Arbor Women’s Veda Camber Snowboard 2023

Always equipped with the proper tools for her next adventure, Marie and her ever-evolving riding style bring you the best version of her Veda for the 2022/23 season. Drawing on her big mountain prowess, the Veda evolves our System Camber with 1.5° uprise fenders, for an increased float, more powerful turn initiation, and drive with increased edge hold.

Mindfully Crafted in design collaboration with Marie-France Roy.

Profile: Camber
Terrain: Park/Powder/Resort
Response: Medium

Features:

• Hand Dyed Ash Powerply
  
• R.A.P. Topless Technologies: A build process in which we eliminate the need for our Bio-Plastic Topsheet, creating a lighter, more eco-friendly ride.
  
• FSC Certified Highland II Core: A newly developed screening process has allowed us to hand select the very lightest and highest quality paulownia from our sourcing partners. The result is a lighter, more responsive version of our FSC Certified Highland Core known for highly reliable return and long-lasting durability.
• Mixed Glassing: A triax over biax lay–up that’s best for versatility: pow, backcountry, groomers, jumps, and more.
  
• 360* Fully Wrapped Sidewalls: A 360–degree, fully wrapped sidewall that 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.
  
• Recycled Steel Edges: Highly durable, recycled steed edges embody two of Arbor’s key values: quality and sustainability.
• Entropy Bio-Resin: All Powerplys and R.A.P. Topless Tech veneers will be made with Bio-Resin, a replacement for traditional petroleum based resin that doesn’t affect performance or usability. The ingredients that go into Bio-Resin 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).
  
• 1.5 Uprise Fenders: Uprise Fenders pull the outside contact zones off the snow with angled 3º risers on all Camber System designs.
• Wend Natural Wax: All Arbor snowboards hit the shop floor ready to ride with Wend Natural Wax.
  
• Factory Tuned: Arbor detunes the tip and tail contact points on all of our snowboards for a catch-free ride before they leave the factory.
• .8 cm Taper: A shaping technique that narrows the profile of the snowboard towards the rear contact points. Tapered snowboards will have a wider nose and narrower tail, allowing the tail of the board to sink in deeper snow creating natural float and cleaner tracking.
• 2×4 14 Pack Inserts

Profile: Camber

Precision, control and pop.

The side profile of camber looks like a rainbow. Tried and true, camber has been the dominant board bend in the snowboard industry for almost 40 years. Adopted from the bend of alpine skis, camber snowboards deliver precise turning and edge control, with spring-loaded pop due to the bend in the board, providing better jumping characteristics. Advanced riders tend to prefer this bend, especially for hard carving and high-speed riding. Even when it comes to softer park snowboards, camber boards deliver exceptional pop and control.

However, they are not as forgiving of mistakes and can be more difficult to learn or progress on than a rocker or hybrid bend.

Shape: Directional

A smooth, reliable ride.

Directional shapes generally feature a longer, softer nose and a shorter, stiffer tail. These shapes thrive in an all-mountain environment, as they possess the ability to ride more smoothly than their twin-tip counterparts and behave more reliably in variable snow conditions, anywhere from choppy snow to deeper powder. More twin-looking directional shapes where the difference between nose and tail appear minimal will perform best as crossover freestyle snowboards for those looking to still access the park, while more exaggerated differences will excel for additional float in deep powder.

Flex: 5 (Scale 1 – 10)

Versatility at its finest. From the park to the peak and anywhere in between.

Base: Sintered

A higher molecular weight, sintered base that provides added durability and speed.
