loaded longboards review
Loaded longboards have to be some of the best longboards out there. they are highly flexible and super comfortable, the bamboo makes for a more secure and sturdy board. Meaning if you buy one of these then you’ll be set for a long while (a long long long long while). These boards are also frickin speed demons man, they rush so fast it makes your face feel like it’ll peel off at any second, kinda like a giant potato peeler is grinding at your face.
But the best Loaded longboard would have to be the Dervish fo sho. its got a great surface for zooming across anything you want to conquer and not to mention that these boards have amazing handling in case you almost get hit by a car you could maybe i dont know.. mybe move the heck out of they way really fast. All in all these are fantastic boards so you should totally get one now.
The Arbor roller series
The arbor roller series longboards is great for cruising around town. The arbor roller series as you might have guessed is great for just rolling…well you guessed wrong The rollers can FLY down streets…no wings. The great thing about these arbor longboards is that you never have to worry about rocks…because secretly the rollers have taken wrestling classes, they smash rocks.
my favorite board from this series is the Oso because it reminds me a lot of my powell steve steadham, Fast, smooth, and sexy. The great thing about the oso is takes no crud from nobody…smashes those nasty rocks…and rolls over those filthy cracks. remember. no smokin’ and no flash photography. I recommend the roller series to anyone who needs a quick way to get to work, school, hang out etc.
The Arbor mini series
The Arbor longboards as a great selection of carving boards and a couple of good speed boards. In all honesty I would have to say that these are the best carving boards made for big vert. If you’re looking to ride quickly up a 20 foot wall then this would definitely be the board you would want to get (haha like anyone has the guts to do that anyway). The mini series reminds me of cruising around on an old school powell peralta skatin up pools and ridin around town showin’ off your skills.
Anyways, if your looking for an amazing board then i would totally go for the pocket rocket. It’s really compact but at the same time has great room for your feet and amazing handling when it comes to carving up a fat ramp or even just an emptied pool. I have three words for you to wrap your head around, REALLY GOOD BOARD. So go ahead and buy an Arbor mini… now…. seriously.. do it now… i’m not joking… DO IT!
