The Omen Airship is one of the smaller DH / freeride boards in their line-up. This deck has a lot of concave features that are sure to lock you in such as: wheel flares, rocker, and radial concave. With the small drop and flush mounting it is lower than a topmount as well, which will help with pushing and freeriding with ease. This is a great deck for a rider who wants a shorter deck to have more grip, or quicker steering.
BAMBOO Heavy
The Bamboo heavy is stronger and stiffer than the medium flex. Riders up to about 240 lbs should be able to ride this deck flat with the 92mm Karma wheels and a 50 degree truck up front (rear would be 40 or 43 based on current options). Heavier riders may be able to get away with riding this deck by compensating with larger wheels and some risers to create more space between the ground and the low point on the board. This deck is not as stiff as our 8 ply maple / glass version. Consider it more like a 7 1/2 ply, if you are familiar with our maple versions of this deck. If you’re above 230 lbs, you may start to consider the 8 ply maple version of this deck, as it is a bit stiffer and will still be able to hold your weight without any fear of failure. OR if you just want a stiffer setup, the 8 ply is still available–until it’s not!
