Light, Quick, and Agile. A maneuverable and pumpable board with strong surf roots. The flex of the board works synergistically with your trucks. While intended as a soulful and aggressive commuter board, this puppy can hold its own on a hill if carved hard and is light enough to be carried back up or just about anywhere. Perfect for commuting around town, bank, pool riding, parking garages, and of course pedestrian slalom. Made in the USA.



Comes in two flexes:
  • Flex 1 (170-230+ lbs)
  • Flex 2 (100-190+ lbs)

    Not similar at all to any of the other Loaded boards. It has a stiffer flex to it since the board is shorter. I have yet to do some serious hands-down sliding on it, but from the Loaded videos it looks like you can slide this lil' fishy seriously. In other words, this is a sort of jack-of-all trades board. Like a swiss army knife of boards almost.
    Longboard Review
    How long have you ridden the board: one month
    What is your setup like?: Flex 2 (Weigh 125-ish, 5'3") with Tracker 139 RTS with randal yellow bottom bushings and Blue Tracker tops, 66mm 81a Strikers.
    Typical Session Discipline: Cruising, Carving
    How much did you pay?: 190
    Where did you purchase it?: shiplee.com (takes FOREVER)
    What were the strengths of the deck.: Very stable up to 25mph (hard to judge speed w/o any kind of equipment) super turny with the randal yellow bottoms in. With the strikers this board stand-up slides like butter. Love the kicktail, and the size is perfect because you can still do a lil' bit of x-stepping and what not on it. Very lightweight, easy to carry.
    What were the weaknesses?: Only thing I don't like so far is the fact that the rails take a beating and it looks uggs. Other than that, I guess razortail?
    Similar decks you have ridden?: None
    Would you recommend it?: Yes
    Was this review helpful to you? yes     no

    I really prefer the dervish over it for carving and pumping but for sliding, this one was a bit better because it was shorter.

    you're better off with the loaded dervish. if you are good at skateboarding and do kick flips and other skateboarding tricks, this board would be more fun. otherwise, all you will do is make tight turns and slide.

    Longboard Review
    How long have you ridden the board: 6 months
    What is your setup like?: stock set up, 129mm trackers rts, 70mm krypto classics
    Typical Session Discipline: cruisin'
    How much did you pay?: $220?
    Where did you purchase it?: Loaded.com
    What were the strengths of the deck.: Usable tail for steering, awesome amount of flex, very pumpable (i can't do it yet, but i'm getting close! (i think)), small enough you can do shortboard-type tricks on,
    What were the weaknesses?: not very long. which is the point of the fish, it's not supposed to be a super-stable high speed rider... which makes it sorta fun down smaller hills. an element of danger. also, sometimes i go to step onto the tail, and overestimate and step off the board... pretty scary. just takes getting used to.
    Would you recommend it?: Yes
    Was this review helpful to you? yes     no
