I have not personally ridden any of this year's Arbor snowboards.
However, I can tell you that we sold out of them way back in March or
even February. The Arbor Mystic was their hot new board this year and
was voted in the top 10 new boards by Transworld Snowboarding's Buyers
Guide. They were flying off the shelves in our store and on our web
site. I think we sold more than 20 Arbor Mystics alone, and that's
not counting their other great boards like the Draft, A-Frame, Woodie,
etc.

I think these guys make a really unique product that also performs
very well. Arbor owners tend to be those that don't care about having
the latest hip board like a Forum or Burton (although the Mystic could
be the exception to that rule since it's so hip). They also make
really cool longboards with the same Koa wood that they use in their
snowboards. They have some unique features such as grip laminated
into the top of the board instead of grip tape, allowing you to see
the wood grain.

Just my 2 cents...
