A little extra girth never hurt anyone! At least that was Loaded's approach when it came time to revamp the design of the Pintail. Modernizing this classic concept so it could keep up with evolutions in riding styles, techniques, and performance expectations. The FatTail was designed for pumping, carving, pedestrian slalom, freestyle and generally any situation where lively, energetic lines are on the menu. Specifications:Length: 38IN Width: 8.6IN Wheelbase: 26.5 & 27.4IN Deck Weight: 1.2 Kg’s Flex 3: 75 - 175 lbs 34 to 79 Kg’s Flex 2: 125 - 215 lbs 57 to 98 Kg’s Flex 1: Up to 275 lbs Up to 125 Kg’sIncreased concave locks your feet in, while the top mounted and cambered platform provides energetic performance in and out of each carve. The width of the deck has been redistributed while maintaining subtle tapering near the trucks to provide both ample leverage and awareness of foot position while powering through turns. The formerly vestigial tail has received the silicone treatment for improved functionality in both freestyle tricks and surf-style shredding. The FatTail’s shape and contours has been redesigned to ensure more consistent flex characteristics throughout the entire length of the standing platform when using either wheelbase. The camber of the original Pintail has been kept, the concave has been increased and a full (if chunky) kick tail ahs been added. A vertically laminated bamboo core is sandwiched between fibreglass skins. The tail is reinforced with an additional layer of fibreglass (top) and carbon fibre (bottom) for added stiffness and abrasion resistance. The bottom is finished with a bamboo veneer with a die cut water droplet pattern, which is filled with transparent urethane and a “floatingIN graphic to give a sense of dimensionality.RRP: £144.95
