My thoughts on the Arbor Veda

This thing can move. I was so used to riding my zero-camber board, that I forgot what it feels like to ride a board that is poppy and responsive. This board is extremely light, has great flex, and is responsive in most terrain settings. I feel like I’m in complete control of this board, making carving and turning effortless. With my old board, I was in the habit of really moving my weight around in order to get the carves I wanted, whereas this board moves and responds much quicker.

The board was created in collaboration with professional Canadian snowboarder Marie-France Roy. Known for her big-mountain skills, the Veda was designed to handle powder and provide more powerful turn initiation.Article contentThis board rips on resort, in powder and keeps up in the park. It’s super responsive, especially paired with the Burton Step-On system and provides just the right amount of pop. It feels like a sturdy board and gives me confidence in a variety of terrain settings.

The composite of the board is lightweight and eco-friendly — something that Arbor takes very seriously. Considered the “first action sports brand founded to focus on sustainability” back in 1995, the company puts earth first and that stays true in the Arbor Veda. From solar manufacturing processes down to the bio-plastic topsheets, sustainable wood and bio-resin used to create the board.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.
