Landyachtz Drop Carve Longboard Review

Landyachtz Drop Carve Longboard

The drop carves got more flex than Jean Claude Van Damm. The type of forgiving flex that makes for a smooth flowing carve like a cascading water-fall. This board is thicker than the dervish which gives it a snappier rebound and allows you to really carve down the mountain with control and aggression. The drop carve has a super mellow concave that helps lock your feet into place for extra control. It was designed to be light weight and is easy to carry around if it was to be used for a campus commuter. The drop thru design lets you loosen up the trucks a little and get squirrly.

The drop carve is made from 100% bamboo wood. The length is 39.25″ with a nice wide deck that comes in at 9.75″ wide which is perfect for 10″ or 180mm trucks and a nice fat wheel like some hawgs or orangatang in-heats. It has a 30.25″ wheelbase which creates a nice smooth carve but is short enough to get around tight corners.

I would set this board up with some grizzly 852s in black with some red hawg monster wheels and a super fast bones swiss bearing.
