What the brand say about the Waterborne Skateboards Taurus widebody bamboo surf skate deck –
‘This board sports a wide deck with medium concave from the front truck to the wide tail. It is capable of anything from cruising to shredding steep transitions. The rear surf rail adapter allows for more rail-to-rail lean, meaning maximum performance and forward pumping drive.’
‘There are days where nothing goes your way- days that make you feel like a total loser. Maybe you knock over a trashcan backing out of your driveway and run over your dog pulling back in. Whatever it may be, just know that there’s always a way to put a positive spin on things. So pick up that trash, sort the recycling, and dig a nice grave for your dog… And if your life is headed downhill, you might as well be riding a skateboard.‘
