Koa wood longboards
Monday, April 20, 2009
The Fleetwood is a 43″ long carver made with a little wider shape, giving it a more relaxed ride – the Fleetwood is the perfect carver for most longboarders. Arbor Fleetwoods are made with all the personal attention and high grade materials and parts that Arbor is well known for.
Arbor Fleetwood – Hand Made from Hawaiian Koa Wood
Arbor makes their boards from real Hawaiian Koa wood – Koa has the widest range of colors of any wood on Earth. Serious! This wood is beautiful, and has been used for ages by Hawaiians to make surfboards. The wood has strength, flex, and the colors are rich.
When used to make an arbor longboard like the Arbor Fleetwood, the Koa wood gives a smooth, comfortable ride. The wood doesn’t feel soggy, but does give a great response. When standing on the Fleetwood, you feel it give just the right amount under your weight, and when bending into curves, the Fleetwood gives a soft, comfortable feedback.
