Arbor blend astonishing performance with some of the most beautiful grpahics in the industry. It's hard not to just mount the board on the wall straight away, but to test the Watchtower was far too tempting.

The Watchtower excels at blistering speeds on the mountain and I couldn't believe how stable the board was as I managed to top 60mph whilst heading for the next lift down.

The board accelerates amazingly too and loves to be thrown into the steep and deep. Its tapered shape really impressed me in the pow feeling surprisingly cruisy just like catching a wave in the ocean.

Happy all over the mountain, the Watchtower felt relaxed and mellow when navigating cat tracks or just slowly making your way down.

Definitely not a beginner's board, the Watchtower is for more confident riders who want a great board for shredding the whole mountain when they aren't smashing through powder or setting land speed records.
