Got my new ride today, I don't know whether to ride it or hang it on the wall

Arbor boards > art.

There is an old belief among artists that REAL art can never truly perform a useful task. Thus, cars and snowboards are not technically art. I call those people snobs.

God i love the look of Arbor boards...

I would have gotten a Roundhouse or something like that instead of my SL-R but all of Arbors boards are too large for me @ 140lbs...

Its really nice. (But I heard that because of the pretty wood inlays and stuff it makes them heavier?)

Isn't the Roundhouse a wide board? I seriously considered one, but I thought it was wide so I wrote it off. Best looking board available if you ask me.

RIDE IT!!!!

Nice, what year is your Element?

I have an 07 Roundhouse - yes the Roundhouse is a wide board and serves me well. I have yet to chip the top sheet after taking it out maybe 5 times.

Also - the Arbor boards are pretty light.

Arbors are amazing. The A-Frame is my favorite, followed by the Roundhouse, which my husband owns. It's a wide board, which is why he chose it. I have the Eden. Her name is Ari.

I frigging love Arbor's graphics. If I ever move out west I'm definitely getting one of their freeride boards.
