Quick Overview

Slide Setup:

* Paris 180mm black trucks
* Orangatang 70mm Stimulus 86a
* Jehu Abec 5

FLEX 2 40 - 86 Kg’s (90-190+ lbs) is what Adam S. (150 lbs) and Adam C. (160 lbs) ride. The Adam’s prefer a board with a bit of flex to it (feels a lot better for freestyle). You can still take the flex 2 plenty fast and do slides comfortably, thanks to the rocker and concave.

Product Description

Purpose: a more compact dancing/freestyle board that you can basically do everything on. Plenty of room, smaller, lighter, and easier to throw around. Not overly huge, can bust out slides. Can you downhill on this board? Probably, but it is not a DH board.

Rocker: The rocker just sinks you into the board and gives you that extra cushy, locked in feel. Feels great for dancing, makes sliding a lot easier and comfortable, and puts the board lower to the ground, making pushing a tad bit easier.

Concave: A mellow concave to give you more confidence when sliding. The concave also helps lock your feet in when landing big spins and such. It does not feel uncomfortable for footwork moves.

Nose and Tail Kicks: More nose and tail curvatures allow easier catching of the nose and tail. You can ollie the Bhangra. Both the nose and tail will lock your feet in nicely for manuals, but the different lengths result in distinct feelings of balance and pop. The tail is really good for catching shuvits-to-manuals, while the nose feels better for hang ten manuals.

Construction : The board is constructed from bamboo, cork and epoxy bio-resin.

Wheel Wells: We designed functional wheel wells to accommodate several brands of 180mm trucks and 70mm wheels without risers. They will prevent wheelbite in most circumstances; however, you may encounter bite if you run super loose trucks with soft bushings.

Setup Recommendations

Trucks: We recommend 180mm reverse-kingpin trucks: Paris, Randal, Bears, etc.

Wheels: This board is intended to ride with 70mm or smaller wheels. 70mm is such a nice, lightweight size to throw around, do tricks on, and slide.

Adam Stokowski, Dane Webber and Adam Colton like this board set up with 86a Stimulus wheel for sliding and shuvit spin moves. The 86a is a good all round wheel for their style and provides extra leeway: when landing a shuvit wrong, the wheels will slide the extra bit around instead of gripping and bucking you off. A softer wheel will be more comfortable for cruising long distances, cross-stepping, manuals and such.

Dimensions:

Length: 48.5 inch
Width: 9.5 inch
Wheelbase: 32.75 inch (inner hole)
