YOW has re-designed the Arica 33″ to your specifications and packed in all the feedback needed to create a great board that meets your needs.
The wide outline combined with the high concave and rocker in nose and tail is an absolute favourite in the YOW line and works perfectly for technical riding and airs. The Arica’s wheelbase is short and gives you sharp, crisp turns.
A high-performance board for the road.
Riding style
The movement on the YOW board is so similar to that on a surfboard that it acts as a surf trainer, as you directly learn the posture and weight shift required for surfing. The Snappers is particularly suitable for fast, tight, agile turns.
The YOW System
The wide rotation of the front truck allows extremely tight turns. The YOW Meraki (S5) Surfskate System comes with a completely revised design for the front truck. All dispensable parts of the old YOW system were removed without changing the patented spring system. The essential parts of the front truck were strengthened, whereby additionally some weight could be saved.
Setup
The trucks and wheels are perfectly adjusted to the board. The soft wheels provide the best grip and speed, even on rough surfaces. The deck comes in a proven maple wood construction.
