Arbor A-Frame Snowboard 2012

Bring out the big guns with the Arbor A-Frame Snowboard. A big-mountain performer through and through, the A-Frame features a Directional shape, camber flex and superior Shaman core. Locked and loaded, the A-Frame offers superior on-edge performance, powerful control and amazing stability at high speeds.
Rocker Type
Traditional camber shape for maximum edge control and ollie power.
Flex
Medium-Stiff flex
Shadow flex is a slight tapered thinning of the core profile between the bindings and improves: turn and spin initiation; tracking in mixed conditions, on the flats, and during landings; and performance on rails, boxes, and jibs.
Construction and Core
Power Ply works like a 3rd layer of fiberglass that structurally enhances a board for added return and improved durability. Arbor’s wood Power Plys are produced using a range of sustainably sourced, natural wood veneers.
Shaman core is Arbor’s lightest, most tech more; designed for high-end mountain riding and built with a 50/50 blend of Paulownia and Poplar woods.
Hi-load Glass is a triax over triax layup is ideal for on-edge performance.
Shape
Directional shape
Standard Progressive sidecut is a blended tri-radial sidecut design that provides tighter turning and quicker initiation, while maintaining stability at speed, when flat boarding, and during landings.
Sidewalls, Edges and Base
Power Rails sidewalls are made from environmentally friendly bamboo and deliver amazing landing and impact durability, unmatched edge performance and powerful return off your rails.
Rocket base is a higher molecular weight, wax-infused sintered base that provides unmatched durability and speed.
Recycled steel edges are built with hardened steel made using 60% recycled steel; provide maximum edge performance.
Ultra-thin protective top foil made using 30% caster bean based bio-plastic. This top sheet protects the board from damage caused by loose bindings, out-of-control skiers, or other unforeseen impacts. It also eliminates the need for environmentally harmful clear coats.
Graphics
**Please note that base colors will alternate and may not arrive exactly as pictured.
Binding Compatibility
2x4 inserts provide both a wide stance range and amazing micro adjustability.

    Comments about Arbor A-Frame Snowboard 2012:

    I took this beautiful piece of art out to snowmass, Copper and Loveland back bowls and it ate-up everything I could throw at it.It is so beautiful I hated to unwrap it and take it out. I was bummed that my nephew took us over some bumps that the snow disappeared on and it got scratched-up. I may buy another one just to jang on the wall to look at.

      Comments about Arbor A-Frame Snowboard 2012:

      I can only comment on the initial look and feel of the board. By far the best looking board I've ever seen. After years of using a board that was just a little too narrow, it's nice to find a back country board with adequate width without being overly stiff. So far - perfect flex, size, and feel for what I've been looking for.

      Comments about Arbor A-Frame Snowboard 2012:

      I ride with mostly skiiers so needed a board that was fast enough to keep up. After reading countless reviews online I finally bought a 2011 arbor a-frame; I've not been disappointed.

      The good:
      Kills it on groomers.
      Great stability at high speeds even when going through rutts or bumps at full speed.
      Good carving board, the design allows great edge contact with the snow.

      The 'ok':
      turn radius makes it hard to fly through moguls..
      This isn't a powder board, if 12" fall the night before I'm leaning way back while turning.
      Stomping out landings is a bit rough, its a lot less forgiving than my older board..you have to hit the sweet spot.

      The 'bad':
      beautiful topsheet gets nicked easily, while you are on the chair lift watch out for those pesky SKIIERS that bend their knees back and forth and whack the back topsheet of your board. It gashes the wood.

      This board is for experts. It picks up speed quickly and is unforgiving. If you are riding back country or off piste you have to be 'on top of your game' or else the board will throw you around. You have to work harder than other boards to initiate/complete a turn.
