Downhill - A longboard designated for downhill is crafted specifically for high speeds. Get your full face helmet and head to the hills.
Mounting Style
Top Mount - The classic skate mount. Trucks are mounted from the top to sit flush with the bottom of the board for that proven ride and feel.
Deck Profile
Drop Down - Drop Down decks are constructed to dip down below where the trucks are mounted which means you're closer to the road for a really stable skateboard.
Deck Shape
Symmetrical - If you ever think you want to ride your board backwards (freeride/freestyle) then a symmetrical longboard shape will help you with the learning curve. Other than that, it's all preference.
Deck Features
Cutouts - Cutouts around the wheels provide the extra space required to prevent wheelbite.
Concave
Deep Concave - Deep concave is like a bucket-seat for your feet. It offers supreme leverage for slides and provides a platform in the middle for downhill riding when you want your speed tuck to be pristine for the whole heat.
Deck Thickness
10-Ply - 10 veneer plies pressed together to give you a very stiff, stable ride. Traditionally, boards are made with 7 plies, so this is 3 plies thicker which is great for bigger riders who need the extra support underfoot.
Construction
Canadian Maple - Provides a solid ride without a ton of weight. With low flexibility, this deck is ideal for high-speeds and is very durable.
Trucks
Gen 6 Bear Trucks - Redesigned from the ground up and incorporating technology perfected in Bear's high end DH and Freeride trucks, Gen 6 Grizzlies are some of the best performing cast trucks on the market today. Game changing strength and highly refined steering geometry are just the tip of the iceberg.
Bearings
ABEC 7 Bearings - ABEC 7 bearings are highly precise and turn faster for longer. A precise bearing means that it has a higher tolerance to heat caused by friction.
Eco Features
One Board One Tree - By partnering with TreeCanada; for every skateboard sold Landyachtz will plant a tree. One tree produces at least 60 boards. So one tree will turn into at least 60 new trees planted.
