Known by those who love it as the All-Terrain Vehicle of snowboards, the Arbor Element leaves little left to be desired. Offered in both rocker and camber with a medium flex and a true twin shape, the Element certainly lives up to its “ATV” name. Arbor’s System Camber profile offers just the right amount of engagement, stability, and pop to maneuver through all snow conditions with ease, while its System Rocker counterpart brings a looser, surfier feel to springtime conditions and mid-season pow days. With both versions fully equipped with Arbor’s GripTech sidecut technology, every rider can rest assured knowing that no matter which deck they choose, it’ll grip, grab, and go through early season hardpack and east coast ice. Complete with a naturally finished wooden topsheet that pays tribute to Arbor’s meticulous craftsmanship, the Element remains masked under a simple yet striking façade.

At the heart of the Element lies its easy-riding style, friendly persona, and versatile skillset. Such a blend of characteristics is not always common in a high-end board, making the Element easily accessible to riders with a wide range of skill levels and intentions. More playful, freestyle riders will find a lot to love in the Element Rocker’s loose, surfy, and playful feel, while more aggressive, all-mountain athletes can delight in the Element Camber’s responsive and earnest ride. Though at this point it goes without saying, Arbor has created a deck that appeals to just about anyone, anywhere, at any time.
