Flex:
Flex Rating: 9 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Shape:
Pow Tech: With Pow Tech, Arbor has eliminated the front two Grip Tech contact points and moved the board's primary interface with the snow under your back foot, allowing delivery of powder-specific performance driven by the power of your back leg.
Pow Fenders: Arbor’s Fenders are lifted side sections at the tip/tail of the board that create smoother performance without shortening the camber section of the board. As a result, you get a clean ride without any loss of the pop that comes from full-length camber. Pow Fenders feature long tip sections with 3° rise for deeper snow performance and maximum float.

Core:
FSC Certified Highland II Core: A newly developed screening process has allowed Arbor to hand select the very lightest and highest quality paulownia from their own sourcing partners. The result is a lighter, more responsive version of the FSC Certified Highland Core known for highly reliable return and long-lasting durability.
Laminates:
Mixed Glassing: A triax over biax lay-up that's best for versatility: pow, backcountry, groomers, jumps, and more.
Sidewalls:
360° Fully Wrapped Sidewalls: Eliminates the need for tip fill, while effectively tying the whole snowboard together. A technology that delivers incredibly tight tolerances for improved board life and durability.
Base:
Sintered Plus Base: Arbor's sintered plus base is mid-density material that demonstrates increased speed and durability while maintaining the ease of repair.
Edges:
Recycled Steel Edges: Highly durable, recycled steel edges embody Arbor's key values: quality and sustainability.
Factory Tuned: Arbor detunes the tip and tail contact points on all of their snowboards for a catch-free ride before they leave the factory.
Topsheet:
Bio Plastic Topsheet: One of the materials Arbor uses in the quest to eliminate harmful petroleum based plastics from the production cycle. Made from castor bean oil, this eco-topsheet is extremely durable and water repellent.
Additional Features:
Hand Dyed Ash Powerply: Hand-dyed topsheets give each board a unique wood grain look.
Bio Resin: Bio-Resin is a replacement for traditional petroleum based resin that doesn't affect performance or usability. The ingredients that go into it are sourced as co-products or waste products of other industrial processes and are manufactured employing green chemistry techniques that reduce the carbon footprint of the material by up to 40% when compared to its petroleum based equivalent.
