Arbor's Shaping Ethos

Grip Tech + Parabolic Profiling

The system shaping philosophy underpins the design of every snowboard in our line. It allows us to create advanced true-rocker and true-camber designs. As a result we preserve all of the inherent riding benefits of these proven platforms by avoiding hybridization. Two distinct technologies make this possible:

Parabolic Profiling

We use a unique shaping technique that replaces the single radius arc found in traditional camber or rocker with a more advanced parabolic profile. The design blends five separate radii together to create a parabolic arc which gradually reduces the amount of rocker or camber toward the tip and tail. In our System Rocker shapes the design lowers the leading edge to improve edge hold. In our System Camber shapes the design makes the leading edge less aggressive for smoother performance. The blended five radii design also drastically improves our ability to tune each shape in our line for ability level, target terrain and riding style.

System Camber

Our System Camber shapes are for riders who want:

A highly responsive ride, crisp on-edge performance and more pop for carving and ollies
Effortless true-camber performance across all types of snow and during turns, spins and landings

The System X Baseplate

FOUND ON ALL ARBOR BINDINGS

A proprietary design that transfers rider input out to four heel-to-toe convergence zones, improving edge controls and response time.
A concave design allows a board to flex more seamlessly by reducing flat spots for improved edge performance.
When paired with an Arbor Snowboard, the System X design improves the activation of Arbor's Grip Tech contact points.
This unique binding / board interaction provides maximum performance at speed, in steeps, amd through any turn, carve or spin.

Fender Tech

The edge control created by Arbor's System platform allows us to add Fenders that slightly lift a board's leading edge off the snow. This dramatically improves turning, spins, float and tracking on cambered snowboards.

Unlike "early rise" or "rockered" nose/tail transition zone, Arbor's Fenders create smoother performance without shortening the camber section of the board. As a result, you get a clean ride without any loss of the pop or performance that comes from full-length camber. Today, we use Fenders on the majority of our System Camber designs.

Relapse Review

"The relapse is my favorite board I have owned. I’ve had Rides, Romes, and Lobsters, but the relapse is my go to. Super poppy off of anything and everything. Locks into rails as well as presses on boxes. Personally I don’t like surfy feeling boards, I like a more hard charging feel and this is it. You notice the contact points when riding. I even take this in trees and down double blacks and it surprisingly, holds up well when at high speeds. But the only downside is it does not handle powder well, which could also be due to the size board I got. I am 6’ 205lbs and got a 155mw. Hope this review helps if you’re stuck on the fence!"
