Loaded Boards Fattail Bamboo Longboard Skateboard Deck

I ordered the flex 3 & i received flex 2. But just feeling the flex 2, I'm not sure this is even completely bamboo. it feels just coated with it. returning it. very disappointed i stayed home to receive this order.

Loaded boards are by far the best choice for the advanced skater! Before purchasing one, one should look at the flex's and decide what kind of flexibility they are looking for. I have skated many boards however i keep coming back to the loaded brand for both wheels and decks. Truly the best of the best!

great deck, loaded makes the best quality products, the platform is a little narrow for me, but that is just my own personal preference.

What an awesome board that's thin, strong, and lightweight with nice detailed designed bamboo (i believe).

Wow, its a perfect peace of art, its thin, very light, perfect finish...totally love it, I bought it from Brazil, I paid the double of price because of brazilian taxes, but tottaly worth it!!!

This is by far the best deck in my collection! Like another reviewer stated, be sure to note the "Flex" level when selecting your deck. Loaded offers three levels of flex; Flex 1, 2 or 3 with 3 being very flexy. It's perfect for those who want hardcore flex for carving. The weight "recommendations" from Loaded on the Flex 3 are 75lbs to 175lbs. This does not mean the board will snap if you are over 175, it just means it will be extremely flexy. Most should go for the Flex 2, or Flex 1 if you like a stiff board and plan on doing lots of hard landing tricks. I'd suggest those new to longboarding to also go with the Flex 2. Although a bit more getting your balance on a flexy board, after a few days you'll have much more fun and ride on a board with a little flex to it. Of course, not good to have flex if you plan on bombing hills at high speeds.I'm 6'0 and 185 and ride the Flex 2 with Paris V2 150mm trucks and Orangatang In Heat 80a wheels. Perfect for a comfortable cruise, carve and roll speed with tons of grip.

My friend got this for her first board, which was a mistake because she was so inexperienced (she is now trying to sell the board) that she was not able to control the board and would constantly crash. However, I got the chance to ride it a few times, and even though it was harder to control than the simple boards I had been riding, I was blown away by how responsive and smooth the ride was.Pros:Responsive- even with a pair of gullwing sidewinders trucks, I was still able to bomb a few small hills without losing control of the boardSick carving- like I said, gullwing sidewinders are a match made in heaven for this boardWeight- the fattail is extremely lightCons:Flex- I felt like I was going to break the board when I stepped on it, even though I was within the weight range of this flex. I would suggest a flex 2 or 1 for anyone over 150 lbsControl- this is not for the inexperienced riderIf you're a veteran rider, I say get it- Loadeds are amazing quality boards. But it's kind of a dangerous board for a first timer. Great board to get around on.

Another amazing board from Loaded! Top notch quality longboard for carving, cruising, and freestyle. Note that the Loaded boards come with different flex ratings, Flex 1, 2, & 3 with Flex 1 the stiffest and Flex 3 being extremely flexy. Check out their website for suggested guidelines and if unsure, go with the Flex 2. I have mine set up with Paris V2 150mm trucks and Orang In Heat 80a. Best deck in my collection.
