The Arbor GPS Snowboard is the artist formerly known as the Annex, but while the name may have changed, the song remains the same. This versatile board is the high performance directional freerider of Bryan Iguchi's Signature Series. It features a camber profile for powerful pop and edge control, with a tapered directional shape that's perfect for navigating technical terrain. The Highland III Core is light and snappy, and it's all backed up by Carbon Stringers for featherweight rebound and response. Outstanding!
Product Details
Rocker Type
System Camber – If you want a highly responsive ride, crisp on-edge performance, and more pop for carving and ollies - all with smoother camber performance - then System Camber shapes are for you. The camber progressively reduces toward the tip and tail, making the leading edge less aggressive for cleaner on-snow performance.
Flex
Flex Rating – 8 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Shape
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.
Taper – 19mm
3° Fenders – 3D shaping lifts the contact points for improved turn initiation without shortening the camber section of the board. As a result, you get a clean ride without any loss of the pop that comes from full-length camber.
Core
Highland III Core – A 5 / 20 blend of Poplar and Paulownia for lighter weight and higher performance. The HIGHLAND III has the highest ratio of Paulownia to Poplar
Laminates
Mixed Glassing – A triax over biax lay-up that's best for versatility: pow, backcountry, groomers, jumps, and more.
Double Carbon Stringers – Two carbon fiber stringers run from the tip to tail providing added pop, snap and landing durability.
Sidewalls
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 their products.
360° Fully Wrapped Sidewalls – 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.
Base
Sintered Base – A higher molecular weight, sintered base that provides added durability and speed.
Edges
Recycled Steel Edges – Highly durable, recycled steel edges embody Arbor's key values: quality and sustainability.
Factory Tuned – Arbor detunes the tip and tail contact points on all of their snowboards for a catch-free ride before they leave the factory.
Topsheet
Bio Plastic Topsheet – One of the materials Arbor uses in the quest to eliminate harmful petroleum based plastics from the production cycle. Made from castor bean oil, this eco-topsheet is extremely durable and water repellent.
Additional Features
Bio Resin – Bio-Resin is a replacement for traditional petroleum based resin that doesn't affect performance or usability. The ingredients that go into it 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.
