Sector 9 is more than just a longboard company!
Sector 9 Skateboards
Sector 9 is not just a longboarding company, they’re a skateboard company! The mini series of sector 9 is a perfect example of them being more than just a longboard company. A great board from the sector 9 mini series is the Sector 9 Kiwi Mini Longboard. It comes with a standard sized skateboard truck in the gullwing mission. By standard it just means it is the same design as any other skateboard truck such as independent or venture. As to wear more common longboard style trucks use a reverse kingpin style truck. This sector 9 longboard is best paired with a smaller sized wheel from 61mm-65mm in size.
The Sector 9 shorties are gerat for tricks, travel, filming, the car, whatever. They don’t need to be long to cruise and hide easily in the bushes. The Kiwi is Great for airport travel due to its uniquely small size. It is also very quick and rides very smooth. You can do all the same tricks on this board that you can on a standard skateboard. The mini’s are also great at the skateparks!
