LOADED VANGUARD 42'' LONGBOARD DECK

The board that started it all. Symmetrical shape and stance for a balanced center of gravity, which increases the board's handling in turns and improves power generation and control. The board's slimmed-down contour at its center allows for reduced torsional stiffness between the feet to better exploit torsional energy and allow for easy variation in turn radius (like snowboarding).

The Vanguard was designed with a target speed of 0-40km/h. You can skate faster with technique and experience, but it was not the intent of its design due to its flex characteristics.
