So the original feel is maintained, but its switch capacities are stepped up. Unlike the jib-specific performance of the Artifact, the Graft is a twin with a little more pop for a diversity of pleasures—sure it likes handrails, but it also likes big jumps, transitions, cliff drops, and pillow lines.
