Metaphorically and physically expanding on the Fathom and the Zee Bracket system, the Loaded Tangent is here to welcome riders of all heights and sizes to the most comfortable ride of their lives. With the added benefit of basalt construction, the Tangent is a durable, stable, and relatively lightweight board meant to be ridden, and talked about long-windedly, for days and days. With it’s symmetrical shape, smooth chatter-free ride feel, and welcoming platform; the Loaded Tangent is here to commute, traverse, and connect the dots (or carry on the conversation, wherever it may go).
This board is for you if:
- You want a stable, comfortable longboard as a utilitarian commuting board with a roomier platform.
- You like the Fathom concept but want a longer platform and an even lower ride height for enhanced stability and effortless pushing and footbraking.
- You appreciate having huge wheels that coast forever and plow over bumps and cracks, but also want an agile and responsive, quick turning board
