle straps hug the boot securely without pinching. The footbed is canted to reduce fatigue and promote better stance alignment.

Things to consider:

The soft flex and rocker that make it forgiving also give up stability and pop at speed or off bigger jumps. Once you're sending larger features you'll be ready for a stiffer cambered twin.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Drop a size for quicker spins and easier butters, or stay at your usual length for more stability and a bigger platform to land on.
