BRICK

Like the Raccoon, but not the kicks? Then The Brick will be the board for you! Our team developed rocker/tub concave locks your feet where you want them but is still really comfortable just pushing around town. With a variable wheelbase from 27 to 24 inches this board can be a stable downhill monster or a supertechnical freeride machine. It’s up to you!

RACCOON

The Raccoon was made with everything in mind. With kicks and a generous platform this board is easily thrown around and walked across. Tub concave and rocker gives you a really locked in feeling for tucking and stand ups. The rocker makes the board low and stable while also providing a slight wedge to make it nimble and responsive. For 2014 we added a little flex as well! All in all the Racoon is a chameleon of sorts, a one board quiver providing you with the ability to do whatever you want whenever you want. The feeling longboarding is all about! Graphic handpainted by swedish young artist Tony Torro, see more works at tonytorro.com.

D.F.A.

The DFA got a small make-over this year. The gaspedals have been removed giving you a wider platform with more footspace. The 1.2” rocker and deep tub concave keeps you onboard regardless if tucking through a tight sweeper or freeriding switch. The gaspedals for extra traction and grip while doing slides or standups are now in both front and back, perfect for regular and switch standies! They are located on the outside of the concave so that no precious concave is lost. Rider: Erik Ris

FIBREFRESH

The Fibrefresh is a modern take on a classic cruiser. Designed to handle most of everyone’s riding aspects, the construction with 2 layers of fiberglass and 5 layers of wood gives the board a dampened flex, perfect for cruising and carving, but still makes it firm enough to tackle hills. A rockered shape and a wheelbase from 61 to 68 cm makes the Fibrefresh a perfect steppingstone for beginners wanting some light downhill and freeride action. Its kicktail will give you the option of popping ollies over obstacles and curbs. A cruiser 100% designed by our temriders!
