2022 ARBOR BRYAN IGUCHI PRO SPLITBOARD
There are few snowboarders whose names are as synonymous with backcountry riding as Bryan Iguchi. One of the OG legends of the big mountain scene, the Guch can often be found in his backyard of Grand Teton National Park looking for big lines far removed from chairlifts and crowds, and he does it all on the Arbor Bryan Iguchi Pro Splitboard. This split is built to handle the most technical terrain around, and earns its trust on everything from mid winter powder laps to late season volcano missions. It's confidence inspiring, powerful, and fun, and simply one of the best backcountry setups you get hop onto, period.
Rocker Type
System Camber – If you want a highly responsive ride, crisp on-edge performance, and more pop for carving and ollies - all with smoother camber performance - then System Camber shapes are for you. The camber progressively reduces toward the tip and tail, making the leading edge less aggressive for cleaner on-snow performance.
Flex
Flex Rating – 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Shape
1 cm Taper
3° Uprise Fenders – Arbor’s Fenders are lifted side sections at the tip/tail of the board that create smoother performance without shortening the camber section of the board. As a result, you get a clean ride without any loss of the pop that comes from full-length camber.
Core
Highland Split Core – The highly versatile Highland Core, constructed with a 1:2 blend of poplar and paulownia, with additional insert and centerline components for a premium factory splitboard.
Laminates
Mixed Glassing – A triax over biax lay-up that's best for versatility: pow, backcountry, groomers, jumps, and more.
Sidewalls
360° Fully Wrapped Sidewalls – Eliminates the need for tip fill, while effectively tying the whole snowboard together. A technology that delivers incredibly tight tolerances for improved board life and durability.
Base
Sintered Plus Base – Arbor's sintered plus base is mid-density material that demonstrates increased speed and durability while maintaining the ease of repair.
Edges
Recycled Steel Edges – Highly durable, recycled steel edges embody Arbor's key values: quality and sustainability.
Topsheet
Hand Dyed Ash Powerply – Sustainably harvested, majority coming from borer-kill trees, off-white to light brown, the canvas for Arbor’s hand-dyed designs.
R.A.P. Topless Technology – A build process in which Arbor eliminates the need for their Bio-Plastic Topsheet, creating a lighter, more eco-friendly ride.
