Introducing the Pantheon Supersonic LDP Longboard Deck. For those who already understand this type of LDP board, let’s just get a couple of key features out of the way that distinguishes this board from any other deck of this type made before. Firstly, it has been designed around the most classic and readily available RKP cast trucks available. The intention here is to offer a super high-functioning but cost-effective setup.
The Supersonic deck features a mild camber between the drops and incredibly tight curvature, considering the required curves necessary to make this geometry work. Pantheon has integrated very mild versions of crescent drops in all curvature points (even the down-curve of the de-wedged back end!) on this deck, making them stronger than boards of the past and allowing control where the board flexes. The concave is mellow, as it should be so that you’re comfortable no matter what distance you’re skating. But the curves are subtle and strong, and there are no true flat spots on the board anywhere, resulting in a superb board feel.
The Complete Setup:
- Deck: Pantheon Supersonic
- Trucks: Paris 150mm 50º (Polished or Black)
- Wheels: Orangatang Caguama 85mm
- Bearing: Loaded Jehu With Integrated Spacers
- Hardware: Loaded Flange Head Bolts
The Design
For LDP riders looking to pump, a classic wedge front, de-wedge rear setup is a must. You want high high-degree turning in front and a nice low-degree solid back end to throw your weight off of and create power. For the Supersonic, the built-in angles provide a ton of riding options. Riders will have a blast dialling in this setup and even changing it around for different riding styles.
The front of the Supersonic mounts at a positive 15º. That means that a Bear or Paris 50º truck will run at 65º. A quite high starting place for sure, but a high-degree front with soft bushings will pump super easily. It will also result in a more front-weighted pump on your LDP longboard. This is ideal if the P stands for pushing AND pumping, especially. If you’re looking to dial it down a little, a truck in the 40-45º range will be a little more forgiving for all-out pushing speeds, while still netting a high angle of around 55-60º for efficient pumping.
The rear of the Supersonic is where even more options come into play. There are two mounting options. Mounting is available on the high, 40º angled wedge or on the far rear -17º angled tail. The -17 degree rear is obvious enough. We will typically use a lower-degree cast truck in this position—either a Paris 43º or a Bear 40º. The wedged 40º rear is designed for a FLIPPED rear truck, netting zero or near zero degrees in the back. The zero-degree rear option is incredibly stable for high-speed pushing. It is also effective for top-end speeds in pumping, although more effort will be required than when using the conventional -17º rear.
