Wefunk Minicruiser Christmas Promo Offer $179.00

WefunkWefunk

Wefunk is legendary, for design, construction, aesthetics and style in longboards, speedboards and amazing mini's. Extreme quality comes at a price, and it's even higher for those outside of Europe. For Christmas 2010, Alex "Wefunk" Luxat has a limited promotion for Silverfish Longboarders on a radical Wefunk board, featuring his new Funkster trucks and wheels, too.

The deck is 4ply, Canadian maple core, sandwiched between biaxial fiberglass and epoxy-mpregnated bamboo veneers. The epoxy-impregnated bamboo acts as a final unidirectional composite layer, supporting and protecting the fiberglass layers. The result is a stiff flex with incredible rebound, just enough to add comfort while keeping the deck agile and responding. The price is "shipped" to North America!!

Loaded Bhangra Longboard $234.00

LoadedLoaded

Loaded Longboard's new Bhangra is a more compact dancing/freestyle board that you could basically do everything on. A board that has plenty of room to get your dancing groove on and is smaller, lighter, and easier to throw around. Something that is not overly huge, can bust out steezy slides, and can be carried and fit into a trunk easier. This all-around stoke board sold like mad in the Silverfish presale and now you can get one (with several options in trucks and wheels) for the skaters you love. Yes, plural! Click to find it on the Daddies List!
