Arbor Slouch Beanie

Product Descriptions

REI Description: The Arbor Element RX snowboard delivers classic wood style and high-end performance on the mountain, in the park and well beyond. For intermediate to advanced riders, the Element RX has a quintessential do-everything design. System rocker design offers reliable, all-aspect performance in deep powder, tight trees, technical steeps and carvable groomers. Rocker shape ensures that outside contact points engage with the snow when maximum edge control is needed; this means loaded turns, higher speeds and bigger landings. Grip Tech sidecut makes 4 points of contact underfoot for improved and direct edge control; contact points create heel and toe pivot points for faster, more efficient turning. Mountain twin shape positions the rider directly over the Grip Tech contact points for effective edge activation and adds nose length for better float in pow. Forest Stewardship Council certified for sustainable production, this high-grade lightweight poplar core has 2 bamboo compression axles running tip to tail. These bamboo axles create compression struts that liven longitudinal flex without affecting turn or spin initiation and landing recovery. Sustainably sourced inlaid wood topsheet structurally enhances the board, adding return and durability, and reducing weight; plus, it creates a one-of-a-kind look. Mixed glassing (triax over biax) provides torsional forgiveness, board feel and edge hold, and performs best for general on-mountain and park riding. Topsheet features a protective ultrathin finish, made from a castor-bean-based bio-plastic, that guards against damage caused by loose bindings and unforeseen impacts. Board's core profile is slightly thinner and tapered in between the bindings to enhance mountain and park performance. ABS/urethane blend sidewall construction provides maximum durability and excellent edge control.

DogFunk Description: You're not going to make it in the military if you can't get your shoulders straight and your salute dialed in. Lucky for you, Arbor made the Slouch Beanie from viscose from bamboo so at least your head will be comfy when you're on KP.
