The Loaded Tangent Deck is a purpose-built longboard platform designed specifically for distance skating, commuting, and efficient everyday pushing. Created by Loaded Boards, the Tangent reflects a stripped-down, functional approach to long-distance design, focusing on ergonomics, comfort, and momentum rather than excess size or weight. Its compact standing platform delivers everything you need underfoot without wasted space, making it an ideal choice for skaters who want efficiency and control over long sessions.
Measuring approximately 26 inches long with a generously wide platform, the Tangent provides ample room for a relaxed, natural stance while remaining nimble and easy to manage in urban environments. A subtle rocker profile gently cradles your feet, helping reduce fatigue and keeping your stance locked in during long pushes and footbraking. The flex is carefully tuned to offer a supportive ride that smooths out road vibration without feeling soft or unstable, striking an excellent balance between comfort and responsiveness.
Constructed from a maple and basalt composite, the Tangent deck delivers impressive strength and durability while maintaining a lighter, more refined feel underfoot. The basalt layer enhances vibration damping and longevity, making the deck well suited to rough pavement, long commutes, and distance-focused skating where comfort matters just as much as performance. This construction gives the Tangent a lively but controlled ride feel that stays consistent over time.
Designed to pair seamlessly with bracket systems, the Tangent deck is optimized for low ride height and large wheel compatibility when built up, allowing skaters to create an ultra-efficient long-distance or commuter setup tailored to their preferences. As a deck-only offering, it gives you full freedom to choose your own brackets, trucks, wheels, and bearings, making it an ideal foundation for a custom build.
The Loaded Tangent Deck is a refined, modern solution for skaters who value efficiency, comfort, and thoughtful design. Whether you’re building a dedicated distance board, a daily commuter, or a minimalist push setup, the Tangent delivers a focused platform that’s built to go far with less effort.
