Description

Out of your element? Never. The Arbor Element Snowboard is a seriously well-equipped deck for riders ready to tackle the whole resort with confidence and flair. It drops in with a versatile, well rounded shape inherited from the equally excellent Coda, a snappy wood core, and a System Rocker profile for smooth, surfy turns. From the groomers to the park, this board is a blast!

Rocker Type

System RockerIf you want a surfy ride, natural float, buttery turns and spins, and catch-free tracking across the snow – all with highly reliable edge hold – then Arbor’s System Rocker shapes are for you. System Rocker progressively reduces the amount of rocker toward the tip and tail and allows the outside contacts to easily engage when max edge hold is needed.

Flex

Flex Rating5 (1 Soft – 10 Stiff)

Shape

Grip-TechA 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 II CoreA 10 / 20 blend of Poplar and Paulownia for a lighter, more responsive version of the Highland Core

Laminates

Mixed GlassingA triax over biax lay-up that’s best for versatility: pow, backcountry, groomers, jumps, and more.

Sidewalls

360 Fully Wrapped SidewallsEliminates 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 BaseA higher molecular weight, sintered base that provides added durability and speed.

Edges

Recycled Steel EdgesHighly durable, recycled steel edges embody Arbor’s key values: quality and sustainability.

Factory TunedArbor detunes the tip and tail contact points on all of their snowboards for a catch-free ride before they leave the factory.

Topsheet

Real Wood PowerplySustainably harvested, majority coming from borer-kill trees, off-white to light brown, the canvas for Arbors hand-dyed designs.

Additional Features
