Landyachtz Switchblade 38" Crown Peak Freeride Longboard Deck

The Switchblade is classic Landyachtz - big, fast, stiff, controllable. It's been honed over the years by skaters to drop the biggest hills out there.

Designed to rally big mountain terrain and conquer World Cup podiums, the Switchblade has proven itself equally adept at getting you to the grocery store and ripping down your local hill safely. The mellow drops, long wheelbase and low ride height combine to offer a drifty, confidence-inspiring feel perfect for riders looking to up their freeride game.

In todays world of tiny topmounts and expensive trucks, the Switchblade admittedly looks pretty old school. Is that a bad thing? Not at all.

Being so close to the ground your weight is going sideways through the wheels when you carve - meaning getting it to slide out is super easy and controllable. It may not win a world cup race in this day and age, but a big dropped board has it's place in any quiver and you'll be grinning as soon as you get going.

This board is super-stiff, giving you loads of response and feedback whilst sliding.

A small micro-drop helps lock your feet in place, and the drop-through truck mounting keeps the ride height super low.

This is exactly the sort of board that Landyachtz made their name with - and no-one does it better. If you want a dropped freeride/downhill board, get a Switchblade.
