- ADVANCED DANCING PLATFORM – The Loaded Tarab is a performance longboard created for dancing, freestyle, carving, and urban commuting / alternative transportation.
- FUNCTIONAL DESIGN – Large platform for uninterrupted footwork. Nose and tail kicks provide maximum leverage for advanced trickery. Rockered profile and comfortable concave create an ergonomic platform for longboard dancing and freestyle. Innovative composite construction uses vertically laminated bamboo and basalt for a lightweight, lively, and durable ride. Urethane-reinforced kicktails and UHMWPE rails protect against freestyle-inflicted damage. Cork top layer provides vibration damping.
- TWO DISTINCT FLEXES – Damp and comfortable flex perfect for longboard dancing and freestyle. Flex 1 features an extra bamboo veneer for added stiffness and damping, while flex 2 is slightly lighter and noticeably more lively. Both flexes feature two truck-mounting options to accommodate a variety of riding preferences.
- PARIS TRUCKS – Paris 180mm, 50° matte black longboard trucks deliver smooth and controlled turning response that’s perfect for dancing, freestyle, and carving.
- ORANGATANG WHEELS – Orangatang Stimulus offer just the right amount of grip and slide for dancing and freestyle in a balanced, lightweight design. Choice of softer 80a orange (great for cruising, carving, and commuting) or firmer 86a yellow (ideal for tricks and sliding). Includes Loaded Jehu V2 bearings.
The Loaded Tarab is designed to push the boundaries of modern longboard dancing. Loaded Boards launched their first Dancer in 2008, followed by the Bhangra in 2010. The Tarab builds on that history. Lightweight, durable, and technical, the Tarab is intended to further the level of longboard dancing and modern freestyle.
Form and Function — Rocker, concave, symmetrical shape, kicktails, grab rails, and purposeful griptape combine to form an elegantly ergonomic platform for flowy footwork and the most frenetic freestyle dancing.
Damp and Durable — Bamboo and basalt construction keeps the Tarab light, lively, and durable. A cork top layer complements the griptape design, providing secure yet non-abrasive traction across the standing platform while also damping vibration. Urethane-reinforced kicktails and unique UHMWPE rails enhance durability, protecting against a wide array of freestyle-inflicted damage.
Versatile Variations — Available in two distinct flexes. Flex 1 features an extra bamboo veneer for added stiffness and damping. Flex 2 is slightly lighter and noticeably more lively. Both flexes feature two truck-mounting options to accommodate a variety of riding preferences.
