Sector 9 costa mini longboard

The Sector 9 costa mini longboard skateboard is the perfect little ride for carving, cruising and ramp riding. The costa mini is great because of it’s short wheelbase for weaving through traffic like it’s nobodies business. One of the best things about the costa mini is it’s size, it’s easy to carry, can be store in lockets, under desks, in cabinets, duffel bag, you can bury underground if you want (don’t recommend). I recommend the costa mini to anyone who wants an amazing little cruiser.

The costa mini comes with san clemente trucks and wheels but I highly recommend buying some of our  premium trucks and wheels. for trucks I recommend getting some independents or chargers. For wheels I recommend sector 9’s, abec 11’s or orangutangs or any wheel in a 60mm or higher for that matter. The costa also comes with abec 5 bearings but I highly recommend getting some reds, they’re only 10$ more and they’re worth every cent.

The landyachtz evo longboard is perfect for tearing up hills, thrashing the park, or even just taking a a smooth cruise across town. Another great thing about the Evo is that it’s so versatile you can slap some sidewinders and make it a carver/cruiser or even put some bombers/chargers on for bombing hills, slalom, and racing. I recommend the Evo to anyone looking for a board that can do it all and then some.

The landyachtz evo is perfect with san clemente trucks and wheels however this board will only be a mere glimpse of what it could be without the right equipment. For wheels I definitely recommend sector 9’s or abec 11’s (if you have the money of course) or even orangatangs. For trucks I suggest getting  gullwing chargers, or bombers because this is mainly a downhill board however if you want a good cruiser/carver, just slap some sidewinders on there. The evo also comes with abec 5 bearings that would be much better replaced with some bones reds or if you have the money some sector 9 or bones swiss ceramics.

Landyachtz spud longboard review

The landyachtz spud longboard is almost an exact replica of the switch. The Spud has a very long wheelbase and very low center of gravity making for high speed, and stability. The spuds flush mount trucks are what give it’s low center of gravity, added stability, and snazziness (in my opinion). The spud is also cut in such a way that it’s gives a lower center of gravity as well due to it pushing the trucks further out and keeping the board lower to the ground.

The landyachtz spud is perfect with san clemente trucks and wheels however this board can’t reach it’s full potential without getting some premium equipment. For wheels I definitely recommend sector 9’s or abec 11’s (if you have the money of course) or even abec 11’s. For trucks I suggest getting  gullwing chargers, or bombers really any truck without the quadruple bushing (sidewinders). The spud also comes with abec 5 bearings however it’s much better replaced with some bones reds or if you have the money some sector 9 or bones swiss ceramics.

Landyachtz battle ax longboard review

The landyachtz battle ax longboard is perfect for downhill it pretty much fill out any role except for sliding. A cool thing about the battle ax is that it’s cut so there’s virtually no wheelbite. The battle ax also has a pretty average flex and concave making it great for beginners or people who like a generic feeling concave. I recommend the battle ax to any beginners or intermediates, however if you’re extremely good I’m sure there are other decks that can smoke this especially with the right setup.

Landyachtz switch longboard

The landyachtz switch longboard is the ultimate board for downhill and cruising. The Landyachtz switch has a special design that with the flush mount trucks gives it such a low center of gravity you will be glued to the ground and your board will have it’s own exhaust. The landyachts switch also has the long wheelbase any board can offer so if you like stability at high speeds, and the ability to accelerate to high speeds faster than this by all means should be your next purchase.

Landyachtz Evo Longboard

Hey everyone, I’m finally back from hitting the books and apparently we have some new longboards in.  The Ladyachtz longboards evo longboard is an all out racing board, rumor has it that it’s won more racing competitions in the last 3 years than any other board, and has been the choice for 3 world championships. The great thing about the Evo longboard is the 2″ dropped platform that keeps you low to ground for a lower center of gravity, which will send you zipping down hills. Now, although the Evo was built with racing in mind, these boards have become a staple in today’s cruising, with its stability and speed. I recommend the Ladyachtz Evo to anyone looking for a super speedy, and extremely stable board.

Now, the Ladyachtz doesn’t get it’s speed and stability from just the deck itself, it’s some quality accessories to go with it. If you have racing in mind I definitely recommend going for some gullwing bombers or chargers, however if you want to just cruise around I suggest getting some gullwing sidewinders instead. As for wheels, sector 9 puts out a really good wheel for the price, however if you really want to tear through town or down hills I recommend getting orangatang wheels . The Ladyachtz also can’t zip through town without a good set of bearings. For bearings I recommend getting either reds, rush’s, or greaseballs, but if you want a better quality for a little more money I suggest bones swiss or sector 9 ceramics.

The Landyachtz longboards DH longboard is all you’ll ever need as far as downhill racing goes. This board is perfect for downhill because of it;s insane stability, Landyachtz made this board with a super low center of gravity and steep concave  which is what really makes this board what is. This board can also be set up for cruising, or carving, however you set it up though, instability will be old news. I recomend the DH race to anyone looking for a good racing board.

The Landyachtz DH comes with san clemente trucks and wheels as well as some abec 5 bearings. For trucks, if you’re going to do downhill I recommend bombers or chargers, but if you plan on carving and cruising, go for the gullwing sidewinders. For wheels I recommend getting orangatangs, gumballs, sector 9’s, arbors, any wheel will do just fine but the best wheels out right now are the orangutangs and abec 11 gumballs. As far as bearings go, Reds are still the best for the price, but if you want a truly superior bearing get some sector 9 ceramics.

Landyachtz Evo Longboard

So spring is here and yes that means it’s time for something new, and something fresh! Landyachtz has done a huge makeover to their longboard line and the evo has been of the the pupils getting the new duds. The shape itself hasn’t changed at all however the paint and graphic  are new and fresh! The new graphic sports an ever popular skull which always seems to be popular among the skate crowd. It is splashed on top of an all black back ground which really sets it off and pairs up nicely with all black trucks and some cool blue wheels to make the graphic pop a little.

The landyachtz evo longboard recommended set up:

Trucks: Bear Grizzly 852’s in all black - (a side note/tip, I like to put either 1/4″ or wedge riser pad on the back truck only to give it a more aggressive downhill angle and ride…ssshhhh, don’t tell the others!)

Wheels: Landyachtz Hawgs Monster 76mm Blue 78a

Bearings: Bones Original Swiss
