Loaded BoardsLoaded Boards Tangent Longboard Commuting Cruising Skateboard Complete (105mm Dad BOD 77a Wheels, Paris 150 50° Trucks)
Main highlights- UNRIVALED CONTROL – The Tangent is easy to control even at high commuting speeds thanks to its lower ride height and rocker profile, which wedges the trucks slightly for tighter turning. The extra 3” of board length makes it more stable and accommodates a larger audience. The mega-upturned/lifted corners provide a palpable reference point for foot positioning and to prevent foot bite. Don't turn your feet into street meat!
- TWO SETUPS – Paris 150mm trucks and your choice of Orangatang 105mm Dad Bod (77a blue) or 85mm Caguama (80a orange) wheels. The Dad Bod setup carries massive momentum and can go over anything for cushy cruising. The Caguama setup is a fun, more nimble option, providing quick acceleration and a lower stance.
- RELAXED ERGONOMICS – The rocker profile gives the rider a locked-in, secure, laid-back feel. The concave “tub” design is flat in the middle and slopes up towards the side rails of the deck, resulting in added comfort, responsiveness, and agility. Greater real estate provides the option to adjust your stance over longer distances and to alternate pushing between mongo and regular.
- INNOVATIVE CONSTRUCTION – Maple and basalt composite construction provides lightweight durability while also ensuring a smooth ride thanks to a subtle, long-lasting damp flex. Coarser griptape at the ends relays tactile feedback for intuitive foot positioning.
- GO FASTER, FURTHER – Explore the unexpected with speed and momentum. Sporting large wheels (up to 105mm) and responsive trucks, the Tangent is built to get you moving fast and to keep your speed. It’s a comfortable performance double-drop bracket board to explore the unexplored.
