Loaded Tarab Longboard Deck

The Loaded Tarab is designed to push the boundaries of modern longboard dancing.  The Tarab was launched back in 2008 becoming the first dancer in loaded range, followed by the Bhangra in 2010. The Tarab builds on that history. Lightweight, durable and technical, the Tarab is intended to further the level of longboard dancing and modern freestyle.

Loaded Tarab Features:

Form and Function: 

Rocker, concave, symmetrical shape, kicktails, grab rails, and purposeful griptape combine to form an elegantly ergonomic platform for flowy footwork and the most frenetic freestyle dancing.

Damp and Durable: 

Bamboo and basalt construction keeps the Tarab lightweight, lively, and durable. A cork top layer complements the griptape design, providing secure yet non-abrasive traction across the standing platform while also damping vibration. Urethane-reinforced kicktails and unique UHMWPE rails enhance durability, protecting against a wide array of freestyle-inflicted damage.

Versatile Variations: 

Available in two distinct flexes. The Flex 1 features an extra bamboo veneer for added stiffness and damping. The Flex 2 is slightly lighter and noticeably more lively. Both flexes feature two truck-mounting options to accommodate a variety of riding preferences.

Rocker: 

Rocker cradles the outer edges of your feet and creates a subtle locked-in sensation, providing a steady and natural platform for foot movement. Rocker helps keep your feet firmly planted in slides and also slightly lowers your center of gravity for enhanced stability.

Integrated Wheel Wells: 

Wheel wells are pre-milled into the core to increase wheel clearance, allowing for a fuller and more uninterrupted standing platform than wheel cutouts.

Concave:

 Mild concave promotes edge control and awareness without hindering comfort while carving and boardwalking.

Symmetrical Shape: 

A fully symmetrical shape ensures optimal ergonomics for any maneuver in every orientation. Urethane Reinforced Nose & Tail Kicks: Beefy and symmetrical nose and tail kicks provide ample leverage and a comfortable surface for catching tricks and balancing manuals. High-durometer urethane inserts are integrated in the deck to provide crisp pop with enhanced durability against impact and abrasion.

Grab Rails: 

Grab rails on the deck's underside shave weight and improve control on hand grab tricks. Matte bottom finish keeps sweaty fingers secure.

Griptape:

 The Tarab’s purposefully designed griptape pattern provides traction along the rails for carving and sliding and a more aggressive grit at the nose and tail for manuals and shuvits.

Cork Top: 

The top layer of cork offers secure yet non-abrasive traction for pirouettes and other spinning and pivoting footwork.

Flex: 

The Tarab’s bamboo, basalt, and cork construction provides a comfortable balance of liveliness and vibration damping. Two flex options are tailored for maximum fun for any size rider.

UHMWPE Rails: 

The top edge rails are reinforced with Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene to enhance the durability of the top rails when the board lands upside down.
