Ian Tilmann died after crashing out on a fun longboard run in Florida. Ian wasn't wearing a lid and never regained consciousness. We lost a brother.
The Ian Tilmann Foundation created the Helmet for a Promise program, where people are able to pledge to always wear a helmet and the foundation will provide one at no cost. Click the logo or the text. |

Loki is a smaller version of the PAGAN, which was a collaboration with Justin Dubois. From the steep mountain passes of Colorado, Justin has been shredding on his PAGAN, and decided he wanted something a little smaller. We're now working together to combine Justin's idea of this smaller shape with Comet's patented construction and deep front pocket directional molding. We make this board as stiff as can be.

Longboard Review How long have you ridden the board: 4-5 monthsWhat is your setup like?: cruise & slide, 80a orange 4 pres, 81a and 83a venom supercarves,50 degree randals,abec 11 biltinsTypical Session Discipline: freeride,dhHow much did you pay?: 175Where did you purchase it?: motionboardshop in seatleWhat were the strengths of the deck.: cutouts-great cutouts can fit pretty large wheels if wanted to do dh or slide without the worry about wheel bite
rocker-comet rocker is the best rocker on a board i have ever felt in my life.locks ur feet in pretty well.
concave-not that much concave so its pretty comforable and doesnt cramp ur feet when riding. this concave is great for tucking.
shape- it has tapering good for tucking.What were the weaknesses?: not a very durable board if u flip the board the rail will crack or chip. but its mainly becuae of the rocker. but besides that its the best board i have ever ridden.Similar decks you have ridden?: sayshun polar, comet peganWould you recommend it?:
Yes

Longboard Review How long have you ridden the board: about two years, now?What is your setup like?: i got it with the
42* randals
70mm 4Pres
and the never-dying independent 7's bearingsTypical Session Discipline: slides, bombs, and commuteHow much did you pay?: $210 complete with the above setupWhere did you purchase it?: Woody's Halfpipe 4lifeWhat were the strengths of the deck.: it's taken a serious beating, has been smacked by quite a few car tires, ground curbs, hit several walls, and still no more than a couple chunks out of the nose...or did you mean the board? oh, no, the board's good.What were the weaknesses?: It's a little short for my taste, otherwise, no problems at all. i didn't much care for the loki graphic..but, i drew over it, took his eyes out, put blood on his tongue, covered it in concrete wave stickers, wrote latin quotes on the side, looks straight. Seriously, no problems.Similar decks you have ridden?: the FSM, but this one's more sick, i think. plus it lasts longer, assuming you're going nuts on the thing.Would you recommend it?:
Yes

Longboard Review How long have you ridden the board: about a monthWhat is your setup like?: Randall 42*, powerballz or coned otangs for freeride, and inheats for dhTypical Session Discipline: DH, freerideHow much did you pay?: I traded itWhere did you purchase it?: I traded it, but I would have purchased it at Motion Boardshop :DWhat were the strengths of the deck.: Super stable and really comfortable. I can dh on the same truck tightness as I would freeride on. Its really nice because the rocker and concave dont hurt your feet. Its also low, so pushing it isnt half badWhat were the weaknesses?: All comet boards have a slight delamming problem but I havent experienced that, you can just epoxy it up anyways. Other than that there arent really any I can think of.Similar decks you have ridden?: I really havent ridden a board this awesomeWould you recommend it?:
Yes
