Loaded Icarus 38.4" (97.5cm) Longboard Deck

Loaded pioneered the flexible dropthru board with the Dervish in 2007 and the Tan Tien in 2012. They’ve returned to their carving roots using many of the things learned over the past few years from their freeride boards, downhill boards and snowboard. Combining wheel flares, cork, a balanced flex pattern and novel manufacturing methods, the Loaded Icarus 38.4'' Longboard Deck is a milestone in Loaded's exploration of the soulful carving experience. This deck features a powerful flex - vertically laminated bamboo and fiberglass construction pair with a cambered profile and a variable concave for a lively and engaging ride. The cork bottom helps dampening out vibrations without compromising the liveliness. The drop-through truck mounting positions the deck lower to the ground for easier, more efficient pushing and enhanced stability. A light weight and the compact size make the Icarus intuitive and commuter-friendly. The right curves in the right places enhance rider ergonomics while contributing to a responsive and high-performance ride. Wheelwell flares accommodate big wheels and improve turning leverage and control. The variable concave yields a consistent flex pattern while providing a variety of riding experiences based on foot placement. Minimal nose and tail kicks help navigate city streets and open the door for freestyle trickery.
