Longboard decks
Like their name implies, longboard decks are much longer than a normal skateboard. Skaters typically prefer the speed and fluidity that a longer deck allows, but the size also makes it difficult to perform street tricks like ollies or kick flips.
What are the popular companies that produce longboard decks?
• Sector Nine
• Never Summer
• Barefoot
• LandyachtzLongboard decks are bent differently depending on the style of riding. Bent-up shaped boards (when looked at from the side) have “camber” while bent-down decks have “rocker”. Riders who prefer camber like their boards bouncier and responsive, but racers generally like boards with rocker because they feel cradled while maneuvering through turns at high speeds.
