If you are looking for a surf inspired longboard, the Hybrid aims high and delivers a true agressive surf simulation packed into a longboard skateboard package. Using a super tight turning radius, the Hybrid lets you practice your cutbacks, airs and overall balance on land via longboard so that when you hit the water, you don't miss a beat, or a wave.
Add a touch of Kelly, a dash of Andy and all the Mick you can handle. If you can rip on the water, you can rip the Hybrid on land. Stiff and responsive, on the Hybrid you will improve your surfing or die a cutback filled death trying. No deaths have yet been reported on this longboard. Froth on.
Drive off your back foot and charge the lip. The Hybrid's kicktail stance will generate all the power and speed you need to push yourself and your surfing while on land, giving you all the confidence required to charge harder in the water.
The Hybrid sports a wide central platform giving you a secondary stance option. Shift your weight and feet forward resulting in more stability and a finer degree of carving control. Drive forward off the tail and then trim up for control.
With so much power and flow coming from the trucks and the tail, the Hybrid deck stays stiff as a board to keep you confident. When really pushing it in the park, bowl or neighborhood, stiffness is key and the Hybrid is one longboard that has it.
If your favorite stick rocks foiled fins, you will immediately recognize the quickness the Original S6 (150mm) trucks generate for the Hybrid longboard. For true power surfers, the Hybrid can also be loaded with S8 (200mm) trucks for added drive.
Wheels up to 90mm
The Hybrid will distribute brutal longboard slashings to your local parks, bowls and driveways. Drive forward, cutback and take your surfing up to the next level on a longboard that was designed by surfers (who actually surf) to feel like your surfboard.
A fantastic longboard performer on the small hills, paths and driveways that make up your average every day neighborhood. If you are fed-up with the inability of your traditional longboard to really rip in the tight spaces and sidewalks, get a Hybrid and then rest easy, and rest up. You are going to need your energy for your backside attack on the local cement.
Weaving through the pedestrian crammed sidewalks and streets of New York requires a certain commitment, the same goes for dropping curbs directly next to on coming traffic. We don't recommend either, but if you have to do it, the Hybrid wouldn't be a bad choice of a longboard to do it on. Then keep your eyes out, you might even get the space to rip a few cutbacks.
The Hybrid will get your adrenaline going in the ditches or on the banks. Driving off the kicktail works as well coming into the transition of your favorite bank as it does on flat ground. The Hybrid is one of our favorite longboards for ditch / bank riding, whether you surf or not, it will quickly become one of yours as well.
The Hybrid will surf the park, the pipes and everything in between. Loose trucks on a short longboard mean that you have the power to draw new lines and flow like never before. Kickturns optional.
A tighter turning radius and smaller trucks mean Hybrid is one longboard that is a bit out of place for big mountain riding, but hills can be a blast. Perpare to surf your way down, slashing and sliding your wheels out along the way.
