Im stoked dude it sounds like the perfect board: Jib specific, all mountain machine, edge hold, powder and steep capability, and tons of pop. Cant get much better than that!

What kind of edge bevel would you folks recommend for this board? Also if I detune between the magnetraction edges for rails and boxes would edge hold be severely comprimised? Perhaps I should just go with a 1-2 deg bevel. I ride mainly park but do like to hit some steeper terrain . What kind of edge bevel would you folks recommend for this board?

Now I know what kind of board they must have had and sure would like to get one. Thanks so much for the rocker technology and the eco friendly product you provide, the designs and artwork on your boards surpass what is out there!!!

Critical edge hold and all the benefits of rocker.

Any others in the lineup. Am looking for an all mountain board thats good in the steeps and deep such as Mott's Canyon at Heavenly, Casper Bowl at Jackson etc. Looks like you have the Draft mapped for mainly park. How does the rockered technology do off the trails? I take it the Draft is the only rockered board. Any others in the lineup.

There is no doubt about that. Arbor has also been an innovative leader in eco-technology. We encourage other companies to take our lead and use and even improve on our technology and I believe the designers at Mervin feel the same way. It's of vital importance in the world of innovation to have companies tweak on and improve upon technology created by other companies. It's called the progression or evolution of products. If you are the owner or manager of a shop or even just work their, I'd hope you'd be more open minded. If you only think people should support and buy Lib Tech then why do you carry other brands? We hope you'll give the Draft a try before you make up your mind. The folks at SIA and Snow Press did and they gave it their "Innovation of the Year Award" and the folks at Outside Magazine did and their testers decided it was the best snowboard of the year and gave it their "Gear of the Year Award." Also, I happen to really like Lib Tech and was a loyal rider of the TRice board for several years. Last year, when I started working with Arbor, I was actually concerned about giving up my Lib but after I rode the new Draft I was sold. The technologies are similar but there are substantial differences. As for the graphics comment, we'll just have to agree to disagree on that one. We feel that this is by far the strongest graphic representation for Arbor. Hello there Carbon Scooby,

Too bad the graphics suck so hard on the women's boards. Best looking one is the Eden and it's the bottom of the barrel. My wife was really interested in a Push until she saw this years lineup. Horrid. Especially compared to their previous offerings. Boo Arbor. Love the move toward a better rocker tech. Too bad the graphics suck so hard on the women’s boards.
