It’s been an insane snow year in SoCal, the kind of season you may only see every ten years. At Bear Mountain, it’s almost been more about riding powder in the canyons than shredding one of the best parks in the world. In this Video Of The Week, Arbor marketing director, Brad Farmer and Bear Mountain team rider, Eli Weiner set out on a powder mission into Bow Canyon–Eli on the Wasteland snowboard and Brad on the Draft. Not your typical pow boards but then this isn’t your typical place to shred deep snow. Get into it.
Arbor’s take on the rocker revolution - the new Draft is designed around The System, a fusion of interdependent technologies that support jib-specific performance.
Arbor has regional ream riders all over the nation including a tight crew of shreds out in Pennsylvania riding Blue Mountain Resort. Pictured here we see Ryan keglovics (left side) Adam Heinsoth (lower middle) Dave Trainer (upper middle-team manager) Kris Hantz (right side).
