Mantra Decon Snowboard delivers approachable camber precision for resort-focused progression
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"The Mantra is such a fun all-mountain board. It’s easy to control, really responsive, and super stable at speed. I’ve recommended this board to a lot of newer riders looking to level up—it’s forgiving without feeling soft and gives you the tools to progress fast."
Who It’s For
Progressing Resort Riders:
The Mantra Decon is ideal for women who are ready to build confidence across the whole resort. It’s approachable enough for intermediates but packed with Arbor’s tech to help riders level up quickly and explore more terrain.
What It’s For
All-Mountain Exploration and Skill Building:
This board is tuned for carving groomers, dipping into side hits, and venturing off-trail with control. Its blend of precision camber and smooth, catch-free fenders makes it a reliable daily driver for progression.
Why We Like It
Forgiving Yet Responsive Ride:
We like the Mantra because it strikes the perfect balance: a directional twin with enough camber for power and edge hold, but softened by lifted fenders and a medium-soft flex for a forgiving, intuitive ride. Add in Grip Tech contact points and a lightweight Highland I Core, and you’ve got a board that makes progression fun and approachable.

Mantra Decon
- Familiarity:
- I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
This is a great board for someone looking for a lively, stable an versatile board at a great price. The wood PowerPly top sheet gives this board lots of Pop and strength. The System Camber gives this board great edge hold without the hookyness of traditional camber. Looks great with the matching Acacia Binding plum/Ivory color.
