The Manhattan takes ultra tight mini longboard carving to your streets, in the city or otherwise. Ideal for kids, or any small rider, advanced surf skaters will also have a blast. The Manhattan lets you easily carry your longboard skateboard where ever it is that you are heading. Where else will you find a longboard that fits in the overhead carry on compartment.
The Manhattan longboard was designed to incorporate a full kicktail with a snubkick nose, delivering a lively ride along with a secure stance that makes sure you stay on top of your carves. Scaled down to mini longboard size to work perfectly for kids or small people in the 50 to 125 lbs range, the Manhattan has become a favorite of the bigger guys too. One of our tightest carving longboards, the Manhattan is ideal for zigging in and out of sidewalks, construction cones or people. One of the best choices on the market for mini longboard carving.
Kick some tail.
The Manhattan deck delivers control when you need it. Power, piped straight through the kick tail. Combine that with an agressive concave normally found on shortboard skateboards and you have a mini longboard deck that really kicks.
Power to the pumpers.
With more power for pumping and surf skating, the Manhattan deck is stiff with generous concave to keep you in control of all that juice. With the Manhattan, you get a feel for your deck so you can keep your eyes on the road.
Multiple personalities.
The Manhattan comes with available wheelbase adjustment for four seperate wheelbase possibilities. Adjust your wheelbase in for tighter turns or out for more predictable cruising. Plus, a wheelbase that can grow with your growing boy or girl is never a bad thing.
Hold onto your hats.
The Manhattan was designed specifically for the Original S6 (150mm) longboard trucks. Combine short wheelbase precision carving with the quickness of Original trucks and the result is a whole lot of control. Slip into your skate shoes, hop on the Manhattan and hold onto your hat.
