The Jalopi Tugboat is a tank on four wheels — wide, mean, and built to drag you through any terrain you throw at it. At 9.8 inches wide with a 32.25 inch length and a 14.5 inch wheelbase, this board feels like pure control under your feet. It’s got the guts of a performance board but the brawn of a warship, ready to grind curbs, carve pools, bomb ditches, and still cruise the streets like it owns them.
This isn’t some fragile popsicle. The Tugboat gives you real estate under your feet — wide enough to lock you in, stable enough to charge hard, and still nimble when you need to whip it around. Routed wheelwells mean you can bolt on fat wheels and dive into deep carves without worrying about bite. It’s confidence in wood form — push harder, carve deeper, and slam into terrain without second guessing.
Ride and Feel
The Tugboat feels solid from the first push. Wide platform, planted stance, and that “all-terrain ready” vibe. It’s the kind of board that makes you want to hit everything in sight: the curb cut, the ditch wall, the pool coping, the sketchy bank nobody touches. It’s not picky, it just wants action. Arms forward, arms back, frontside, backside — the Tugboat doesn’t flinch.

Graphics & Attitude
Jalopi nails the vibe with ropes, knots, and a tugboat hauling across the water under a smiling sun — and yeah, a frosty beer mug floating in the distance. It’s tongue-in-cheek, nautical chaos, and pure Antihero energy. This isn’t polished art — it’s skateboarding’s working-class humor burned right into the deck.
Why You Want the Tugboat
- Wide-bodied power deck with room to breathe
- Stable enough for pools and ditches, fast enough for streets
- Bigger wheel clearance for rough terrain and heavy carves
