A drop-thru carver designed to work with most reverse kingpin geometry trucks and 70mm+ wheels. Has a small nose and tail for manual and shovit tricks.
Drop-thru designed to accomodate the Randall R-II, Paris, Holey, Bear, Gullwing Charger and Tracker Fastrack Trucks. They all work well on this board, but we recommend using at least a 180mm wide truck.
Keep in mind that a softer flex pattern will give you more control and tighter turns at a wide range of speeds, but tend to lose stability slightly at higher speeds. Stiffer flex means more energy potential and more stability at higher speeds, but will not be as forgiving and lively when cruising.
As you get comfortable at higher speeds learn to slide. It’s the safest way to slow down at high speeds and will increase your skills. Otherwise, feel free to ride the board however you please.
