Arbor Terrapin vs Burton The Throwback Pow Surfer
Verdict
The Arbor Terrapin is a highly recommended powder board for advanced riders. It is designed by Brian Eguchi and built on the System Rocker. It is important to keep the board waxed for optimal performance. The Terrapin is a great option for those looking for a powder board in 2019.
Verdict
The Burton The Throwback Pow Surfer is a well-constructed board that is best suited for powder on gentle slopes. It is not designed for hard snow and does not ride like a traditional snowboard due to the lack of bindings and metal edges. However, it is a fun board for straight runs and is suitable for riders of all ages. The rope handle on the nose works well for scrubbing speed on steep terrain. While the origins of the snowboard are debated, the Snurfer, created by Sherman Poppen, is often credited as the precursor to the modern snowboard.
