About Arbor

Arbor Collective was founded in 1995 by Bob Carlson and Chris Jensen. It launched with snowboards using sustainably sourced wood topsheets and cores, aiming to reduce plastics in boardsports manufacturing.

A skateboard line followed after the founders repurposed old snowboards into long-wheelbase skates. Skate products emphasize bamboo, recycled materials, and bio-urethane alongside wood construction.

Arbor makes snowboards, skateboards (cruisers, longboards, street shapes, surfskates), and softgoods. A portion of sales supports forest restoration through its Returning Roots program.
