GRAPHICS
Tomás Güereña (a.k.a. “screw”) is influenced by Robert Delaunay, cosmological geometry, Native American art, contemporary urban art, and the marine environment. He created the Willy and Moby Ballona graphics, respectively, through abstract and figurative approaches.
CLASSIC LAYUP WITH A TWIST
Custom 7-ply maple construction with thicker cross veneers for optimal stiffness, crisp pop, and a smooth ride.
Paris V2 Trucks
The Paris V2 trucks are renowned for their superior performance and durability, making them a top choice for longboard enthusiasts. These high-quality trucks feature a 50-degree baseplate, offering an ideal balance of stability and maneuverability for both cruising and carving. The open bushing seat provides a smooth, fluid turn, while the grade 8 steel axles ensure robust support. Additionally, the Paris V2 trucks are designed with an elegant, sleek finish that complements any longboard setup
Orangatang Dad Bods
The Orangatang Dad Bod Wheels are the most high-performance 100mm+ urethane skateboard wheel in existence. Four years of development, Orangatang's new TrypoCore and their tried-and-true Happy Thane formula combine to create the ultimate big-wheel longboarding experience at a shockingly lightweight.
Orangatang Nipple Bushings
Designed to provide a lively and energetic ride, Orangatang Nipples will revitalize any setup for carving, pumping, dancing, freestyle and freeride.
Durometers:
- Soft (orange): 75-200+ lbs / 34-90+ kg
- Medium (purple): 150-250 lbs / 68-113 kg
- Hard (yellow): 175-275 lbs / 79-125 kg
CURVACEOUS CONFIDENCE
Subtle rocker in the standing platform transitions into the unique “Whale Belly” spoon concave in the nose, which locks in the front foot and allows for a secure stance behind or on top of the truck. This also wedges the front truck for dramatically enhanced agility, resulting in a slalom-style steering bias that allows the more stable rear end to track the more nimble front end. The Ballona’s mild concave and generous width ensure a comfortable stance and plenty of leverage and control. A short, wide tail and minimal nose provide optimal maneuverability and leverage for slides and tricks in a compact package.
VERSATILE VARIATIONS
The Ballona includes two wheelbase options for a range of performance characteristics. The outer (16”) wheelbase is designed for reverse-kingpin trucks and/or more stability, while the inner (14.75”) wheelbase is intended for traditional-kingpin (street) trucks and/or more maneuverability. The two deck graphics are offered in uniquely curated complete setups; choose Moby to slash every driveway in sight or Willy for a premium carving and pumping machine.
