FEATURES & TECH
THE JIB SYSTEM
A FUSION OF INTERDEPENDENT TECHNOLOGIES THAT SUPPORT SUCCESSFUL ROCKER PERFORMANCE
Make no mistake, rocker represents a completely different approach to snowboard design. It requires a total rethink of long held ideas of how flex, materials, and shape interact and affect performance. In response, Arbor developed The System to address the new physics of riding rocker. In our opinion, the award winning “System” has proven itself to be the best rocker design yet offered.

OTHER FEATURES & TECH
THE TOPSHEET
WOOD POWER SPINE - Arbor’s sustainably sourced, inlaid wood Power Spine works like carbon fiber - tuning the board to improve return in target zones within the flex pattern. The Power Spine is one of the System Set of Technologies. Please refer to “The System” section for more details.
BIO-FILM - Every board in the Arbor line is now built with an ultra thin protective top foil made using 30% caster bean based bio-plastic. This top sheet protects the board from damage caused by loose bindings, out-of-control skiers, or other unforeseen impacts. Its natural glossy nature also eliminates the need for environmentally harmful clear coats.
WOOD CORE
MEDICINE CORE - Arbor’s principle all-mountain core, built from 100% FSC certified, sustainably produced poplar. Poplar remains the industry’s standard for reliable return and lasting durability.
BASE
FUSION BASE - A tough, user-friendly extruded base that’s light and easy to repair.
SIDECUT
UNBLENDED PROGRESSIVE - Arbor’s unblended tri-radial sidecut technology; better known as “Grip Tech.” Please see “The System” Section for more details.
SIDEWALLS
RHYTHM RAILS - Made from an advanced blend of ABS and urethane; delivers durability, a clean, acoustically damp ride, and solid edge performance.
GLASS BALANCING
BUTTER GLASSING - A biax over biax lay-up that’s designed for park and street inspired all-mountain and urban riding
INSERTS
2X4 14-PACKS - An insert system that provides a wide stance range and amazing micro adjustability; used to create Arbor’s:
Sumo Stance - Max Stance 25.2" / 64 cm
SHADOW FLEX
DEEP SHADOW - Delivers JIB and street performance. A slight tapered thinning of the core profile between the bindings, improves: turn and spin initiation; tracking in mixed conditions, on the flats, and during landings; and performance on rails, boxes, and naturals.
EDGES
BRONZE - Made with softer bronze for JIB specific performance. Check out “The System” section for more details.
2-YEAR WARRANTY
Every board in the Arbor line comes with a two-year warranty on material and workmanship. We stand by everything we make.
