Our 7 ply option will be ideal for middleweight riders, around 160 to 210 lbs. This deck is effective on both mounting positions for LDP longboard riders in the lower ranges of this weight range. Up to around 200 pounds and beyond, riders should get this flex only with the zero degree rear mounting option. Keep in mind that riding style has a big component of flex. Riders that throw their body super hard into the board will flex the deck more. Less aggressive pumpers will likely be able to ride both mounting areas even if they’re above that 190-200 pound mark.
Our 8 ply XL is not only thicker and stiffer, but it is also a touch wider than the 6 and 7 ply options. Our max width on the XL is 9.5”, which is 0.3” wider than the more slender options. We are thinking about our XL riders, and often times, these riders have larger feet.
For setup we recommend pairing your board with either Caliber 3 9" Raked Trucks in a split 50/44 setup on either 90mm Boa Hatchlings or 86mm McFly wheels by 88 Wheel Co. Both setups will give you an insanely stable and fun to push and get around town board. These big wheels will soak up the pavement and give you a new found confidence. Your beer runs just got more hectic. For a more spirited freeride setup we recommend pairing the new Caliber 3 125mm Precision trucks with our 65 or 70mm Bangers for that low, fast and fun setup
