Landyachtz Longboards KM FSU Hawgs
KM FSU Hawgs were designed by Landyachtz rider Kyle Martin. These wheels have a low-profile core, and the minimum intrusion into the urethane allows for high resiliency and a long lifespan, which is perfect for sideways mileage. The wide contact patch and supportive core are unique to the wheel market, and they allow for minimal deformation.If you’re looking for a new sliding or freestyle wheel, Landyachtz has you covered.
New Product – Madrid “Bird”
Just in from Madrid- The 39″ Bird. The slight camber allows for an agile feel, while the 7 ply maple gives the board a medium flex level. Top mounted Buck Trucks and Cadillac 70mm wheels make this Madrid a great board for cruising around town, or carving down hills.
It’s a Spring Thing
Spring may bring sunshine and the countdown until Summer, but it also brings one very important thing: more dry pavement. And while college campuses hold some of the best hidden boarding spots, sometimes a longer deck means trickier carving in crowds of coeds. But fear not! The Arbor Pocket Rocket is the solution to all your problems. With the smooth ride of a longboard and the agility of a skateboard, it’s the perfect combination that will easily slide under a desk during class. Its 26” deck with 7ply maple looks classic and like all Arbor boards is made with wood from sustainable sources. While you won’t have the full range of ability a skateboard would have when it comes to tricks, this board will hold up to most all moves you try to throw down. So whether you’re looking for … Read More »
Never Summer’s New Material
Most of the Never Summer Longboards are new this season, and a few have details worth mentioning. This photo shows the Never Summer 41″ Descent V2 CF with a new version of their DuraPic material, which gives the deck a matte carbon fiber texture and provides more resistance to scratching and chipping. The 41″ Heist V2 CF has the same treatment.
Gold Coast Longboards – 19 Models
Gold Coast is one of the new companies we’ve added for the summer season. They have an abundant selection of boards, including Heavy Pile Dart, which is covered with carpet on the top side. And, a few boards with MACTRAC, a plate that has been recessed into the board with large array of mounting holes for very fine adjustment. They have been selling out very fast, but we are working on keeping them all in stock.
The Skateboard Store Stickers
We will be launching The Skateboard Store very soon, and with that, we created a new Wise Owl Sticker and a new TSS Order Sticker.
Gullwing Stalker Trucks
We just received a shipment of the New Gullwing Stalker Trucks and they look very nice. They feature a patented Vibration Damping System built into the truck hanger that creates an incredibly smooth, quiet ride.<p>
Stalkers come with a 9.5″ hanger in Black Rubber or polished Silver. We’re frothing to skate these trucks, so pick up a set and tells us how they ride.
Rush Bearings and Abec9
We added Rush bearings to the site a few weeks ago, and they have been tremendously popular. What is unique about Rush bearings, is that they are one of a growing number of companies adding an Abec9 version.
Like others, I was a little skeptical about an Abec9 rating showing up in the market. After doing some research, there is an Abec9 designation by the American Bearing Manufacturers Association. At this level of precision, the differences in speed between an Abec7 and Abec9 should be very small. The Rush Abec9 bearings are reasonably priced at $22, so they are a minor investment to see for yourself. Always remember to frequently clean and lube your bearings.
Rayne 39″ ISIS Longboard
We received the new Rayne 39″ ISIS today. The ISIS was create by Rayne for Brianne Davies, the leading women’s longboarder in the world . She has dominated women’s speedboard racing three years in a row. Brianne has won 1st place in five different countries, was the 2008 IGSA World Champion and earned the title of Speed Boarder of the Year by Concrete Wave.
The ISIS is a combination of Brianne’s favourite boards and groundbreaking new features condensed into one ULTRA-MEGA-SUPER-SKATE-MACHINE!
Elevator Shock Risers
We added Elevator Shock Risers to our site just a couple of weeks ago, and they have been selling out fast ever since. They are very high quality injection molded rubber risers that offer more colors to match custom completes. They come in 1/8″ and 1/2″ thick.
