One of the most popular high performance all around longboards from Loaded Longboards is called the Loaded Dervish Longboard. The Derivhs has a lower center of gravity and a torsionally stiff design, the Loaded Dervish Bamboo longboard is built to hold an edge and maximize energy return.
The Loaded dervish longboard has a drop-thru carver designed to work with most reverse kingpin geometry trucks and 70mm+ wheels. The dervish a small nose and tail for manual and shovit tricks.
The construction of the loaded dervish longboard:
Epoxy and Tri-axle fiberglass sandwich a vert-lam Bamboo core, pressed into concave and convex cambers for liveliness, responsiveness and high energy potential.
The Dervish is available in two flexes:
Flex 1: 170 lb – 230 lbs
Flex 2: 100 lb – 180 lbs
Keep in mind that a softer flex pattern will give you more control and tighter turns at a wide range of speeds, but tend to lose stability slightly at higher speeds. Stiffer flex means more energy potential and more stability at higher speeds, but will not be as forgiving and lively when cruising.
