Landyachtz Tomahawk

So, looking for a freestyle board? Or maybe something you can ollie, kickflip, G-turn, manual, drop off of curbs with or just screw around with in general. Well then the Tomahawk is definitely for you. It's an amazing commuting and freeride http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifboard for people that want a jack of all trades type board, unfortunately though, the slight flex, and mild concave make it not so great for speedboarding, or any speeds past 40mph and 40 would be pushing it. The Tomahawk has a dropped platform and is symmetrical making it possible for switch riding and gives it a real "get up and go" feeling since you can just hop on either way and not worry about which side is the "nose and tail". And speaking of nose and tail, what makes this board so unique is it's actually equipped with a real nose and tail instead of just an overhang to enhance pop on tricks or give your foot something to rest on while commuting and to make it easier getting onto and off of curbs and poorly made ride-ups.

The Landyachtz Tomahawk Longboardcan be set up with Randalls and Paris's but I highly recommend bears for this board as all landyacht boards were made to go with Bears. Also, as far as wheels go anything 75mm and below will work but honestly for this board a 70mm would be just about perfect for as an all around wheel, going for a softer wheel if you're just commuting or a harder wheel if you plan on doing tricks and sliding. Also if you have some extra money throw some down on some bones reds or ceramic bearings if you really want this thing to haul...tucus.
