A State of Mind Longboard

The 2009 line up of arbor longboards has brought about several new boards. My favorite is definitely the new mindstate board. It is a compact flex styled longboard that is great for cruising and carving. This board was designed to create fun carves at you generate energetic rebounding turns with the flex pattern of the board. It has four plies of hardrock maple and reinforced with fiberglass to create strength and also give it the flexible feel while keeping the board light weight to maximize performance! The top layer of koa wood also helps add pop out of the turns giving it a very unique feel unlike any other longboard.

I prefer to keep the arbor mindstate longboard light weight as that is what it was designed for. A light high performance longboard truck is the randal r-ii downhill styled truck. A nice soft gushy grippy wheel from 65-70mm in size is perfect for this board and will help for optimal turns. Bones bearings are the best on the market and the bones reds are a great product for a great price so that is what I recommend for this board!
