DB Longboards Long Distance Pushing Commuter (LDP) - Great for Cruising and Carving

Mi longboard favorita hasta ahora. Increíble calidad, bastante compacta y manejable. Super bonito el diseño y detalles de la tabla.

I am under 75kg, height of above 1.7metres, rode street/park 30 years ago and now into my 4th year of Long Distance Push/ Pump. I bought this from AmazonSG for a bargain (under SGD75) and was pleasantly surprised at my first 8km ride - averaging 15km/h, maxing out near 19km/h (with headwind). This is purely a pusher/commuter deck (not a pumper) and the large wheels soak up rough paths and small debris. I categorise this with my other pushers like the Pantheon Pranayama (31.5", 9" wide), and the Landyachtz DropCat (33", 9.6" wide). While this DB deck is specced as 9.3" wide, it does feel slimmer than the Pranayama underfoot (US8.5 size feet). The DB (8ply) has minimal flex to the DropCat (7ply) and Prana (6ply). The DB does feels a little bit more twitchy and the first ride had a faint rattling (despite my checks and tinkering with the bolts and nuts pre-ride). This may likely be addressed with a change of trucks (TKPs of your preference) and built-in bearings (instead of the stock ones with spacers). But if you are a beginner, I think the DB stock setup is just fine. The 90mm CloudRide wheels feels almost like Zenit's 90mm LDP wheels (I think there are the same) and eat up small twigs and pebbles to smoothen the ride. The only Con for me was the deck graphics - which I will eventually paste over anyway. ALL IN ALL, a decent ride, not high quality, but a good beginner deck or as a spare commuter.

Some visible cracks. sign of very long time stock . expensive for it’s condition.

Smooth ride. This rides like plushy Mercedes in comparison to my old kryptonics board which feels like a dump truck. 90 mm wheels are insanely good in terms of roll and crushing everything in its path. One good push will get you two complete circles. Insane roll. Very stable and low platform gives you confidence to stand on one leg and push hard. These come with atlas 149 mm street trucks and not 180 mm trucks as listed. Also these are not lightning bearings as listed, regular cloud ride abec bearings with black seals. Haven't had any problems with bearings yet. Double drop gives you a clearance of 2 to 2.5 inches above ground. At its deepest turn clearance is around 1 inch. Btw, I weigh 170lbs. If you are heavier clearance could be less. Color of the top deck is teal and not blue. Wheelbase is 25 inch. You need a good technique to make a sharp turn at high speed. Not easy for tricks due to heavy wheels. Ultimate smooooooth ride and rollllllllll.

Super👍
