Arbor Axis Photo 40" Complete Longboard
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 board 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
Commuter - Longboards for general cruising, ideal for experienced skaters and beginners alike. Never make the boring mistake of walking again!
Drop Through - Drop Through boards lower your center of gravity giving you a more responsive and stable ride.
Camber - Camber gives you a charged feeling underfoot and better leverage for turns. They can feel a bit more like a spring at first but any rider will appreciate how this makes the board responsive.
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.
Cutouts - Cutouts around the wheels provide the extra space required to prevent wheelbite.
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.
8-Ply - 8 plies sandwiched together for solid stiffness and control.
Maple + Walnut Construction - Hardrock maple and a finish ply of Black Walnut, all of which are sustainably sourced. Walnut wood is naturally dense and helps provide a durable top layer below your feet.
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.
ABEC 5 Bearings with Spacers - A smooth, long-lasting glide. Spacers are included to evenly distribute pressures, lengthening the life of your bearings.
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.
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.
