BOARD SELECTOR

If you’re in need of some guidance in choosing the right board for you or someone else this is the right place. While most skateboards can be ridden a myriad of ways here are some guidelines to help narrow your choices. If you click on the designated styles below you it’ll show you groups of different boards that fit that style. Most boards fit multiple riding styles so don’t be surprised when you see the same board in multiple groups. As always you can email us directly for more details.

HOW TO RIDE IT

Sidewinder

If you prefer a longer wheelbase when you skate but crave a tighter turning radius than a longer board is typically capable of then the Sidewinder Series is for you. The unique double pivot design of the Sidewinders turns extremely well and makes a longer board feel like a shorter one. After riding a board with Sidewinders many people never go back to a typical truck set up. Try one for yourself!

Crusher

Wherever you typically head out to skate you’re not just looking to show up and ride you’re looking to Crush It! These boards are uniquely shaped and assembled with components that can style you through some flatland tricks, bang a run through the park or smooth out that rough pavement on your commute. If you need a do it all board you’re in the right place.

Carving

If you like boards that hold their line well in turns, and don't slide out very much, then keep an eye out for this designation. That doesn't mean that they won't slide at all, rather that they are typically set up with lipped wheels that grip better while maintaining speed.

Commuter

Just about every board we make is suitable for getting your from Point A to B, but boards designated as Commuter are typically easier to push because they sit lower to the ground and are well suited to travel long distances... or just get you to work without having to fight traffic. They typically have longer wheel bases, and larger diameter wheels to maintain speed as well.

Park

Skateparks vary greatly throughout the world, and boards designated as Park can handle just about any of them. These boards are typically pressed on traditional shortboard molds, and feature kicks in both the nose and the tail. They are ideal for tearing up transitions, ramps, funboxes, and just about anything you can hope to skate.

Freeride

Freeride boards are usually best suited for all types of sliding, flat ground tricks, as well as low to medium speed carving. If you're looking to write your name on the street in "thane" lines, then you want a Freeride board.
