Cosa Nostra Snowboard

The Arbor Cosa Nostra Snowboard is so fun to ride in deep snow, it's almost criminal. Essentially a souped-up version of the Shreddy Krueger, the Cosa Nostra is a poppy, floaty deck built for surfing bottomless powder and pointing it down big mountain lines. Its directional shape and setback stance, responsive feel, and true rocker performance help you impose your will on technical steeps and pow-filled glades with equal authority.

Arbor figured out a way to create a setback, directional board that incorporates all the benefits of System rocker. An elongated nose keeps you effortlessly afloat in bottomless snow and the stubby tail helps you drive through turns. Continuous rocker gives it a floaty, catch-free feel and makes turn initiation easy. The Grip Tech sidecut features two additional contact points along each edge to allow for reliable edge hold on a rocker profile. This means you'll glide effortlessly through bottomless powder, while still retaining edge hold and drive when you find yourself on groomed slopes or variable snow.

A tip-to-tail carbon strut adds pop and response, giving the Cosa Nostra a bit more of a precise, aggressive feel compared to the Shreddy Krueger. And as a nod to their environmentally-friendly ethos, Arbor used scraps of wood from the production of other boards and patched them together to create a beautiful, visually-striking topsheet that also adds extra strength and snap.
