Sierra Says: The Del Rey is a true twin freestyle powerhouse from Arbor. Besides having an awesome graphic this year, the Del Rey has every you will need for tearing up the park. The twin shape makes riding switch and throwing spins a piece of cake, while the soft, symmetrical flex is essential for buttering out those presses in the street. However, this is not solely a park board. Features like...

Sierra Says: The Wasteland is a high-end freestyle board from Arbor. This board is great for just about every part of freestyle riding... cliff drops in the backcountry, huge transitions in the terrain park, throwing spins in the halfpipe, and even getting steezy on rails and boxes. Plus, because it is an Arbor board, it will ride the rest of the mountain super well too. The fact that it is a m...

Sierra Says: The Westmark is one of the softer park-oriented boards that Arbor makes. However, it still rides the mountain super well. This board is a directional twin, so it gives you the ability to ride switch like a champ, but will still generate plenty of pop and landing stability. Another great feature is the sintered base... this will give you the speed you need to clear the big table tops a...

Foot Shape: Average to Wide Flex: Rate 2 Boot Review by Mike: My first pair of snowboard boots were Burton Freestyles. These boots have come a long way since I pioneered them.

The best thing about the Burton Freestyle boots is the price: they are...

Sierra Says: The Burton Love is one of the most controversial boards out on the market today. Not only because of its graphics, but how much it kills in the park. It has a softer flex to help it lock into rails just the way you want, but a strong construction to keep if from falling to pieces when your jibbing everything on the mountain. A coalition board, this will be a rare board for sure. S...

Sierra says: Identical to the Stairmaster in every aspect except the graphic, the Scaremaster is a top shelf jib board for an unbeatable price.

Sierra says: Classic Stairmaster quality with upgraded features plus an original topsheet... It doesn’t get much better. The base is faster, the topsheet is stronger, and the board performs freestyle tricks, rather than only jib/rail tricks, better than the regular Stairmaster.
