There's something about a black snowboard that just makes it look faster, meaner, and ready to send it. The Arbor Element Black Rocker Snowboard is the gentleman's choice for a refined all-terrain daily driver. Ride this down the groomers, get in laps at the park, and milk that season pass for all its worth. The Arbor Element Black Rocker Snowboard is a superb all-mountain quiver killer that is happy to do a little bit of everything for the tasteful renaissance rider that chooses it.
Flex Rating – 5 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
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.
Knucklehead Tip – Peak to parking lot with extra punch for powder.
FSC® Certified Highland II Core – A newly developed screening process has allowed Arbor to hand select the very lightest and highest quality paulownia from its 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.
Mixed Glassing – A triax over biax lay-up that's best for versatility: pow, backcountry, groomers, jumps and more.
360° Rails – A 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.
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.
Extruded Base – A tough, user-friendly extruded base that delivers lighter-weight performance.
Recycled Steel Edges – Arbor uses the most sustainable components possible. All edges are made from recycled steel. Highly durable, recycled steel edges embody both quality and sustainability.
Hand Dyed Ash Powerply – The Powerply works like an added layer of fiberglass. During construction, the natural wood or bamboo fibers are turned into a composite layer inside the board.
Entropy Bio Resin – Starting with the 2020 line, Arbor is proud to announce that all Powerplys and R.A.P. Topless Tech veneers will be made with Entropy Bio-Resin, a replacement for traditional petroleum based resin that doesn't affect performance or usability. The ingredients that go into Entropy 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.
Factory Tuned – Arbor detunes the tip and tail contact points on all of its snowboards for a catch-free ride before they leave the factory.
Wend Natural Wax – All Arbor snowboards hit the shop floor ready to ride with Wend Natural Wax.
