 Jet Tomahawk Longboard Deck Jet longboards are built in the USA using hard rock Maple, precision molds and teh finest adhesives available. The various models shown will cover the needs of the most demanding downhill racers and performance freeriders. For 2011 many of the decks implement drop-through designs which lowers the center of gravity. They also feature cutouts that eliminate "wheel bite" for maximum lean while carving. Currently all boards are sold "deck only" without griptape. For best results, combine them with Abec 11 or Orangatang wheels, Bones Reds bearings and your favorite longboard truck (i.e., Randal, Navigator, Bear). You aren't the type who lags around or skates at the rear of the pack. Neither should your next board brand. Behind the scenes at JET Skateboards there is full throttle, non-stop product development. We never look back. For 2012 the JET brand is releasing 4 new and exciting series in addition to its updated Radar series. The Hellfire, Skatera, Invasion, Air Core and Radar series take advantage of 8 mold choices and 4 construction techniques to form an incredible collection of premium decks and completes. The growing list of JET riders are constantly driving and evolving the designs to higher and higher levels. Jet is committed to performance and progression and keeping longboarding as it should be - Raw. Innovative, Aggressive, Powerful and Fun! We're putting together Grom and Am programs such as the JET Squadron to help drive DH to younger generations that will in turn take it to new levels. Just as in Street Skating, Downhill & Freeriding have to be affordable so that all age groups can get involved. We believe those China-cheap or corporate package setups are Not the solution. Custom decks are definitely the way to go because you'll get better components and quality without spending more money long term. The 2012 Hellfire, Skatera, Invasion, Air Core and Radar series line-up takes advantage of 8 brand new mold choices and diverse construction techniques to form an incredible collection of premium decks and completes. We spent countless hours working as a team to make sure each concave was perfect for each particular model. All Jet decks are handmade in the USA! Features AMP Construction: 7-ply, 8-ply, 9-ply and 10-ply Canadian hard rock Maple constructions. Not all maple is the same and neither are the ways in which you bond the veneers. It's not rocket science but that's not to say that our constructions are common or easy. For us, every board we make is made with attention to detail, the highest quality materials and striving to produce the best possible product. There are diverse ways to build quality skateboards. Yes, you can get super high-tech, but the fact is that whether it's a street deck or a DH racing model, more top riders will continually place their trust in quality Maple laminate constructions… time after time. We use handpicked wood, precision molds by Sean Mallard and the finest adhesives. We call it AMP, Advanced Maple Pressing, and it's unique for the way we create stronger bonds. We won't go into detail, but it shows up in both the quality & the ride. All JET's are proudly made in the USA. Feel free to contact us for more information.
