Loaded Boards Icarus Bamboo Longboard Skateboard Complete

Mad Board! Pricey but you get what you pay for with these kind of things;(Custom Loaded bamboo/fiberglass deck, huge Kegel wheels, concaved deck etc)Lightweight, very lively, fast, but somehow also locks in at speed - It's one of their newest products.My second Loaded Deck - Quality. Wanted the Icarus for a while.Arrived more than a week early, well packaged. The option I chose to have it shipped from US meant I saved like £60 (incl shipping cost) compared to other sellers, tryna extort for the import, made in Cally haha.Shoutout to TGM Skateboards, I like how you do business!If anyone is considering a pretty board or a present for a young boy, look no further.

Great smooth carving board. Fun flex. Quality throughout. It’s not quite as pumpable as a surf skate, but with full body action it drives forward at pace (though not uphill). For pumping I prefer a slide or carver, but neither go as fast as stably as this albeit at a price.

One of the best boards money can buy! Ordered from TGM skateboards, arrived almost 2 weeks before expected! Cant go wrong. It rides so smooths, it goes over bumps and twigs etc like it's nothing and is probably the best carving board money can buy

Muy buena calidad

It's beautiful, flexible and just playing fun. I wish I bought this board along time ago.

The stock photo does not do any justice on how beautiful this board is! This is my first longboard, and I definitely made a great choice, I am in love already with the sport. Did years of street skating and now gotta do something more relaxing. I'm still learning how to ride, but it is definitely a smooth ride on asphalt or sidewalks. Will have to update if my initial impressions change. Overall board setup is great. Purchased mine through Performance Longboarding seller, and can confirm their product description: Loaded Icarus Flex-2 Deck (2016 Graphic)Paris V2 180mm X 50 Degree RKP Trucks (2016 Satin Black)Orangatang 80mm X 80a Kegel Wheels (Orange)Bones Mini Logo Bearings (Skate Rated)Assembled by Performance Longboarding (Pro Build)Update #1:After a 10 mile ride, I was learning how to pump and I think I got the hang of it. Feels really fun when the board rebounds back. Board feels pretty stable at 25 mph. My longboard skill level is beginner, this board seems to be a perfect fit for me in what I want to learn in this sport. Carving/pumping/cruising. I went over some rough asphalt (the type that makes your feet go numb on a normal skateboard) and I was surprised at the amount of shock absorption it has. Still got a long way to go learning though! Will update if things change.Update #2Just took this for a 5 mile ride up and down the beach pike pathway. Heading up wasn't too bad, the was a slight headwind also according to Strava, there was an overall elevation of about 50 feet. The most memorable part of this ride was heading back, with a tailwind, I was able to pump and carve all the way back with ease! It was the first time it felt like I was gaining/maintaining speed when pumping/carving. This board is awesome, I don't think I need to update anymore. Only thing I need to do is protect the tail and nose.

I just got my board a few days ago. I’m just getting back into skating. All I was looking for was a nice smooth surf like ride. This board is everything I thought it would be. I’m still a noob and need practice, but with time. I’ll be carving the neighborhood like a pro. Slow rolling hills and smooth flats. This board is perfect for me and I haven’t stop riding since I got it. Loaded makes one hell of a board.Board flexes well and I’m 200lbs. Trucks are nice and the wheels grip and make you feel secure. Berings are nice, but are new so they should be.If you’re in need of a fun responsive board. Stop thinking. It’s here!!!Btw I’m not paid for this review, just a satisfied customer.

Why did I wait so long to get a long board? Like many mid-50 old guys I was into skating as a teen. I tried my daughters board recently and didn't do too bad! Then light bulb went off in my head - why not get something for myself? That night I researched quality longboards for cruising until 3:00 a.m. and selected this exact board. Was very pleased to find it on Amazon (cheaper anywhere else) and with my additional 5% cash back I got it for a shave over $300. Wow. It rides beautiful and fast. Just one tip for the other old guys - if you last used a 70's type board be aware when pushing that these wheels stick out far so you kind of have to keep that on your mind a bit at first. I say this because the back wheel hit my foot once while pushing and I almost fell.
