Waka Huia | Drop-through Longboard

Riding:
The drop-through shape means that your centre of gravity is lower, making these boards super stable. Drop-through longboards support a wider variety of riding styles. The concave top surface allows for a more controlled ride. Our drop-through boards are fitted with steel nose and tail guards for greater strength and board protection when riding.

Setup:
Regardless of whether you purchase your trucks, wheels etc from us, or not, we recommend the following:

Trucks: 180mm (7”) width high quality raw-finished aluminium
Wheels: 70mm diameter x 45mm width, 78A (black, stone ground finish)
Hardware: High quality stainless steel, 30mm M5 with nylock nuts

If choosing the full set up option, the above will be provided.

Sourced just 45km from our workshop and with a with a range of tones from chocolatey brown to blonde, this hardwood is a stunning choice for our mini bullet boards and longboards. A super durable timber, blackwood is the perfect material for our rideable range. We recommend the drop-through board for both beginners and more advanced riders.
