One Board One Tree

To give back to the environment we have decided that for every skateboard we sell, we plant a tree. One tree produces at least 60 boards. So with our program, one tree will turn into at least 60 new trees planted.

100% Canadian Maple

Canadian Maple is a strong and proven material used in the world’s best skateboards. We source only the finest veneers found in Eastern Canada.

Kicktail

Take your skating into the third dimension with a kicktail. We design our kicktails to work perfectly with each deck shape as well as with the truck and wheel setup on each complete.

MEDIUM CAVE

The perfect middle ground, enough concave that you always feel glued to your board, but not too much to hurt your feet during a longer cruise.

ROCKER

Rocker provides a more comfortable foot platform by adjusting the deck angles to a skater’s natural stance. It also adds board control and increases responsiveness under your feet.

SANDED WHEEL WELLS

Wheel wells reduce the risk of wheel-bite by increasing the gap between wheels and deck. Sanded or CNC’d wheel wells both allow for larger wheels or looser trucks, if desired.

Length: 36.9"
Width: 9"
Wheelbase: 24.9"

The Ripper is a scaled down longboard shape that measures 36.9″ long by 9″ wide. A slightly flexy ride and the long wheelbase give it a playful, surfy ride and lots of lean in carves. Mellow concave and a good amount of rocker will have your feet feeling at home on this board from the first ride. We set this board up with Polar Bear 155mm trucks to give it the combination of agility and stability that it needed and finished it off with a set of 63mm 78a EZ Hawgs wheels to keep the board nice and light while still giving a fast, smooth ride.

Flex Rating

So, what’s flex and why is it important to a skateboard? In skate-nerd terms, flex is the amount of displacement a deck sees when a specific amount of force is applied to it. Check out our formula to the left! There are a few factors that affect flex, like deck thickness, wheelbase, and the amount of force on a deck. We built a machine and put our entire lineup to the test by applying the exact same amount of force to all our boards and measured the displacement we saw in each. This gives a totally scientific and accurate flex range across our entire line! It’s important to understand flex when choosing a board. Here are some basics: Downhill/freeride skateboards will have less flex because you need a stiff platform to stand on when you’re bombing or gripping a corner at speed. Carving skateboards will have more flex, giving you the ability to sink into your turns and pump or carve with ease. Most cruisers, dance and ATV boards will have less flex for control when doing tricks but just enough to be forgiving when pushing around town. We’ve engineered our boards with the best flex for each style of riding but remember, flex is subjective so get out a see what you like the most!

First Board, And It's Great!

I used to skate a long time ago, when I was maybe 12. I never had any at all decent quality boards. I decided, in order to get out a bit more while getting a little work in, to give it a go again. This being my first board in years I don't have anything to compare it to, but after the last few months of trying it out, learning to fall all over again, and taking it across my town, I can say confidently this is far better than anything I used to skate, and surprisingly fun.

If I could I probably would've got a board a bit smaller, but other than that it's perfect in all aspects.

I like her.

Riding for the first time in my sister’s Tallahassee neighborhood.

I’ve been accustomed to the Drop Hammer for a long time . More recently, I’ve been riding a pintail with Original surf skate trucks. I like riding a top mount now..

I’ve had my eye on the Ripper for awhile Momma Bear let me buy it for Christmas.

I love the ride. She is fast and stable. I have performed my best glove slides with her.

I have been naturally pushing switch more. The deck’s width and shape helps me balance goofy.

Riding smaller trucks than the DH is a noticeable change . For this reason, I will investigate the even smaller trucks with the Dipper.

I’ve been using LY’s Bling slide gloves. They are comfortable and well designed.

awesome board!

I set these up with a wedged RKP in the front and a dewedged RKP in the back.

It is a carving, cruising, and pumping machine! Along with some EZ Hawgs I also have a fun board to do some light freeriding!

I definitely recommend this for your quiver!
