Deck cut out: All Dervish stock in Australia have the new cut out pattern for trucks. The pattern changed in early 2008, and any stock in Australia of the old pattern has been sold out for a long time. If you have an old pattern board, there is nothing wrong with it, the new pattern is just an improvement.
Flex Pattern is 1: Flex 1 is recommended for skaters between 77kg and 105+kg
Stiffer flex means more energy potential, more stability at higher speeds, and makes tricks in the air easier, but will not be as forgiving and lively when cruising.
A softer flex pattern will give you more control and tighter turns at slower speeds and make it easier to slide, but tends to lose stability slightly at higher speeds.
What Loaded Flex pattern should I choose?

Our standard set up is Paris 180 trucks, 75mm InHeat 80a Orangatang wheels, bones red bearings, with spacers, protective riser between board and baseplate. This set up is an excellent all round longboard. Wheels are soft and nice to cruise on. InHeats will slide when broken in, but most people use inHeat because they are a great carving wheel. If you want to slide, get the freeride wheels. Freerides are good for sliding but not slippery, it will carve and bite into the road when needed. The bigger 75mm wheel will roll over most cracks and rocks. 80a wheels are good option if your local roads are a bit rough. If you need a board a bit lower to the ground, easier for foot braking, choose a 70mm wheel.
You can choose your own truck and wheel options below. If you are unsure, select the default and put in the customer notes at check out, your height, weight and rising type and we will choose a matching set up.
All boards and Orangatang wheels are in stock, we ship so you get it next day.
