Cosa Nostra Snowboard

A tribute to Arbor's boundary-pushing, environmentally conscious ethos, the Arbor Cosa Nostra Snowboard blends a pow-slaying swallowtail shape with a reclaimed wood topsheet for beautiful aesthetic detail. This directional swallowtail is a purpose-built powder stick for riders seeking the surfiest slashes and most effortless float. Its reclined parabolic rocker matches the board's set-back stance, allowing the massive Arrowhead tip to plane across the deepest snow on each glorious trip to the whiteroom. Grip-Tech mid-board contacts add control underfoot, helping to alleviate the washy feel normally associated with a full rocker profile. Suddenly, quick turns and laid-out carves are easy to achieve on groomers, lending extra versatility to this purpose-built powder deck.

Meaning "Our Thing," the Cosa Nostra is the more premium version of Arbor's Shreddy Krueger powder board. As such, you'll appreciate the board's Highland core that's made of both poplar and paulownia for an ultra-light feel. The board's striking Power Ply topsheet uses four types of reclaimed wood for a beautiful finish, also acting as an extra structural layer for improved durability and pop.

Another improvement over the the Shreddy Krueger, the centerline Carbon Strut boosts snap and stability when you're blasting down steeps and sending natural drops. Mixed Glassing combines the best qualities of triax and biax fiberglass, striking a nice balance between high-speed response and a surfy feel for banking between tight trees and negotiating chutes. Add in a stainless steel tip protector for protection against dings and impacts, as well as a super-fast sintered base to keep you from bogging down on those epic powder days.
