Excellent shop with a good variety and an easy to navigate website. The 65mm Orang Fat Free wheels and bushings I ordered for my surfskate arrived in less than two days in good packaging.
Lovely vibe from the guys running the show too!

Santa Cruz Kendall Snake Reissue Skateboard
A new Santa Cruz Reissue for November 2022 - the Kendall Snake. This version sits over a red woodstain that really brings out some of Jim Phillips' finest work and most classic Santa Cruz graphics.
This deck features the lovely Cruz Missile II concave (click through to read more about it) which we absolutely love. Fully engineered for comfort and control be it cruising through the neighbourhood, throwing out powerslides or coming in off the coping in your local park.
9.975", it's basically a 10", with most of that sitting up front as you'd expect. As with many of these classic shapes, the taper gives them a directional feeling with the carve being provided by the extra leverage the width gives under your front foot. It's what makes them feel so damn good to ride!
Designed originally for shredding of the highest order and works great for it. With these old school setups we build up completes with undercarriages designed to fit these wide boards, with hard wheels for the bowl afficionados out there, and soft wheels for those wanting to cruise this thing from A to B with style and ease.
This is one of my favourites of the Santa Cruz autumn collection and in the unlikely possibility that they aren't snapped up fast, is probably going to end up under my feet...
Three completes available, exclusive to Vandem. Built up with some of our favourite components to provide the best experience for your riding style and budget. If you're going to the skatepark, grab the Park setup. The Pro and Elite have soft wheels on and make awesome cruisers.
Is the Elite setup worth the extra £30?
For only an extra £30, you can upgrade the "Pro" setup to the "Elite" Level build.
The Elite setup is a pretty heavy wheel and bearing upgrade over the Pro.
You get Sabre Built-In Labyrinth Bearings - fully shielded, easy to clean, with built in bearing spacers. They roll faster and last longer than the Pro level metal shielded ABEC5 bearings.
The Elite complete also includes Cult Chronicle 65mm Longboard Wheels White (Stoneground), poured from a higher grade urethane. Premium urethane rolls fater, lasts longer, and generally injects a whole new level of life into the board - once you've skated decent wheels, you won't want anything else!
Less obvious is the wheel upgrade. Your extra £30 gets you a set of Cult Chronicle over the Pro build's Cult Nova. Apart from the obvious size difference, the Cult Chronicle are poured from a higher grade of urethane - an invisible difference that you will immediately notice as soon as you push the board off.
Just like the bearings, the wheel upgrade makes your board roll faster and last longer - what's not to like??
If you look at the SRP difference of these components and add them together you'll see that the upgrade from Pro to Elite represents serious value - trust us, it's well worth it.
Coupled with this, we've noticed that almost everyone who makes it into our shop ends up with an Elite setup - the value is clear once you have the board in your hands!
Santa Cruz Kendall Snake Reissue Skateboard: Park Complete Spec
Looking to ride in the skatepark, bowl or vert ramp? This is the setup for you. With hard wheels you wouldn't necessarily want to take it across town, but on smooth concrete or wood you wouldn't want anything else. Smooth rolling and fast, this complete will be super comfy in transitions and on the coping. Super fun.- Wheels: Cult Zero 60mm Skateboard Wheels White 101a
- Trucks: Sabre Skateboard Truck 170mm
- Bearings: Sabre Built-In Labyrinth Bearings
Santa Cruz Kendall Snake Reissue Skateboard: Elite Complete Spec
This is a premium cruising setup that'll last years to come. 65mm Chronicles roll smoothly over cracks and pebbles whilst being small enough to accelerate fast and get off the ground. They slide great, too.- Wheels: Cult Chronicle 65mm Longboard Wheels White (Stoneground)
- Trucks: Sabre Skateboard Truck 170mm
- Bearings: Sabre Built-In Labyrinth Bearings
Santa Cruz Kendall Snake Reissue Skateboard: Pro Complete Spec
Slightly smaller wheels will be easier to take to the air and roll best when the path is smooth and flowing in front of you. This setup is the best value you'll find anywhere for such a badass cruiser!- Wheels: Cult Nova 60mm Longboard Wheels White

Customise your ride!
We can change the truck bushings on this board to suit your weight and riding style!
This way your board will come set up perfectly for you, straight out of the box.
Just refer to the table below and make your choice as you add to cart!
| Rider weight | Bushing Hardness |
| 10 - 50kgs | Extra Soft |
| 50 - 72kgs | Softer |
| 72 - 90kgs | Stock Setup |
| 90 - 104kgs | Harder |
| 104 - 120kgs | Extra Hard |
Some other things to consider...
- If in doubt - go softer! Turnier boards are easier to balance on, and a lot more fun to skate.
- If you are "between hardnesses," we would recommend the softer option. So for example, for a 73kg rider, "Soft" rather than "Stock Setup" might be a better choice. Get in touch if you're not sure!
- if you want a very turny board - say for a dancing longboard - then it's worth going one stop softer than you otherwise would do. Watch out for wheelbite though!
- Likewise, if you want a board for downhill speed, then go up a step harder than the weight table suggests.
- You do have a bit of adjustment in the truck's kingpin nut, but we would suggest that if you have more than two threads showing then it's time to go to a harder bushing.
