Arbor Mantra

Yes, with a 4/10 flex rating, this board is soft and forgiving enough for beginners to learn on, while still offering enough performance for intermediate riders to progress in the park or across the mountain.

The System Camber provides a responsive, poppy feel that gives you reliable edge hold on hardpack, but it is tuned to be less catchy than traditional camber, making it easier to initiate turns and ride smoothly.

Absolutely. The Grip-Tech tri-radial sidecut creates contact points underfoot that act like a serrated edge, significantly improving your grip and control when conditions get firm or icy.

Like all sintered bases, it is porous and absorbs wax well, which keeps you moving fast. You should wax it regularly to maintain its speed and durability, especially compared to an extruded base.

Arbor uses several eco-conscious materials, including a bio-plastic topsheet derived from castor bean oil, bio-resin for construction, and recycled steel edges, all of which reduce the board's carbon footprint without sacrificing durability.

Yes, the Mantra uses a standard 2x4 Ten Pack insert pattern, which is compatible with almost all major binding brands on the market.
