2x4 14 Pack Inserts - Provide a wide stance range, while at the same time delivering critical micro adjustability.
3-Year Warranty - We stand behind the quality and construction of every Arbor snowboard with an extended 3-Year Warranty. For more information on our warranty policy, visit https://www.arborcollective.com/us/warranty
Factory Tuned - We detune the tip and tail contact points on all of our snowboards for a catch-free ride before they leave the factory.
Mixed Glassing - A triax over biax lay–up that’s best for versatility: pow, backcountry, groomers, jumps, and more.
R.A.P. Topless Technology - A build process in which we eliminate the need for our Bio-Plastic Topsheet, creating a lighter, more ecofriendly ride.
Sintered Base - A higher molecular weight, sintered base that provides added durability and speed.
360° Fully Wrapped Sidewalls - A 360–degree, fully wrapped sidewall that 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.
Tech Talk
3° Uprise Fenders - The outside contact point is lifted by 3°. This makes the board less catchy and agressive when initiating the turn while the rider can rely on amazing grip once the board is fully on the edge.
Fender Tech - Arbor offers Fenders on many of our System Camber shapes. The Fenders pull the outside contact points off the snow to further improve spin / turn initiation, and tracking across the snow.
Grip Tech - creates added heel and toe contact points that dramatically improve edge control on snow and ice. The design creates a more ergonomic and direct connection to the snow for substantially improved handling and response time. The added contact points make it possible for Arbor to offer Rocker designs that hold an amazing edge, and Camber designs that provide cleaner edge performance.
Knucklehead Shape - Peak to parking lot with extra punch for powder.
Parabolic Profiling - We use a unique shaping technique that replaces the single radius arc found in traditional camber or rocker, with a more advanced parabolic profile. The design blends five separate radii together to create a parabolic arc, which gradually reduces the amount of rocker or camber toward the tip and tail. In our System Rocker shapes, the design lowers the leading edge to improve edge hold. In our System Camber shapes, the design makes the leading edge less aggressive for smoother performance. The blended five radii design also drastically improves our ability to tune each shape in our line for ability level, target terrain, and riding style.
System Camber - Our System Camber shapes are for riders who want: a highly responsive ride, crisp on-edge performance, and more pop for; carving and ollies; effortless true-camber performance across all types of snow, and during turns, spin, and landings
Taper - A shaping technique that narrows the profile of the snowboard towards the rear contact points. Tapered snowboards will have a wider nose and narrower tail, allowing the tail of the board to sink in deeper snow creating natural float and cleaner tracking.
THE SYSTEM - shaping philosophy underpins the design of every snowboard in our line. It allows us to create advanced true-rocker and true-camber designs. As a result, we preserve all of the inherent riding benefits of these proven platforms by avoiding hybridization. Two distinct technologies make this possible.
Material
Bio-Resin - Starting with our 2020 line we are proud to announce that all Powerplys and R.A.P. Topless Tech veneers will be made with Bio- Resin, a replacement for traditional petroleum based resin that doesn’t affect performance or usability. The ingredients that go into Bio-Resin 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).
Double Barrel Core - Poplar and Paulownia blend with bamboo stringers running down the center of the board for added longitudinal pop and unmatched board control.
Handdyed Ash Powerply - Sustainably harvested, majority coming from borer-kill trees, off-white to light brown, the canvas forArbor's hand-dyed designs.
Recycled Steel Edges - Our highly durable, recycled steed edges embody two of Arbor’s key values: quality and sustainability.
Wend Natural Wax - All Arbor snowboards hit the shop floor ready to ride with Wend Natural Wax.
