On the other hand, the creation of a board that was stiffer and more aggressive to instil confidence for a wider variety of riding styles was also wanted.

Pantheon developed the crescent drop, which instead of being a straight line across the board is bordering on a semi-circle. In the centre of the board the drop is closer to your foot, and it recedes back towards the shoulders of the deck. This shape makes it stiffer and stronger, as well as offering your foot a more precise marker for exactly where it is on the board. All regular advantages of drop-down decks still apply - a lower centre of gravity for stability, easier pushing and braking and super forgiving initiation of slides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConcave-wise, it's a gentle radial concave. It's not trying to be something it isn't - for a board designed for distance you don't want too many features under foot. However when paired with the \"moustache rocker\" (rocker at the front and back of the board, and a light camber in the centre) you'll really feel locked in for pushing regular and mongo as well as always being right in the pocket for deep carves and slides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e A step up from your regular maple board, the Trip features 6 plies of maple sandwiched between fibreglass, with thin veneer topsheets. This one has applewood on the bottom which looks as juicy as it sounds. It's a lightweight board that's surprisingly stiff, a pushing machine that will eat up all the miles you can throw at it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eIf you skate one of these from John O'Groats to Land's End (or vice versa, with the favourable prevailing winds) in less than 3 weeks, please let us know and Matt will buy you a beer.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pantheon","offers":[{"title":"Light","offer_id":57129787916670,"sku":"DK_PAN_TRIP_WHALE_LIGHT","price":215.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Heavy","offer_id":57129787949438,"sku":"DK_PAN_TRIP_WHALE_HEAVY","price":215.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1125\/9420\/files\/Pantheon-Trip-Whale-deck-14_ebd0120d-58e6-49ea-aae7-5984928e1de6.jpg?v=1774274233"},{"product_id":"pantheon-banantheon-xl-skateboard-deck","title":"Pantheon Banantheon XL Skateboard Deck","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/vandemlongboardshop.co.uk\/collections\/pantheon\" title=\"Pantheon Longboards UK\"\u003ePantheon Longboards\u003c\/a\u003e with something a little different.
