Arbor Clovis Snowboard 2022

Mark Carter has experienced all terrain. As a rancher on the hills and flats in the off-season, traveling to peaks in North America and abroad - if you ask him, there's no place like home. His affinity for chasing technical lines in steep and deep terrain is inspired by his home, the Teton Mountains of Wyoming. The Arbor Clovis snowboard is the optimal tool for the freeride-focused terrain he rides all winter long. The increased volume in the nose for float matched with Arbor's System Camber and a tapered outline delivers confidence and performance in any terrain.

• Flex Rating (1 = soft, 10 = most responsive)
  • 6
• Suggested Use
  • All-Mountain / Big-Mountain / Powder / Freeriding
• Camber / Rocker Style
  • The Camber System design offers a poppy ride with crisp, fully engaged performance.
• Shape
  • Directional
• Core Material
  • FSC Certified Double Barrel Core: Poplar to Paulownia blend with bamboo stringers running down the center of the board for added longitudinal pop and unmatched board control.
  • AWD Carbon A-Frame: A carbon fiber lay-up insert running from the contact points to the inserts creates structural a-frames for improved torsional performance in the steeps and at speed.
• Construction
  • Mixed Glassing: A triax over biax lay-up that's best for versatility: pow, backcountry, groomers, jumps, and more.
  • Entropy Bio Resin: Starting with Arbor's 2020 line they are proud to announce that all Powerplys and R.A.P. Topless Tech veneers will be made with Entropy Bio-Resin, a replacement for traditional petroleum based resin that doesn't affect performance or usability. The ingredients that go into Entropy Bio-Resin 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).
  • 360-Degree Rails: A 360-degree, fully wrapped sidewall that 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.
  • Bio-Plastic Topsheet: One of the materials Arbor uses in their quest to eliminate harmful petroleum-based plastics from their production cycle. Made from CastorBean Oil, this eco-topsheet is extremely durable and water repellent.
  • Arbor's signature Powerply topsheet, made with a sustainably eastern USA-sourced Black Walnut. The natural grain not only creates the style they've been known for since 1995, but also improves the strength, durability, and return of their snowboards. The Power Ply works like an added layer of fiberglass, and contributes to make these designs the most labor–intensive snowboards on the market. The resulting performance, board life, finish quality, reduced reliance on man–made glues, coatings, and composites are worth the extra effort.
• Edges
  • Recycled Steel Edge
  • Factory Tuned: Arbor detunes the tip and tail contact points on all snowboards for a catch-free ride before they leave the factory.
• Base
  • Sintered Plus Base: Arbor's sintered plus base is a mid-density material that demonstrates increased speed and durability while maintaining the east of repair.
  • Wend Natural Wax: All Arbor snowboards hit the shop floor ready to ride with Wend Natural Wax.
  • Zero Waste Base Technology: All of Arbor's die-cut bases feature their Zero Waste Base technology. This process is essential to reducing carbon footprints and eliminating waste during the manufacturing process.
• Binding Mounting System
  • 2x4 Inserts
