This is a custom shaped deck, designed with freestyle riding in mind. The deck features a dropped platform with concave, & creates comfortable foot grips near the trucks. The concave helps you to power through turns and slides. The trucks are actually placed higher than the standing platform which allows for greater stability at high speeds.
The purpose of a drop down longboard is to get the rider closer to the pavement. Witch will give the rider a lower center of gravity, the longboard becomes much more stable by doing so. This helps smooth out the ride at faster speeds, and helps to eliminate speed wobbles that can happen on top-mount boards.
