And how it changes your ride
Eggboards are a unique hybrid between longboards and mini cruisers. They are shorter than pennyboards but twice as wide to ensure stability and maneuverability. The skateboard deck is made of strong and sustainable bamboo wood. The 69MM wheels will save your life when longboarding on sidewalks or bumpy streets. If you tried other cruisers before, chances are you never tried anything like this. Take a test ride and feel the difference.
Bamboo deck 19''x9'' compact and wide: more room for your feet. 12'' wheelbase for maneuverability.
The unique oval shape prevents wheel-bites on turns, even with large longboard wheels. No risers needed so your center of gravity is lower for more stability and less effort when pushing with your foot.
Trucks 7'' wide are usually mounted on longboards with decks from 38'' to 49'' long. They give longboards that stable and sturdy ride feeling, different than regular skateboards and cruisers.
Combining 7 inches trucks with the Eggboard deck (19 inches long) results in extreme maneuverability, turning sharply to dodge any obstacle on your way.
Aluminum is also one of the lightest metal, to limit the weight of your Eggboard to under 6.5 lb.
Extra large wheels : 69mm diameter, 57mm contact patch and soft density (76A) for smooth rides.
The wheels density is another crucial part of the ride on Eggboards. The softer the wheels, the smoother the ride. Also, the higher the chances to ride over the nasty cracks and bumps that populate our sidewalks.
Precision ABEC-9 bearings have the lowest friction among bearings in the market. As a result the wheels of your Eggboard will keep spinning for a looooong time.
This comes in handy when cruising around, where you can just keep rolling instead of having to step down and push every few feet.
This means also that your Eggboard can go really (really) fast if you want to. We recommend to get used to your Eggboard on flat grounds, or gentle downhills for this reason.
Eggboards decks are made of 3 layers of bamboo wood.
Bamboo is one of the most robust and durable woods, and provides a weight capacity on Eggboards of over 250lb.
Bamboo is also the most sustainable choice for a skateboard... by far. It is harvested sustainably, new shoots appearing from the roots every year and growing to harvestable condition in just four or five years, far faster than slow-growing hardwoods.
Bamboo also produces more than 35% more oxygen than trees. Research has demonstrated that bamboo can absorb as much as 12 tonnes of carbon dioxide per hectare per year, giving the plant a potentially crucial role in stabilizing our planet's atmosphere.
