Arbor Axis Bamboo Cruiser Longboard

Product Descriptions

REI Description: The Axis GT longboard from Arbor is an all-wood, drop-through cruiser. It's built to provide freeride level speed and slide performance, with amazing around town ride-abilty. Symmetrical snowboard-inspired waist and camber give you snappy rail-to-rail performance. Drop-through truck mounting gets you lower to the ground to power through turns and slides. Built with 6 plies of sustainably sourced hard rock maple for lightweight, durable performance; renewable, power-generating bamboo deck lends a clean, Zen-like flavor. Deck is gripped with long-lasting crushed recycled glass; this ultra-clear, high-performance surface allows the deck's natural grain and color to remain highly visible. Arbor skates are made with a water-based sanding sealer and finish coat. All wood by-product created during production is reclaimed for use in other Arbor products or by outside companies. Freeride 72mm, 78a durometer wheels provide excellent carve, downhill, slide and urban commute performance; they help manage speed, drifting and high-powered turning. Offset vented hubs provide light, cool performance; a wide contact patch increases traction and a sharp, flexible inner and outer lip allows wheels to conform to the road. Arbor Axis Bamboo includes ABEC 5 bearings and Gullwing 180mm trucks. Please note: wheel colors may vary from photo.
