I'm 6'6", 215-220 lbs. with all my gear on, and a size 13.5 boot. Is the 166 too small? Should I just petition backcountry to start stocking the Roundhouse? question_106104 Thu, 07 May 2009 09:24:02 GMT Im looking into buying a board to convert into a split for touring/mountaineering http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/ARB0081/Arbor-A-Frame-Snowboard.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_105497#question_105497 Arbor A-Frame Snowboard Im looking into buying a board to convert into a split for touring/mountaineering and backcountry only. Should I go with the A-Frame or Element? I'll be carrying 50+lbs. pack and gear on a trip to Mt. Elbrus for an 8,000 ft descent and have no experience with a split other than holding one.

I'm 6', 170 lbs. and an advanced rider. Will I gain any speed or control going with the 158 over the 154?

An advanced rider. Steeps, trees and some jumping are what I do the most. I'm interested in the element, the only issue is the length of your available boards. Is the 165 too long. question_81162 Sun, 15 Feb 2009 13:46:40 GMT I'm trying to decide betweent he Arbor A-Frame and the Arbor http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/ARB0081/Arbor-A-Frame-Snowboard.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_80114#question_80114 Arbor A-Frame Snowboard I'm trying to decide betweent he Arbor A-Frame and the Arbor Element. I'll be using the board a few days a year out west, a few days a year in the east. I'm an advanced boarder and I spend most of my time in the trees, backcountry, and on bumps. I never venture into the park.I'm 6'-0" 170lbs, so I'm thinking the 161 Element or the 162 A-Frame.

I rode on a 55-Agent (which is 155 I believe). I am trying to decide which length of the A-Frame to buy. I have read that it is really easy to turn, so maybe I will go for the next step up above the 154, which is a 158, or I could just go 1 cm lower from a 155 to a 154. I also weigh 150-160, 5'8 Is this all preference? What will the longer board give me besides stability? Any help would be much appreciated. question_67608 Wed, 14 Jan 2009 12:45:41 GMT My wife recently baught me the following combo for christmas http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Arbor-Crossbow-Snowboard/ARB0010M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_64490#question_64490 Arbor Crossbow Snowboard My wife recently baught me the following combo for christmas Arbor Crossbow with Flow M9 bindings. I have been a skier for 20 years and looking to try something new and enjoy the comfy boots. I feel that I will pick it up quickly as I am still young and in good shape. Is this a good combo for an all-mountan board that will perform once I move beyond the beginner level? I have also heard mixed reviews on the flow bindings, should I move to a more standard style of binding? question_64490 Tue, 06 Jan 2009 21:25:13 GMT I've heard that the board is sometimes too fast.

I was an intermediate/ advanced all mountain rider but haven't had much time to go in the last 6-7 years. My last deck was a Ride Control 163 and I'm looking to upgrade. I'm comparing the Arbor Crossbow 166, Arbor Roundhouse 163 and Arbor Roundhouse 167. For my size and preferences is one of the lengths and styles of board preferable for me? I don't do much park any more but still enjoy steep hardpack, powder, trees and the occasional mogul field.
