Be the first to review this product

The board that put Arbor on the map, and still one of their best sellers, the Arbor Element Snowboard and its distinctive Walnut topsheet deliver top shelf performance in any conditions. Tweaked slowly over the seasons, the Element now incorporates the Knucklehead tip profile for added float in powder as well as the high-performance bamboo-reinforced Double Barrel core. If you're in your element when it's cold and deep, adding the Arbor Element to your quiver will make it that much more RIGHT.

Product Details

Rocker Type

The System RockerThe Rocker System combines a progressive parabolic arc rocker profile with a tri-radial Grip Tech sidecut design. Enjoy more natural and cleaner tracking turns with a high performance surfy ride.

 

Flex

61 = 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.

Knucklehead TipPeak to parking lot with extra punch for powder.

Mountain TwinA shorter tail than nose gives this board a slightly setback feeling keeping the board on top of the snow and perfect starting point for progression.

Core

Double Barrel I Core LTArbor's most versatile core, made from poplar, reinforced with two bamboo struts running down the center of a board, for added longitudinal pop and easy turns.

Laminates

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

Sidewalls

360° RailsA 360°, 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.

Topsheet

American Black Walnut Power PlyThe Power Ply works like an added layer of fiberglass. During construction, the natural wood fibers are turned into a composite layer inside the board.

Specs

  • Terrain: All-Mountain

    Terrain

    All-Mountain All-mountain snowboards are designed for exploring the whole mountain. They are your go-to for a snowboard that will do anything. They feel at home on groomers, powder, park runs and almost anything in between. The vast majority of snowboarders choose all-mountain boards for their great versatility. If you’re just getting started or unsure of exactly what you need, an all-mountain snowboard is a great choice.


  • Ability Level: Intermediate-Advanced

    Ability Level

    Intermediate-Advanced Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed. 

 

  • Rocker Type: Rocker

    Rocker Type

     
  • Rocker A rocker board side profile is the opposite of a camber board, with a smooth downward curvature to it and less edge contact length when the board is weighted. Rocker boards float well in powder and pivot more easily underfoot. They also tend to be less “hooky” at both tip and tail and better for landing spin maneuvers when you don’t quite have enough rotation. 
  • Shape: Directional Twin

 

  • Flex Rating: Medium

    Flex Rating

  • Medium The amount a snowboard flexes varies significantly between boards. Snowboard flex ratings are not necessarily standardized across manufacturers, so the flex may vary from brand to brand. Many manufacturers will give a number rating ranging from 1-10, 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. We have standardized the manufacturers' number ratings to a feel rating ranging from soft to very stiff. Generally you will find flex ratings of 1-2 as soft, 3-5 as medium, 6-8 as stiff, and 9-10 as very stiff. Flex ratings and feel may ultimately vary from snowboard to snowboard.
