A great forgiving and smooth ride!
Originally posted at www.arborcollective.com on Feb 19, 2022I started later in life, at 25, on a high-end camber GNU that I had bought on eBay. Needless to say that $hit was like a stiff piece of steel that never met an edge it couldn't catch and was difficult to turn for a newbie. After many brutal wipeouts, I learned to ride it, but a few years later I wanted something more forgiving and surfy... this board did not disappoint at ALL. It was a game changer... and allowed my riding to progress to another level because I was able to relax a bit more and iron out the kinks. I still love it after 6 seasons. The Grip-Tech shines in icy conditions too... like, noticeably... I've watched people eat $hit around me while I charge through. Is it slower than the GNU? Yeah... but, that's fine... I'm older and wiser and a better rider because of it.

Great beginner board paired with Burton Step Ons

48 y/o man, wanted an attractive set up and my only (much younger) snowboarder buddy recommended "Arbor". I added Burton Step on bindings and read a Kevin Ryan (the illustrated guide to snowboarding 1997) book that was hard to find. I'm a snowboarder now and I've only bought two lift tickets!! That's right, with this set up, lots of you tube and some common sense I'm off the bunny hill in my second time out!! I found this year's version is made of a "sintered" base too (google it). I think this board is a real game changer. Also helmet, pads and all that stuff aside; out of 15 runs last night (second day out) I fell to my knees like maybe twice!?! If your thinking of this board or researching it I totally recommend, I got Formula Rocker and at first I thought the "grip tech" was a gimmick...but I really think it must be working. I have also used it a lot in my own back yard for practice. I have limited skateboarding experiences so YMMV. I waited as long as I could to write a review for this board and now with about 10 hours of riding on a hill I think I can say it was worth it. 5 stars for me based on my lack of previous boards...this one rocks.

Dave really knows his stuff! I really appreciate him making sure that I got what I needed for the icy conditions where I live. He was also super thoughtful in making sure that I had what I need as a beginner, but able to progress with time and practice. Thanks so much!!!! Can't wait to get back out there!

Edward was a champ. He answered all of my questions in a timely manner, was filled with knowledge, and patient. I am difficult to sell to because I want to know all of the information available about a product before I purchase. Edward never tried to upsell me or get me into something I wasn’t interested in. Eventually, I would end up purchasing a pair of skis that I know will be perfect. Very happy that I was linked up with Edward. Guy deserves a raise!!!

Casey was awesome and very patient with me. I appreciate that as I drug my purchase out for a few days as life got in the way...but whenever I messaged her, she was there and awesome!! I'm usually ask a lot of questions and she was always quick to answer and seemed eager to answer more if I had them.

I came to curated because my local ski shops said my feet were too big to fit into anything they carried. They didnt offer me any alternatives, so I took to the internet. I am so grateful to have found Thomas because he worked with me to find the perfect set. I am so grateful for his time and expertise and I cannot wait to receive my new gear. Thank you Thomas!

I was looking to upgrade my beginner set of skis (Atomic Cloud 9s) and had no idea where to begin. Joe asked all the right questions to help me narrow down what I wanted out of my next set. I needed skis with more stability while turning and at high speeds, and could handle the variety of snow/ice east coast winters bring. He gave me numerous recommendations within my budget, explained why he recommended them, and answered alllll my questions. In the end, I went with the Volkl Kenjas 88 and have been IN ABSOLUTE HEAVEN this winter. Thanks, Joe!

Ben is clearly passionate about skiing and getting people into the right stuff. As someone who has never shopped for ski equipment, I was daunted by all of the options available. Ben considered my experience and history as well as goals to ensure I was kitted out properly. Thank you Ben and I appreciate the attention and time!

I can't say enough good things about my experience working with Dave! I was in the market for a new snowboard and accessories, and Dave went above and beyond to help me find exactly what I needed. He was super knowledgeable, patient, and took the time to understand my riding style and preferences.
Not only did he recommend a board that's perfect for me, but he also helped me pick out the right bindings, boots, and even some extras to enhance my setup. His advice was spot-on, and I never felt pressured—just guided by someone who really knows their stuff.
If you're looking for expert advice and personalized service, Dave is the one to talk to. Highly recommend!
