DOWNHILL COLLECTION
VÜGENHAUSEN
HIGHGROUND
PRODIGY
CYPHER
BACKLASH 37 & 40
The Vügenhausen is a top mount built for speed. It offers superior traction and leverage over your trucks for race level performance. A stiff, symmetrical platform and gas pedals give you superior turn and drift control, with a micro drop and rocker for locked-in performance. Artist: Eric Waetzig
The Highground is a tapered topmount that was designed to be a force on the racecourse; a speedboard that features a range of wheelbase positions, unique concave shaping techniques, and carefully placed flares that provide leverage points, and keep you locked in. Artist: Eric Waetzig
The Prodigy employs a range of technology to achieve unprecedented performance. This powerful design has 1/4” drop, 5/8” of rocker, and a mellow “W” concave profile. Expect the leverage and lock needed to stay in your tuck through turns and keep critical levels of speed. Artist: Eric Waetzig
A drop-through board designed to get sideways with lots of features to help you stay that way. This master of the slopes includes 1/2“ of rocker, mellow tub concave, and a slightly larger width. Artist: Eric Waetzig
The Backlash is a downhill design with a true kicktail. It features rocker that runs between the trucks, a snub nose design, and flush routed truck mounts to maintain turning angle while providing superior slide control. No limits - bomb, flip, slide - whatever. New this year is a sized down 37” model. Artist: Eric Waetzig

GT COLLECTION ARTIST SERIES
DEREK NOBBS Northwest artist Derek Nobbs is inspired by all things dark and dusty; a true Northwest Calaverist, who uses macabre maritime backdrops and dark Americana settings. Each of his theatrical pieces, done in watercolor and gouache, are showcased on specially “aged” papers using his “secret recipe,” which may or may not contain coal dust, ambergris, tobacco found in a civil war soldier’s jacket pocket, wolves blood, or the last dregs of whiskey found in his great grandfather’s cellar.

NANAMI COWDROY Born in Sydney, Nanami Cowdroy’s artistic roots reflect both her native Australian and mixed Japanese-European heritage. Nanami’s blend of complex characters and highly detailed objects create a juxtaposition of the foreign and familiar. Her subjects are organic, yet exude a strength and depth; the perfect combination for our bamboo designs.

The hanger is not only reversible, but when flipped there is no rake to throw off the ride. The pivot of the baseplate is self-contained, keeping it from having any weakness. The Blood Orange Bushings (Ultra-High Rebound – 89a durometer) make for an ideal responsiveness.

THE
SUCROSE INITIATIVE 17
The Sucrose Initiative was developed to bring together rider based design, performance across a wide range of conditions, and an effort to start reducing our reliance on petroleum based materials.
BOGART A slightly offset mini-cruiser for around town skating; the Bogart features a wider footprint than most mini wheels, making it roll smother on rough surfaces, while still providing freeride performance for smaller boards.
MOSH \\
A centerset cruiser wheel for skating it all; the Mosh is the perfect mix between quick acceleration and roll speed. This wheel is great for commuting and a good option for freeriding on all size boards.

VICE Our new offset freeride wheel - the Vice was built around Arbor’s new Groovetube core to deliver versatile slide performance at speed. Choose your line, release with ease, and conquer any surface.
SUMMIT \\
The Summit is Arbor’s technical downhill wheel; an offset design that utilizes Arbor’s Groovetube core for a rare balance of grip and drift performance. A leaf-spring sidewall and mid-angle lip work together to create the rebound and power needed to consistantly hug the road.

SUCROSE FORUMLA Our new Sucrose Formula significantly improves slide and grip performance, while allowing us to deliver one of the longest lasting wheels on the market. It also begins to address, in a small but important way, the petroleum that skateboarding leaves on the road. When we skate, especially during slides, we all leave a little granulated urethane behind. This introduces powdered petroleum into the environment. The Sucrose Formula uses a small amount of natural sugar based curative, which helps reduce the petroleum footprint of our wheels.
GROOVETUBE CORES Arbor’s new Groovetube core has a wider, “tube” profile designed to support the whole wheel, which allows it to keep its shape for higher performance riding. The Groovetube provides consistent, more reliable contact with the road during slides, when cornering, at speed, and through landings, while delivering improved grip and better roll.
SIGNATURE SLIDE GLOVES
Arbor’s Signature slide gloves were designed for lightweight performance and breathable comfort. Hemp cloth and neoprene offer comfort and mobility, while double stitching in critical areas improves durability. Gel tipped fingers improve grip when grabbing your rail, while the reflective logo adds visibility while riding in low light conditions.
ABEC 7 STAINLESS STEEL BEARINGS BSS7
Arbor’s ABEC 7 bearings are made with performance in mind. They feature double sided rubber shields for easy cleaning, a blended grease and oil lubricant for long lasting high speed performance, and highly polished stainless steel components for smoother, corrosion resistant all-weather skating. Skate faster - roll longer. SKU: ASGO1 + COLOR CAM
