Mitts and […] Gear Review Dominic Gawel | March 22, 2024 0 Comments

Gear Review: Arbor Landmark Camber 158 Splitboard After several seasons of riding Arbor Snowboards, they have cemented themselves as some of my favorite snowboards on the market, especially this season’s new Candle Rain. Arbor, however, does not only specialize in solid snowboards as they also make awesome (and reliable) splitboards meant for the backcountry. Recently, they sent me their 158 Landmark Camber Splitboard to test out, and […] Gear Review Jesse | January 23, 2024 0 Comments
