Arbor Element Alt? - Snowboarding Forum

redlude97 · 02-13-2008, 02:50 PM

So I ran across some good deals on Arbor snowboards, and I've narrowed my choice down to the Arbor Element Alt. I couldn't really find any reviews for it though, so I decided to post up and see if anyone has one or has any reviews of it. I'm predominetly a freerider that occasionally hits the park for the jumps, but no rails. I'm also not sure of which size to order, I'm right on the edge between the 158 and 161. I'm 5'7" ~185-190lbs with a size 9 boot. Any help would be great. I'll be pairing it with my 04/05 Ride Spi's until I purchase new bindings, most likely Rome Targas.

buy it. holy crap what a deal on that. I have last year's Arbor Element and its a great freeride board. For resort riding and general freeriding and even some wacky stuff its a great overall board. For deeper powder/backcountry stuff I still use my NS.
