PERFORMANCE MINI CRUISER – The Loaded Ballona is a high-performance longboard created for carving, pumping, commuting, driveway slashing, pump tracks, and skatepark flow.
CURVACEOUS CONFIDENCE – Subtle rocker and unique spoon concave in the nose lock in the front foot for a secure stance. This also wedges the front truck for dramatically enhanced agility. Mild concave and generous width for comfort and control. A short, wide tail and minimal nose provide maneuverability and leverage for slides and tricks in a compact package.
VERSATILE VARIATIONS – Two wheelbase options for a range of performance characteristics: 16” for reverse-kingpin trucks or more stability and 14.75” for traditional-kingpin (street) trucks or more maneuverability.
CLASSIC LAYUP WITH A TWIST – Custom 7-ply maple construction with thicker cross veneers for optimal stiffness, crisp pop, and a smooth ride.
SHRIMP OF A BOARD. WHALE OF A GOOD TIME. Agile, compact, and light, the Loaded Ballona elevates the mini cruiser experience. Meticulously sculpted curvatures result in a unique mini “longboard” with tuned steering and responsive handling. Perfect for urban commuting, people slalom, driveway slashing, pump tracks, and skatepark flow. Small in stature, colossal in character. CURVACEOUS CONFIDENCE — Subtle rocker in the standing platform transitions into the unique “Whale Belly” spoon concave in the nose, which locks in the front foot and allows for a secure stance behind or on top of the truck. This also wedges the front truck for dramatically enhanced agility, resulting in a slalom-style steering bias that allows the more stable rear end to track the more nimble front end. The Ballona’s mild concave and generous width ensure a comfortable stance and plenty of leverage and control. A short, wide tail and minimal nose provide optimal maneuverability and leverage for slides and tricks in a compact package. VERSATILE VARIATIONS — Two wheelbase options for a range of performance characteristics: 16” for reverse-kingpin trucks or more stability and 14.75” for traditional-kingpin (street) trucks or more maneuverability. CLASSIC LAYUP WITH A TWIST — Custom 7-ply maple construction with thicker cross veneers for optimal stiffness, crisp pop, and a smooth ride.
