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 comfort-able just pushing around town. With a variable wheelbase from 27 to 24 inches this board can be a stable downhill monster or a super-technical freeride machine. It’s up to you!

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 pro-viding a slight wedge to make it nimble and re-sponsive. 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!

98,4 cm × 24,5 cm / 38.8” × 9.6”adjustable 67,1 cm - 70,9 cm / 26.4” - 27.6”Deep concave, wheelwells, gaspedals, coarse grip tape. Made of 9-ply Canadian hardmaple.

The Barely Legal is a board for all bombers out there. It’s a fast and stable board with enough wheelwells to ride huge grippy wheels to stick those hard curves. It fits perfectly for “the new riding style” as it features wheelbase options at minimum 67,1 cm and being a top mount makes it really responsive.It’s huge gaspedals makes it easy for you to “kick it in the back” and really dig into slides without losing a single bit of concave because they are applied on the outside. It also features a cute little tail so you can use it as your all around board.

The DFA got a complete make-over this year. The wheel base is tighter with a narrower body and con-cave to make it more nimble and responsive. With a shorter weelbase we could add a kicktail. The 1.2” rocker and deep tub concave keeps you on-board 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 con-cave so that no precious concave is lost.

The Fibrefresh is a modern take on a classic cruiser. Designed to handle most of everyone’s riding as-pects, 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!
