The Arbor GPS Snowboard is the artist formerly known as the Annex, but while the name may have changed, the song remains the same. This versatile board is the high performance directional freerider of Bryan Iguchi's Signature Series. It features a camber profile for powerful pop and edge control, with a tapered directional shape that's perfect for navigating technical terrain. The Highland III Core is light and snappy, and it's all backed up by Carbon Stringers for featherweight rebound and response. Outstanding!
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 Rating – 8 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Grip-Tech – A tri-radial sidecut design that is not "blended." Natural shaping intersections, that in the past were eliminated, have been transformed into heel and toe contact points that provide a direct, more ergonomic way to grip the snow when additional control is needed.
Taper – 19mm
3° Fenders – 3D shaping lifts the contact points for improved turn initiation 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.
Highland III Core – A 5 / 20 blend of Poplar and Paulownia for lighter weight and higher performance. The HIGHLAND III has the highest ratio of Paulownia to Poplar
Mixed Glassing – A triax over biax lay-up that's best for versatility: pow, backcountry, groomers, jumps, and more.
Double Carbon Stringers – Two carbon fiber stringers run from the tip to tail providing added pop, snap and landing durability.
Recycled ABS – When a plastic alternative is unavailable, as in the case of ABS sidewalls, Arbor does its best to opt for a recycled material to improve the sustainability of their products.
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.
Sintered Base – A higher molecular weight, sintered base that provides added durability and speed.
Recycled Steel Edges – Highly durable, recycled steel edges embody Arbor's key values: quality and sustainability.
Factory Tuned – Arbor detunes the tip and tail contact points on all of their snowboards for a catch-free ride before they leave the factory.
Bio Plastic Topsheet – One of the materials Arbor uses in the quest to eliminate harmful petroleum based plastics from the production cycle. Made from castor bean oil, this eco-topsheet is extremely durable and water repellent.
Bio Resin – Bio-Resin is a replacement for traditional petroleum based resin that doesn't affect performance or usability. The ingredients that go into it are sourced as co-products or waste products of other industrial processes and are manufactured employing green chemistry techniques that reduce the carbon footprint of the material by up to 40% when compared to its petroleum based equivalent.

Go higher and ride faster strapped into the Flux XF Snowboard Bindings. These binders serve up efficient power thanks to their heelside stabilizer and resistant material that's stiff and lightweight. A symmetric retro mod highback supports hard landings and the Boost FootOn+ footbed elevates your edging.
Flex Rating – 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Super Ultima Base – Lightweight with quick edge-to-edge response while the board is being flexed.
Performance Blend – A nylon and fiberglass mix for all-around performance.
Boost FootOn+ – The center is made of a soft material, and when you step on it, it naturally becomes concave, making it easier for the toe and heel to step on it. Of course, the surface is made of a material that does not easily get snow on it.
Responsive Stabilizer – A large stabilizer designed for XF with an emphasis on quick reaction and power transmission. Made of highly resilient TPU material, it protects the board while boasting high response performance.
Five Holes Highback Rotation – Five highback mounting holes allow rotation at both foot forward angles.
Flat Bottom – The base plate has a flat shape with fewer bumps on the underside, allowing for direct power transmission while still taking care of the top sheet of the board.
Toolless Lever – Find your optimum settings without any tools. The stopper prevents any screws coming loose.
Multi Disc – In addition to the conventional 4x4 screw holes, this disc is also channel-compatible.
Retro-Mod Highback – The outside takes on a classically symmetric shape. The inner asymmetric structure provides resilience while following the movement of the boots, and offers improves torsion control when landing.
Super Tough Nylon – A fiber mix with a medium flex that is perfect for all mountain riding.
Redux Lean Adjuster – A highback adjuster that offers precision adjustments when used in unison with the Flux Micro Adjuster.
Micro Adjuster – Adjust forward lean in 2.5° increments with each click for finer highback settings.
Waffle Strap – Waffle shaped cushioning provides ample hold and unparalleled comfort, and two layer-construction offers direct power transfer.
FTM 5.0 Toe Strap – The middle of the strap uses a more rigid material for increased power transfer, with top and bottom ends using a more flexible material for a better boot fit.
L-Guide – For a smooth in and out. Holds ratchet ladders down.
UU Fit – A 360° wrap evens out pressure for a natural feel and hold.
Beer Buckles – Newly engineered buckles give you more leverage when cranking down on the straps allowing you to get to the last click with minimal effort. Functions as a bottle opener in case of beverage emergencies.
Lightness – 4 (1 Light - 5 Lightest)
