Is it a skateboard? Is it an InterCity-Express High-Speed Train? No, It's a Loaded Fathom!
The latest Loaded Longboards innovation may look different to what you know as a longboard but as always, you can guarantee that this thing has been thought through from every angle and delivers a punch that no other board can offer:
100mm+ wheels, low ride height and no wheelbite.
This is largely thanks to the G-Bomb designed "Zee Bracket" which essentially creates a drop-through, drop-down longboard from a topmount. It lowers the ride height by around 4cm and extends out far enough forward to get massive wheels on there with no danger of them touching your deck.
Add to the swish brackets a classic Loaded masterpiece - a wide (9.25") platform, slight camber and lifted corners - and you've got a board that performs like no other.
It's super comfortable - the width gives plenty of room for your feet and the camber creates a subtle flex that dampens any road noise and allows you to concentrate on what's important: the road ahead.
The lifted corners help avoid wheelbite and act as a strong concave to lock your feet in position and let them know when they're at the edge of the board. Don't put them further out - footbite is a real thing!
Designed for absolute speed through the city - low ride height plus massive wheels means more speed per push and longer rolling between pushes. Stones and cracks are a worry of the past.
Throw on some narrow RKPs like the Paris Trucks on here and not only does the Loaded Fathom fly along the pavement, it's also super responsive and can handle the tight corners that pavements so often throw at you.
For those of you with access to a 3D printer, there's also a file to print out your own tail nub here! It'll allow you to pop the board up into your hands with ease.
The graphic on this one is designed by Nanastudio, inspired by ancient Polynesian exploration, intended to evoke the spirit of adventure. If you're aware of how they navigated across open ocean... we cannot condone that whilst riding this board.
A distance and commuting machine. Your commute needing a lot of ollies is the only reason not to get it that I can... Fathom.
