Description

Why We Like The Element Rocker Snowboard

The Arbor Element Snowboard is our top pick for riders who crave fresh powder and freeride terrain. Whether you're throwing overhead slashes, ripping through chutes, or stomping cliffs, this snowboard is ready for action. And don't be surprised if it amazes you in the park as well.

The System Rocker design of this snowboard combines various elements to deliver exceptional rocker performance along with outstanding edge hold and pop. Its parabolic arc provides a more pronounced rocker between the bindings, ensuring effortless powder float and a smooth, catch-free ride on hardpack. Initiating turns becomes a breeze thanks to this design. Additionally, the Grip Tech sidecut features two extra contact points on each edge, giving you reliable edge hold even on a rocker profile. To add to its impressive performance, the Element Rocker Snowboard incorporates Black Walnut wood, contributing to snappier, eco-friendly performance and an all-natural aesthetic.

Details:

- Take on any obstacle at the resort with this versatile deck

- Enjoy a full parabolic rocker that is loose, catch-free, and excels in powder

- Experience a medium flex that offers stability at high speeds, responsiveness, and the ability to press

- Benefit from the Grip Tech sidecut, which adds two strategic bumps along the edge for locked-in edge hold

- The Highland II core utilizes premium poplar and paulownia wood for enhanced strength
