DEREK NOBBSNorthwest 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.

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.

with ease, and conquer any surface.

SUMMITThe 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.

S U C R O S E F O R U M L AOur 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.
G R O O V E T U B E C O R E SArbor’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.
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.
