The genuine ShortDeck is a recycled and handcrafted premium quality skateboard from Bavaria.
It is shorter, nimbler and a lot faster than the street decks you might know.
You can glide for miles with an original ShortDeck without putting your foot on the ground, whether you're floating through the city or cruising on the country side.
A ShortDeck is your best and most stylish companion during traveling: It helps you carry your backpack and you'll be able to use it with any means of transport. Some airports even allow you to use it as carry-on!
All ShortDecks are different and unique. They have scars, showing that the are an upcycling product.
The premium parts applied are tested and used by longboarders. Thus they have an amazing durability and ease of motion.
the decks:
The decks are made of different layers of wood. They are very solid and were used by pro skaters.
Their shapes avoid wheelbites and are reminiscent of surfboards. You are able to get them with (62-63cm) or without kicktail (52-53cm).
the trucks:
The trucks are used for slalom skateboarding. Their agility is amazing and the high end coil springs cater for a great directional stability and a surf-like feeling.
The trucks are mounted on shock absorbing riserpads. This will smoothen your ride and prevent wheelbites.
the bearings:
The high-end ABEC5 bearings are extremely smooth-running and durable because they are crafted really precisely and use stainless parts.
the wheels:
Floating on orangatang wheels.
The 4President wheels are tall (70mm), wide (53mm) and soft (80A). You call them tunnel-wheels. They give you the traction to corner sharply and the smooth running to swallow some pebbles, fugues and rough asphalt.
