Description

Coming from a long running friendship with Carver, Loaded has been experimenting with surfskate truck technology for years.

Now, pushing the boundary of what defines a surfskate, the Loaded Tangent and Fathom Surfskate Editions are a unique marriage of surfskate agility and longboard flow. Pairing the revolutionary Zee Bracket system with Carver trucks and big wheels has opened up surfskate truck performance on a double-drop board for the first time.

The Tangent Surfskate Edition is stable and maneuverable with an innovative construction and low ride height that makes this board a pioneer in a new category of skateboarding we like to call “distance surfskate.”

You'll Love This If…
  • You have been “surfskate-curious” but want an even more stable, roomier platform that instills maximum confidence compared to a typical surfskate setup.
  • You love surfskating and want to be able to use large wheels to skate longer distances with ease and to not worry about cracks or road debris.
  • You want to try distance surfskating on a vibration-damping board that is long and stable with the lowest ride height.
  • You want an easy-to-ride board that strikes a beginner-friendly balance between stability and maneuverability for an accessible surfskate experience.

Looking for a slightly more compact platform and even greater agility? Check out the Loaded Fathom!

A Whole New Setup

A whole new experience to reimagine surfskating: big wheels and a super-low ride height. Our distance surfskate setup is equipped with a Carver CX truck set and Orangatang Kegels for a refined surfskate experience with responsive, snappy turns and effortless pumping.

Premium Bushing Configuration

Upgraded with Orangatang bushings, this setup is all about high performance, agility, and smooth control. In front we have a mix of purple Knuckles roadside and orange Nipples boardside combining for energetic turns and yellow Nipples in the rear for drive and stability. It’s a comfortable performance double-drop bracket board to blend surfskate and long-distance skating, built to get you pumping fast and to maintain your speed while also helping to avoid wheelbite.

Unrivaled Control

The Tangent is stable and easy to control. The Zee Bracket system and rocker profile provide the lowest ride height for easy pushing and footbraking. Rocker also wedges the trucks slightly for tighter turning and gives the rider a locked-in feel. The mega-upturned corners provide a palpable reference point for foot positioning and a secure pocket for pumping.

Relaxed Ergonomics

The concave “tub” design is flat in the middle and slopes up towards the side rails of the deck, resulting in added comfort, responsiveness, and agility. Ample real estate accommodates a wide range of rider sizes and allows the option to adjust your stance over longer distances or to alternate pushing between mongo and regular.

Innovative Construction

Maple and basalt composite construction provides lightweight durability while also ensuring a smooth ride thanks to a subtle, long-lasting damp flex. Coarser griptape at the ends relays tactile feedback for intuitive foot positioning.

Fantastic

"I evacuated the wildfire with just my Jamie O’Brian CX that I’ve had for many years, and my fav surfboard. This ride is fantastic: great low deck, pumps like my surfboard after pushing up to basic speed, great for fun pleasure rides. Seems super-designed: well chosen deck stiffness, spring of their chosen bushings, roll and grip of the wheels. Has the hollow CX. I’m 193#, 6’1, 58yrs. I love the feel of the flared deck corners in my Vans, and that coarse tape there! Thanks so much C+L for such a great design and quality! ❤️ V. I didn’t have much time for research, with Fire tasks, and just bet you two would make something fab. Very appreciated you did for me."
