| "Loaded Longboard - Cantellated Tesseract" |
"Loaded boards are proud to now offer the Cantellated single-kick variation of the Tesseract.Inspired by Loaded ambassadors DIY deck-chopping experiments, the Cantellated Tesseract offers a lighter and more compact alternative for those who love to shred and ollie with unidirectional style.The Cantellated Tesseract sports a single tail kick to meet your ollie-popping, tick-tacking, and manual-balancing needs. The Cantellated Tesseracts tail features a wider and fuller shape that promotes more frequent and emphatic use than its double-kick cousin. The width of the board stays consistent all the way up to the blunted nose for predictable leverage for slides and tricks anywhere on the board.To see this new board carving some shapes, watch the new video Denizens of the Petrified Dunes to the left!Setup Recommendations:The 3.5 wedging angle of these boards allows for a wide range of interesting hardware configurations. We find that a truck with a lower kingpin angle (below 45) works synergistically with the wedging angle to provide a versatile balance of lean and turn with a low ride height. A truck with a higher kingpin angle (above 45) works best with a soft 3-4 wedged riser to simultaneously preserve the steering geometry and damp vibrations.Their powerful pop and lightweight construction pair best with a light and small wheel for freestyle and technical freeride enthusiasts. We ride Orangatang Fat Free (65mm) or Keanu (66mm) to keep the ollies high and swing weight low. Scale up to a mid- to high-diameter wheel such as Orangatang Kilmer (69mm), Stimulus (70mm), Moronga (72.5mm), Cage (73mm), or Durian (75mm) for higher roll speed, smoother performance on rough pavement, and increased longevity.For downhill applications, both boards can accommodate up to an 80mm race wheel (such as the Orangatang Kegel). Be sure to fine tune your setup with the appropriate hardware (risers, bushings, washers) to provide the performance youre after, and always check for wheelbite before you ride.CHOOSE FROM THE SETUP OPTIONS BELOW! If wheel type/colour options are available, please email us after ordering with your wheel choice and order number. Orangatangs are available in Orange 80a, Purple 83a or Yellow 86a.

| "Loaded Longboard - Truncated Tesseract" |
"Loaded boards are proud to now offer the Truncated no-kick variation of the Tesseract. Inspired by Loaded ambassadors DIY deck-chopping experiments, the Truncated Tesseract is a pared-down platform for canyon-carving and downhill-racing geeks.The Truncated Tesseract has gone through autonomy, dropping appendages in favour of a more traditional and race-driven shape while retaining all the performance-driven ergonomics and construction of its precursor. The board retains maximum width all the way back to the bolts for high cornering leverage and security during slides. The nose tapers gently to more effectively accommodate the front foot in a forward-facing speed tuck and is unobtrusive while drafting and riding in tight packs.To see this new board carving some shapes, watch the new video Denizens of the Petrified Dunes to the left!Setup Recommendations:The 3.5 wedging angle of these boards allows for a wide range of interesting hardware configurations. We find that a truck with a lower kingpin angle (below 45) works synergistically with the wedging angle to provide a versatile balance of lean and turn with a low ride height. A truck with a higher kingpin angle (above 45) works best with a soft 3-4 wedged riser to simultaneously preserve the steering geometry and damp vibrations.Their powerful pop and lightweight construction pair best with a light and small wheel for freestyle and technical freeride enthusiasts. We ride Orangatang Fat Free (65mm) or Keanu (66mm) to keep the ollies high and swing weight low. Scale up to a mid- to high-diameter wheel such as Orangatang Kilmer (69mm), Stimulus (70mm), Moronga (72.5mm), Cage (73mm), or Durian (75mm) for higher roll speed, smoother performance on rough pavement, and increased longevity.For downhill applications, both boards can accommodate up to an 80mm race wheel (such as the Orangatang Kegel).

| "Loaded Longboard - Truncated Tesseract" |
"Loaded boards are proud to now offer the Truncated no-kick variation of the Tesseract. Inspired by Loaded ambassadors DIY deck-chopping experiments, the Truncated Tesseract is a pared-down platform for canyon-carving and downhill-racing geeks.The Truncated Tesseract has gone through autonomy, dropping appendages in favour of a more traditional and race-driven shape while retaining all the performance-driven ergonomics and construction of its precursor. The board retains maximum width all the way back to the bolts for high cornering leverage and security during slides. The nose tapers gently to more effectively accommodate the front foot in a forward-facing speed tuck and is unobtrusive while drafting and riding in tight packs.To see this new board carving some shapes, watch the new video Denizens of the Petrified Dunes to the left!Setup Recommendations:The 3.5 wedging angle of these boards allows for a wide range of interesting hardware configurations. We find that a truck with a lower kingpin angle (below 45) works synergistically with the wedging angle to provide a versatile balance of lean and turn with a low ride height. A truck with a higher kingpin angle (above 45) works best with a soft 3-4 wedged riser to simultaneously preserve the steering geometry and damp vibrations.Their powerful pop and lightweight construction pair best with a light and small wheel for freestyle and technical freeride enthusiasts. We ride Orangatang Fat Free (65mm) or Keanu (66mm) to keep the ollies high and swing weight low. Scale up to a mid- to high-diameter wheel such as Orangatang Kilmer (69mm), Stimulus (70mm), Moronga (72.5mm), Cage (73mm), or Durian (75mm) for higher roll speed, smoother performance on rough pavement, and increased longevity.For downhill applications, both boards can accommodate up to an 80mm race wheel (such as the Orangatang Kegel).

| "Loaded Longboard Deck - Sama 2015" |
"New design. Same exquisite quality.By using bamboo as the material of choice for all the boards from 2006 onwards, doors were opened for Loaded to create a flexy drop-through board. Over the coming years, subtle changes were made to the Dervish but the time came for more significant changes and the Sama was born.Once again the time has come for the guys at Loaded to give the much loved Sama a new outfit. Continuing to explore colour theory and geometry, Loaded looked deeper into Bauhaus principles to create this homage to the circle. By exposing multiple forms over one another, Loaded were able to exemplify the arcing and flowing movements possible on this carving board and honour the whirling and spiritual experience debuted by its namesake, the Dervish.With Loaded's Sama board, the design team faced a unique challenge. They loved how the original Dervish felt, but wanted to enhance the features and increase versatility. After modifications to the width, concave, and thickness of the deck the results were in, and the Sama had a new overall feel when riding. A vertically laminated bamboo core is sandwiched between layers of triaxial fibreglass and a bamboo bottom veneer. The deck is pressed with concave and cambered curvatures to create a lively, responsive ride with high energy return.Features:Through Width: Many different width and shape options were explored while prototyping the Sama. Using design software and curvature calculations, various different width were extensively tested and subtle changes to the deck shape made when necessary until the deck provided a satisfactory balance of comfort, edge control, and responsiveness.Concave: The Sama also received a more pronounced concave profile, which is further enhanced by the increased deck width. The result is improved edge feel for turn initiation and extra control while sliding.Nose & Tail Kicks: To keep up with the current calibre of freestyle riding, the Sama was given the most tasteful of nose-jobs. After testing several new shapes and sizes, Loaded added subtle kicks to increase pop and to lock your feet in. The kicks are reinforced with an extra layer of fibreglass for added stiffness and durability.grip tape: A six-piece symmetrical grip tape pattern was designed with performance and elegance in mind. The two sections at the kicks use an aggressive, rougher-grit grip to provide enhanced control and security for manuals and freestyle tricks. The four middle sections use a milder, finer-grit grip (comparable to street skate grip) to facilitate dancing and footwork manoeuvres. The segmented design yields functional coverage without interfering with the boards flex pattern.Camber: The Samas versatility lends it to many disciplines, but at its heart lies a deeply rooted passion for carving. The cambered platform and weight-tailored flex pattern work together synergistically to provide a lively, flowing ride."

| "Loaded Longboard - Tesseract" |
"Stash the quiver, clear your mind, and let the Tesseract be your versatile companion in the quest for four-wheeled illumination.The Tesseract integrates rocker, wheel well flares, W concave, and multiple wheelbase options into a lightweight package designed for big mountain roads, high speeds, snappy slides, lofty ollies, and techy manual combos. Escape the three-dimensional confines of contemporary skateboarding and embrace the fourth dimension.RockerSymmetrical rocker throughout the deck cups the outer edges of your feet and creates a subtle locked-in sensation, helping you stay firmly planted in slides and facilitating confident and natural movement up and down the length of the board. Additionally, rocker slightly lowers your center of gravity for enhanced stability. Wheel Well FlaresThe Tesseract features flared wheel wells that increase wheel clearance and also create surface transitions that provide lateral and longitudinal support for your feet, both inside the trucks and on the kicktails. These flares promote board awareness and keep your feet locked into a compound contoured pocket while sliding, cornering, and tucking. ""W"" ConcaveWe've designed the Tesseract with an intuitive W concave to enhance rider control in all toeside manoeuvres. The central hump is tall yet wide, providing strong lateral support near the transitions without compromising arch comfort. The W concave on the Tesseract follows a mellow elliptical profile and fades gradually in amplitude approaching the trucks, disappearing 3/4"" behind the innermost mounting holes. This design allows the inside edges of your feet to nestle up against the W (for toeside slides) while also allowing the outside of your foot to rest in a more radial dish just behind the flared wheel wells (for comfort while tucking on long downhill runs). Progressive yet mild rail concave provides optimal edge control without sacrificing comfort.Symmetrical Shape: The Tesseract's outline shape is designed for maximum functionality and versatility. A slight taper toward the kicktails places the greatest width at the center of the board (for rear-foot leverage while tucking in a shorter stance) but is mild enough to keep the deck wide at the neck, over the bolts, and on the tails for plenty of leverage and control in a variety of stances. Completely symmetrical shape and contours guarantee that the Tesseract is ready for anything you throw its way - in any stance or orientation. KicktailsDesigned to satiate both freeride and freestyle appetites, the Tesseract is endowed with tailored kicktails to get the job done with gusto. The width has been dialled in to provide exceptional toe and heel edge control, and the length and upturned tips generate powerful pop and accommodate the entire width of your foot. Subtle dished concave keeps your shoes glued to the board and aids in catching tricks into manuals and pivots. The contours of the kicktails blend in a tight transition with the outer surfaces of the wheel well flares to create compound contoured pockets for your feet both over and outside of the bolts, contributing to enhanced control for manuals and 360 slides. Variable WheelbaseThe Tesseract offers both 24.5"" and 26"" wheelbase options, allowing you to fine tune your setup based on your riding style and specific truck geometry. Move your axles in for quicker pop, increased agility, higher traction, and lower swing weight; move them out for greater stability and more lean.Our pressing need to explore the unconventional in skateboarding has influenced our design sensibilities and in late 2012 we released a downhill board with the intention to ollie and flip (Chubby Unicorn) and a double-kick with the ability to slide and blast down hills (Kanthaka). Fast forward to 2013.Constant swapping, chopping, tweaking, and re-drilling revealed an opportunity for expansion in our freeride line-up. Leveraging this growing knowledge base we regrouped and developed a multitude of exciting ideas that planted the seeds for the Tesseract and numerous future projects. The parameters of the Tesseract were decided upon iteratively, and a lot of time was spent exploring exotic materials and constructions resulting in a stiff, light, and damp.Two layers of custom fibreglass/epoxy skins sandwich two vertically-laminated bamboo cores to create a stiff yet light and damp structure. Laminated to the bottom of the board is a layer of cork which provides vibration damping and (as we learned to our surprise during testing) a significant level of durability. The granular, non-directional structure of the cork helps prevent abrasive damage from propagating (in contrast to a traditional wood or bamboo veneer with long, oriented fibres).The tessellated pattern in the cork is generated in 4-dimensional space and can only be fully understood if you lick it.Set Up Options:The Tesseract is available in the following set up options for the ultimate customised ride.Premium 1 Set Up:Paris 180s Raw Trucks, Orangatang* InHeats, Durians, Baluts or Cage and Jehu Abec 5BearingsPremium 2Set Up:Paris 180s RawTrucks, Orangatang* 4President, Kilmer or Stimulus and Jehu Abec 5BearingsPremium 3Set Up:Paris 180's Black/Black, Black/Gold or Black/Raw Trucks, Orangatang* InHeats, Durians, Baluts or Cage and Jehu Abec 5BearingsPremium 4Set Up:Paris 180's Crimson Slide or Purple PassionTrucks, Orangatang* 4President, Kilmer or Stimulus and Jehu Abec 5BearingsPremium 5Set Up:Randal R-2 Trucks (180mm)Trucks, Orangatang* InHeats, Durians, Baluts or Cage and Jehu Abec 5 BearingsPremium 6Set Up:Randal R-2 Trucks (180mm)Trucks, Orangatang* 4President, Kilmer or Stimulus and Jehu Abec 5BearingsPremium 7Set Up:Paris 180's Black::Black/Gold/RawTrucks, Orangatang* FatFree or Keanu and Jehu Abec 5BearingsPremium 8Set Up:Paris 180's Crimson Slide or Purple PassionTrucks, Orangatang* FatFree or Keanu and Jehu Abec 5BearingsPremium 9Set Up:Paris 180's Black::Black/Gold/RawTrucks, Orangatang* Moronga and Jehu Abec 5BearingsPremium 10Set Up:Bear Grizzly 852's BlackTrucks, Orangatang* 4President, Kilmer or Stimulus and Jehu Abec 5BearingsPremium 11Set Up:Paris 180s RawTrucks, Retro 70mm ZigZags** and Jehu Abec 5BearingsOrangatangs are available in Orange 80a, Purple 83a or Yellow 86a.ZigZags are currently available in Red (78a), Lime (80a), Lemon (83a) or Orange (86a)If wheel options are available,please email us after ordering with your wheel choice and order number."

"Stash the quiver, clear your mind, and let the Tesseract be your versatile companion in the quest for four-wheeled illumination.The Tesseract integrates rocker, wheel well flares, W concave, and multiple wheelbase options into a lightweight package designed for big mountain roads, high speeds, snappy slides, lofty ollies, and techy manual combos. Escape the three-dimensional confines of contemporary skateboarding and embrace the fourth dimension.RockerSymmetrical rocker throughout the deck cups the outer edges of your feet and creates a subtle locked-in sensation, helping you stay firmly planted in slides and facilitating confident and natural movement up and down the length of the board. Additionally, rocker slightly lowers your center of gravity for enhanced stability. Wheel Well FlaresThe Tesseract features flared wheel wells that increase wheel clearance and also create surface transitions that provide lateral and longitudinal support for your feet, both inside the trucks and on the kicktails. These flares promote board awareness and keep your feet locked into a compound contoured pocket while sliding, cornering, and tucking. ""W"" ConcaveWe've designed the Tesseract with an intuitive W concave to enhance rider control in all toeside manoeuvres. The central hump is tall yet wide, providing strong lateral support near the transitions without compromising arch comfort. The W concave on the Tesseract follows a mellow elliptical profile and fades gradually in amplitude approaching the trucks, disappearing 3/4"" behind the innermost mounting holes. This design allows the inside edges of your feet to nestle up against the W (for toeside slides) while also allowing the outside of your foot to rest in a more radial dish just behind the flared wheel wells (for comfort while tucking on long downhill runs). Progressive yet mild rail concave provides optimal edge control without sacrificing comfort.Symmetrical Shape: The Tesseract's outline shape is designed for maximum functionality and versatility. A slight taper toward the kicktails places the greatest width at the center of the board (for rear-foot leverage while tucking in a shorter stance) but is mild enough to keep the deck wide at the neck, over the bolts, and on the tails for plenty of leverage and control in a variety of stances. Completely symmetrical shape and contours guarantee that the Tesseract is ready for anything you throw its way - in any stance or orientation. KicktailsDesigned to satiate both freeride and freestyle appetites, the Tesseract is endowed with tailored kicktails to get the job done with gusto. The width has been dialled in to provide exceptional toe and heel edge control, and the length and upturned tips generate powerful pop and accommodate the entire width of your foot. Subtle dished concave keeps your shoes glued to the board and aids in catching tricks into manuals and pivots. The contours of the kicktails blend in a tight transition with the outer surfaces of the wheel well flares to create compound contoured pockets for your feet both over and outside of the bolts, contributing to enhanced control for manuals and 360 slides. Variable WheelbaseThe Tesseract offers both 24.5"" and 26"" wheelbase options, allowing you to fine tune your setup based on your riding style and specific truck geometry. Move your axles in for quicker pop, increased agility, higher traction, and lower swing weight; move them out for greater stability and more lean.Our pressing need to explore the unconventional in skateboarding has influenced our design sensibilities and in late 2012 we released a downhill board with the intention to ollie and flip (Chubby Unicorn) and a double-kick with the ability to slide and blast down hills (Kanthaka). Fast forward to 2013.Constant swapping, chopping, tweaking, and re-drilling revealed an opportunity for expansion in our freeride line-up. Leveraging this growing knowledge base we regrouped and developed a multitude of exciting ideas that planted the seeds for the Tesseract and numerous future projects. The parameters of the Tesseract were decided upon iteratively, and a lot of time was spent exploring exotic materials and constructions resulting in a stiff, light, and damp.Two layers of custom fibreglass/epoxy skins sandwich two vertically-laminated bamboo cores to create a stiff yet light and damp structure.

| "Loaded Longboard - Tesseract" |
"Stash the quiver, clear your mind, and let the Tesseract be your versatile companion in the quest for four-wheeled illumination.The Tesseract integrates rocker, wheel well flares, W concave, and multiple wheelbase options into a lightweight package designed for big mountain roads, high speeds, snappy slides, lofty ollies, and techy manual combos. Escape the three-dimensional confines of contemporary skateboarding and embrace the fourth dimension.RockerSymmetrical rocker throughout the deck cups the outer edges of your feet and creates a subtle locked-in sensation, helping you stay firmly planted in slides and facilitating confident and natural movement up and down the length of the board. Additionally, rocker slightly lowers your center of gravity for enhanced stability. Wheel Well FlaresThe Tesseract features flared wheel wells that increase wheel clearance and also create surface transitions that provide lateral and longitudinal support for your feet, both inside the trucks and on the kicktails. These flares promote board awareness and keep your feet locked into a compound contoured pocket while sliding, cornering, and tucking. ""W"" ConcaveWe've designed the Tesseract with an intuitive W concave to enhance rider control in all toeside manoeuvres. The central hump is tall yet wide, providing strong lateral support near the transitions without compromising arch comfort. The W concave on the Tesseract follows a mellow elliptical profile and fades gradually in amplitude approaching the trucks, disappearing 3/4"" behind the innermost mounting holes. This design allows the inside edges of your feet to nestle up against the W (for toeside slides) while also allowing the outside of your foot to rest in a more radial dish just behind the flared wheel wells (for comfort while tucking on long downhill runs). Progressive yet mild rail concave provides optimal edge control without sacrificing comfort.Symmetrical Shape: The Tesseract's outline shape is designed for maximum functionality and versatility. A slight taper toward the kicktails places the greatest width at the center of the board (for rear-foot leverage while tucking in a shorter stance) but is mild enough to keep the deck wide at the neck, over the bolts, and on the tails for plenty of leverage and control in a variety of stances. Completely symmetrical shape and contours guarantee that the Tesseract is ready for anything you throw its way - in any stance or orientation. KicktailsDesigned to satiate both freeride and freestyle appetites, the Tesseract is endowed with tailored kicktails to get the job done with gusto. The width has been dialled in to provide exceptional toe and heel edge control, and the length and upturned tips generate powerful pop and accommodate the entire width of your foot. Subtle dished concave keeps your shoes glued to the board and aids in catching tricks into manuals and pivots. The contours of the kicktails blend in a tight transition with the outer surfaces of the wheel well flares to create compound contoured pockets for your feet both over and outside of the bolts, contributing to enhanced control for manuals and 360 slides. Variable WheelbaseThe Tesseract offers both 24.5"" and 26"" wheelbase options, allowing you to fine tune your setup based on your riding style and specific truck geometry. Move your axles in for quicker pop, increased agility, higher traction, and lower swing weight; move them out for greater stability and more lean.Our pressing need to explore the unconventional in skateboarding has influenced our design sensibilities and in late 2012 we released a downhill board with the intention to ollie and flip (Chubby Unicorn) and a double-kick with the ability to slide and blast down hills (Kanthaka). Fast forward to 2013.Constant swapping, chopping, tweaking, and re-drilling revealed an opportunity for expansion in our freeride line-up. Leveraging this growing knowledge base we regrouped and developed a multitude of exciting ideas that planted the seeds for the Tesseract and numerous future projects. The parameters of the Tesseract were decided upon iteratively, and a lot of time was spent exploring exotic materials and constructions resulting in a stiff, light, and damp.Two layers of custom fibreglass/epoxy skins sandwich two vertically-laminated bamboo cores to create a stiff yet light and damp structure.

| "Loaded Longboard Deck - Icarus" |
"The Icarus: The carving board, reimagined.Loaded pioneered the flexible dropthru board with the Dervish in 2007 and the Tan Tien in 2010. Weve returned to our carving roots using many of the things learned over the past few years from our freeride boards, downhill boards, and our snowboard (with design cues from bacon). Combining wheel flares, cork, a balanced flex pattern and novel manufacturing methods, the Icarus is a milestone in our exploration of the soulful carving experience.SPECSLength: 38.4 (97.5 cm)Width: 8.6 (22 cm)Wheelbase: 28.25 (71.76 cm)Weight: 2.9 lbs (1.3 kg)FLEXFlex 1: 170-250+lbs / 75-115+kgFlex 2: 75-200+lbs / 35-90+kgFEATURESPowerful FlexVertically laminated bamboo and fiberglass construction pair with a cambered profile and a variable concave for a lively and engaging ride. The cork bottom helps dampen out vibrations without compromising the liveliness.User FriendlyDrop-through truck mounting positions the deck lower to the ground for easier, more efficient pushing and enhanced stability. Light weight and compact size make the Icarus intuitive and commuter friendly.Shapely CurvesThe right curves in the right places enhance rider ergonomics while contributing to a responsive and high-performance ride. Wheel well flares accommodate big wheels and improve turning leverage and control. Variable concave yields a consistent flex pattern while providing a variety of riding experiences based on foot placement.Practical KicksMinimal nose and tail kicks help navigate city streets and open the door for freestyle trickery."

| "Loaded Longboard - Sama" |
"Things just got a whole lot better!InspirationWe launched the original Dervishin June of 2007. In 2006 we had shifted ourentire line to bamboo, which opened thedoors for us to create a exy drop-through board.All previous drop-throughs wed built as protos hadeventually fractured due to stress on the oak cores.Weve made subtle changes to the Dervish since then (cutoutand keyhole modications and graphics), but its now time tochange it up in a more signicant fashion. Weve learned a lotabout compound contouring in the last few years (as seen on theTan Tien) and felt it was time to step up and rethink the Dervish.Name & GraphicSama is the Su ceremony focusing on active meditation as a tool for the individualsspiritual journey. The origin of this practice is credited to Rumi, apoet and founder of the Mevlevi order of whirling dervishes.ThroughSama, the individual aims to ascend from the connes ofthought to attain heightened maturity, perfection, and closeness toGod. For this boards graphic we continue to explore the whirlingdervish theme, although this time in a more abstract form. The artwork wascreated by Diana Gracida of Nana Studios.WidthFor the width we explored many different width and shape options whileprototyping the Dervish Sama. We came to the realization that there isno right answer and that theres an inherent tension between stabilityand liveliness. Using sophisticated (for us) design software and curvaturecalculations, we extensively tested various different widths and subtle changesto the deck shape. We then collectively decided that this new 9 wide shape (theold Dervish was 8.5 with a different neck curvature) provided a satisfactory balance of comfort, edgecontrol, and responsiveness.ConcaveThe Dervish Sama also received a more pronounced concave pro le, which is further augmentedby the increased deck width. The result is improved edge feel for turn initiation and extra control whilesliding.Nose & Tail KicksTo keep up with the current calibre of freestyle riding, we gave the Dervish the mosttasteful of nosejobs. After testing several new shapes and sizes, we lengthened the tips for additionalleverage, widened the neck to increase durability and ensure a consistent ex pattern through the entiredeck, and added subtle kicks to increase pop and to lock your feet in. The kicks are reinforced with an extralayer of breglass for added stiffness and durability.grip tapeA six-piece symmetrical grip tape pattern was designed with performance and elegance in mind.The two sections at the kicks use an aggressive, rougher-grit grip to provide enhanced control and securityfor manuals and freestyle tricks. The four middle sections use a milder, ner-grit grip (comparable to streetskate grip) to facilitate dancing and footwork manoeuvres. The segmented design yields functional coveragewithout interfering with the boards ex pattern.CamberThe Dervish Samas versatility lends it to many disciplines, but at its heart lies a deeply rootedpassion for carving.

The ex pattern remains very consistent throughout the entire length of the deck and is also much more damp, tight, and controllable. The Dervish Sama gave us an opportunity to re-examine our current ex options. We found that even on the softest ex Dervish ( ex 2), it was difcult for riders weighing less than 140 lbs to generate enough force to fully engage the decks ex during normal riding. The introduction of a third, even softer ex allows lighter riders to more easily play with the cambered standing platform as they pump and carve, achieving a much more lively and comfortable riding experience. A softer ex rating will give you more control and tighter turns at slower speeds and make it easier to slide, but tends to lose stability at higher speeds. A stiffer ex provides more energy potential, is more stable at higher speeds, and holds up better to hard landings, but will not be as forgiving and lively when cruising.ConstructionA vertically laminated bamboo core is sandwiched between layers of triaxial breglass anda bamboo bottom veneer. The deck is pressed with concave and cambered curvatures to create a lively,responsive ride with high energy return. Localized breglass reinforcement at the nose and tail kicks(spanning neck to tip) ensures strength under hard riding.Design Process & OverviewOur design team faced a unique challenge: the Dervish is a board that we continue to enjoy riding and encourage others to share in this experience, so how do we enhance thefeatures of the original board and at the same time increase its versatility? After brainstorming ex patterns, durability, construction and most importantly performance, we arrived at a multifaceted goal: to enhance edge control, lively response and carving; to increase trick potential (with the added benet of durability), to increase concave with subtle adjustments to the camber, and to make the board more accessible by expanding our ex ranges. The Dervish Sama, through intensive back-and-forth within digital environmentsand physical prototyping, serves up a platter of carving and freeride goodness. Were stoked on the continuing renement of our design processes and how what weve learned from the development of the Dervish Sama in particular (regarding methods of communication, prototyping, and testing procedures) will impact our ability to continue exploring the boundaries of skateboard design. More importantly, were stoked on this board and excited to share it with all those who are gonna enjoy it.Set UpsWe recommend 180mm or 10 trucks (Paris, Bear, Gullwing Charger, Navigator, etc.) for the Dervish Sama. This board is designed to accommodate 75mm wheels without wheelbite. A wider race style wheel is ideal for maintaining roll speed and traction through hard carves, while a 70-75mm freeride wheel will provide a well rounded balance of grip and drift for a more slide-friendly riding style. Riders leaning towards freestyle and aggressive freeriding may prefer a lighter and/or smaller wheel in the 70mm+ range.Environment SuitabilitySteepsHillsParkingRound TownBanks & Big BowlsFlex OptionsFlex 3: 75 - 150 lbs (35 to 68 Kgs)Flex 2: 100 - 185 lbs (45 to 84 Kgs)Flex 1: 170 - 250 lbs (75 to 114 Kgs)Set-up OptionsTo complement your riding style Loaded is available in a number of set up options for the ultimate customised ride as well as decks which are graded for rider weight and performance.Premium 1 Set Up:Gullwing Charger Trucks (180mm), Retro 75mm BigZigs** and Jehu Abec 5Premium 2 Set Up:Randal R-2 Trucks (180mm), Retro 75mm BigZigs** and Jehu Abec 5Premium 3 Set Up:Paris 180s Raw, Abec11 Gumballs 76/78a and Jehu Abec 5Premium 4 Set Up:Paris 180s Raw, Urban Blue 70/78a Whites and Code Abec 7Premium 5 Set up:Randal R-2 Trucks (180mm), Orangatang 4President or Stimulus and Jehu Abec 5Premium 6 Set Up:Randal R-2 Trucks (180mm), Orangatang InHeat or Durian and Jehu Abec 5Premium 7 Set Up:Gullwing Charger Trucks (180mm), Orangatang 4President or Stimulus & Jehu Abec 5Premium 8 Set Up:Gullwing Charger Trucks (180mm), Orangatang InHeat or Durian and Jehu Abec 5Premium 9 Set Up:Bear Grizzly 852s, Orangatang InHeat or Durian and Jehu Abec 5 (w/o Die Cut Pads)Premium 10 Set Up:Paris 180s Black (180mm), Orangatang InHeat or Durian and Jehu Abec 5Please note:Orangatangs are available in Orange 80a, Purple 83a or Yellow 86a.ZigZags are currently available in Red (78a), Lime (80a), Lemon (83a) or Orange (86a)If wheel options are available,please email us after ordering with your wheel choice and order number."

"Things just got a whole lot better!InspirationWe launched the original Dervishin June of 2007. In 2006 we had shifted ourentire line to bamboo, which opened thedoors for us to create a exy drop-through board.All previous drop-throughs wed built as protos hadeventually fractured due to stress on the oak cores.Weve made subtle changes to the Dervish since then (cutoutand keyhole modications and graphics), but its now time tochange it up in a more signicant fashion. Weve learned a lotabout compound contouring in the last few years (as seen on theTan Tien) and felt it was time to step up and rethink the Dervish.Name & GraphicSama is the Su ceremony focusing on active meditation as a tool for the individualsspiritual journey. The origin of this practice is credited to Rumi, apoet and founder of the Mevlevi order of whirling dervishes.ThroughSama, the individual aims to ascend from the connes ofthought to attain heightened maturity, perfection, and closeness toGod. For this boards graphic we continue to explore the whirlingdervish theme, although this time in a more abstract form. The artwork wascreated by Diana Gracida of Nana Studios.WidthFor the width we explored many different width and shape options whileprototyping the Dervish Sama. We came to the realization that there isno right answer and that theres an inherent tension between stabilityand liveliness. Using sophisticated (for us) design software and curvaturecalculations, we extensively tested various different widths and subtle changesto the deck shape. We then collectively decided that this new 9 wide shape (theold Dervish was 8.5 with a different neck curvature) provided a satisfactory balance of comfort, edgecontrol, and responsiveness.ConcaveThe Dervish Sama also received a more pronounced concave pro le, which is further augmentedby the increased deck width. The result is improved edge feel for turn initiation and extra control whilesliding.Nose & Tail KicksTo keep up with the current calibre of freestyle riding, we gave the Dervish the mosttasteful of nosejobs. After testing several new shapes and sizes, we lengthened the tips for additionalleverage, widened the neck to increase durability and ensure a consistent ex pattern through the entiredeck, and added subtle kicks to increase pop and to lock your feet in. The kicks are reinforced with an extralayer of breglass for added stiffness and durability.grip tapeA six-piece symmetrical grip tape pattern was designed with performance and elegance in mind.The two sections at the kicks use an aggressive, rougher-grit grip to provide enhanced control and securityfor manuals and freestyle tricks. The four middle sections use a milder, ner-grit grip (comparable to streetskate grip) to facilitate dancing and footwork manoeuvres. The segmented design yields functional coveragewithout interfering with the boards ex pattern.CamberThe Dervish Samas versatility lends it to many disciplines, but at its heart lies a deeply rootedpassion for carving. The cambered platform and weight-tailored ex pattern work together synergistically toprovide a lively, owing ride.
