Flex:
Flex Rating: 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Shape:
3° Uprise 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.
Taper: 8 mm
Grip-Tech: A tri-radial sidecut design that is not "blended." Natural shaping intersections, that in the past were eliminated, have been transformed into heel and toe contact points that provide a direct, more ergonomic way to grip the snow when additional control is needed.
Core:
Highland Split Core: The highly versatile Highland Core, constructed with a 1:2 blend of poplar and paulownia, with additional insert and centerline components for a premium factory splitboard.
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.
Recycled ABS: When a plastic alternative is unavailable, as in the case of ABS sidewalls, Arbor does its best to opt for a recycled material to improve the sustainability of its products.
Base:
Sintered Base: A higher molecular weight, sintered base that provides added durability and speed.
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:
Aromatic Cedar Powerply: FSC Certified, sustainably harvested, resilient and aromatic, with tones of cream, yellow, dark red, and violet.
R.A.P. Topless Technology: A build process in which Arbor eliminates the need for their Bio-Plastic Topsheet, creating a lighter, more eco-friendly ride.
Additional Features:
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.
Wend Natural Wax: All Arbor snowboards hit the shop floor ready to ride with Wend Natural Wax.
Karakoram UltraClip: Karakoram’s premium splitboard clip is powerful, easier to use, and
lighter. Once joined, the UltraClip fully constrains the seam of your
splitboard to eliminate seam rattling, seam shearing, and seam
rolling. The lever locks in the touring position as well to eliminate
unwanted movement on the ascent.
