Select Style: palisander / black trucks / trans amber wheels


Overview

This snowboard-inspired drop through is great for relaxed commutes to school or work, and mellow downhill runs. A camber profile and slightly concaved deck helps this complete carve with ease while still taking on steeper hills. You'll notice a gentle flex when standing on the board, and this is to lower your center of gravity so that you will have improved control.

Features

Ride Style

Commuter - Longboards for general cruising, ideal for experienced skaters and beginners alike. Never make the boring mistake of walking again!

Mounting Style

Drop Through - Drop Through boards lower your center of gravity giving you a more responsive and stable ride.

Deck Profile

Standard - Standard decks are the most predictable and some swear they break-in better than other profiles. Great for any skill level.

Deck Shape

Symmetrical - If you ever think you want to ride your board backwards (freeride/freestyle) then a symmetrical longboard shape will help you with the learning curve. Other than that, it's all preference.

Deck Features

Cutouts - Cutouts around the wheels provide the extra space required to prevent wheelbite.

Concave

Mild Concave - Most longboards have a mild concave to give your feet natural curves to lock into. Choosing the right concave can be tough because it's all personal preference but mild concave is always a good place to start.

Deck Thickness

8-Ply - 8 plies sandwiched together for solid stiffness and control.

Deck Construction

Maple + Palisander Construction - Made with hardrock maple and a finish ply of Palisander. Not only is this Rosewood beautiful, one of its properties is a strong resistance to decay.

Trucks

Paris 180mm Trucks - Paris longboard trucks are taking the industry by storm with a purer metal, greater strength, and quicker turns than the industry standard. Paris 180mm Trucks are ready to bomb any hills that you can throw at them.

Bearings

ABEC 7 Bearings - Hardened steel ball bearings rated 7 on the ABEC scale, these move with less resistance at high speeds compared to ABEC 3 or 5 bearings.

Wheels

All Arbor Wheels are made from an environmentally friendly sucrose-based, bio-urethane formula that reduces Arbor's reliance on harmful synthetic materials, without sacrificing an ounce of performance.

69mm (78a) Outlook Wheels - Centerset cruiser wheels that are ready to roll. At 69mm tall, these wheels are great for carving, cruising, pushing and commuting while maintaining a high roll speed smooth feel.

Details

Eco-Conscious Efforts - All wood by-products created during the production are reclaimed for use in other Arbor products or by outside companies. Each board is produced with a water-based sanding sealer and final finish to avoid air pollution.

Beautiful, Quality Board

Arbor Axis Flagship 40" Complete Longboard - palisander / black trucks / trans amber wheels
I recently discovered a love for surfing, but live in a land locked state, so I decided to get a longboard to practice while on land. After looking into a LOT of different boards, I decided on this one and COULD NOT BE HAPPIER. It is a smooth ride with a nice amount of concave in the deck to allow for some juicy turns. The aesthetic is fabulous, too. I love the wood grain and how visible it is on both sides. The amber wheels are classy, too. I tightened the king pins to start, but have enjoyed loosening them gradually to get even more carve in my turns. I stood atop some cheaper boards and could tell they were cheaper; their decks didn't have as much flex or concave, so they were harder to turn. Their wheels were also mounted beneath (instead of drop mounted like these), which meant pushing was a bit trickier, too. I'm guessing those aren't as big of deals for more experienced skaters, but this made a big difference to me. Ultimately, it's a beautiful board that rides fabulously, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone.

Board rides great and very smooth! It was shipped quickly and packaged nicely. I’m not great on a longboard but it works great for cruising around and easy to carve and turn corners.

What a dream. I'm not bombing any hills in my city as we're flat as a pancake but for just cruising around on sidewalks and bike paths, I can't imagine it getting much better. Amazing quality and the wood grain is super unique. I get alot of compliments. Tactics was also great to order from. Shipping was on time and packaging was great.
