2027 Arbor Kuro Neko Snowboard + Sequoia Binding Package

The Arbor Kuro Neko x Sequoia package is for riders who want a freestyle setup with some claws. The Kuro Neko brings the fun stuff: true twin shape, full camber, loads of balance for switch riding and enough pop to keep jumps, side hits and park laps properly interesting. Then the Sequoia comes in underneath with a firmer, more responsive feel that gives the whole setup a lot more bite. You can still press it, spin it and throw it around, but when you lean into a carve, land heavy or start picking up speed, the bindings are right there with you holding it together.

That is what makes this such a good all-mountain freestyle package. It is playful where you want it and serious where you need it. Lap the park, carve the resort, chase side hits, ride fast, head into steeper terrain, then come back through switch just because you can. The Kuro Neko keeps the setup lively and creative, while the Sequoia gives it the support to stop feeling like a park-only toy. If you like your board fun and your bindings switched on, this is a very strong way to do it.
