Loaded Tan Tien Flex 1
Loaded Tan Tien Flex 1 
Last of the original Tan Tien graphics

An amalgamation of technical design, aesthetics, and premium performance; the Tan Tien manifests the desire to develop new tricks and engage new riding styles. From its foot-locking concave, drop-thru truck mounting and pumpable camber to its responsive nose and tail kicks; the Tan Tien blends carve oriented longboarding with advanced trick riding. Pregripped with an aggressive black griptape designed to provide a locked-in feel and maximum coverage, while at the same time retaining the board's intended flex characteristics. Quick and agile, with a 27" wheel base (inner hole) and a 8.75" width. The Tan Tien is designed to work with 180mm trucks and 70mm wheels.

Common questions answered by Loaded
Is the flex pattern the same as the Dervish?
The Tan Tien is generally a stiffer flex than the Dervish. In the Tan Tien video, we are all riding Flex 2's and they are plenty stiff for slides and tricks.

I am thinking of a Flex 1 Tan Tien because I'll be doing hand tricks, is that ok?
A Flex 1 Tan Tien will feel pretty rock solid for anyone around 70kg or less. We made this board extra stiff for hard pounding riders and it makes a good swizzle stick.

I am into flexy boards, should I get the Flex 3?
The Flex 3 is fairly stiff and is a good choice for riders under 80kg who want a nice playful carving flex.

What is Loaded's recommended set up?
We recommend 180mm trucks and 70mm wheels on the Tan Tien. 75mm wheels or 150mm trucks are NOT recommended, as you will run the chance of getting wheel bite.
