Pantheon Pranayama FG Distance Deck - Portal

The myth, the legend: The Pantheon Pranayama.

31.5" of pure efficiency. Perhaps the lowest board available with big wheels, it simply eats up pavement like no other.

With a little extra width than the Pantheon Ember and straighter rails, there's a lot of comfort in the foot platform - beneficial whether you're navigating the dirty city streets, or taking on a whole continent.

The Pranayama is designed around TKP trucks - mounting RKPs will likely end in wheelbite so please do keep this in mind when choosing a setup! The classic choice would be the Pantheon Stylus trucks along with the 92mm Karma wheels - perfectly fitting components that make for a slimline setup, low in ride height and as light as possible.

Your second option is the Paris Street 149mm trucks - which Jeff at Pantheon used on all the Pranayamas before he released his own truck. Using an Indy or a Sabre truck is possible but generally the Pantheon/Paris are recommended as they take taller bushings, giving them slightly more height and lean.

It is possible to fit the massive 102mm Pantheon Hokus under here, but you may have to tighten your trucks to avoid wheelbite.

The Portal graphic differs from the others in that it has two flex options.

Light flex: 5-ply maple core as opposed to the regular 6 - this will be slightly flexier (and lighter) than the regular Pranayama. Great for lighter riders or those looking for a more comfy ride. Tested up to 85kg with success, however if you are going to be picking up speed you may prefer the control of the stiffer deck.

Heavy flex: 6-ply maple core with wet-lay fibreglass on top and bottom, then wrapped in a pre-preg fibreglass shell. This makes it slightly stiffer than the regular Pranayama, and has been tested up to 110kg with success. The race model. Though if you're at the lighter end, and pushing super long distances, the comfort of the light flex over time on rough roads might be better for you.

The Pantheon Pranayama has won marathons, it's crossed countries, and it's offering it's service to help you get to work, get fitter and see your surroundings in a new light. It's easy to push this one further than you ever thought was possible (or reasonable!) on a longboard.
