Pantheon: Trip Whale Longboard Skateboard Deck

The Pantheon Trip is our most familiar and longest standing double drop longboard designed for fun commuting and long distance efficiency. Our Trip features three fun constructions options:

• the classic “Fields” graphic with applewood veneer and fiberglass construction
• Carbon bottom “Indian Hills” graphic
• Pre-preg fiberglass “Whale” graphic in two flexes: light and heavy

The Trip has gone through years of iterations since its first inception in 2015. The newest shaping features a 1.2-inch “crescent drop,” a Canadian maple core, and various composite materials. The Pantheon Trip remains the best double drop commuter deck on the market for most riders, because it is low, nimble, lightweight, and couples with huge wheels to roll over just about everything in its path.

LONGBOARD SPECS

• Length: 33.25″ / 84.5 cm
• Width: 9″ / 22.9 cm
• Wheelbase: 27.25″ / 69.6 cm
• Profile: mustache rocker

FUNCTIONAL DESIGN – The Trip’s outline shape is cut to maximize usable surface area and minimize the chance of wheelbite. A slightly tapered waist complements the camber profile for a subtle suspension effect. The open-ended nose and tail provide flexural relief, protection against impact damage, and ease of assembly. Neutral truck mounting angles simplify setup while offering a versatile starting point for customization.

CURVACEOUS CONFIDENCE – Pantheon’s highly functional crescent drop lowers the center of gravity and stiffens the drops for efficient pushing while also providing enhanced lateral support and general ergonomics. The drop also allows for effortless slide initiation to control speed in common settings like hilly urban environments or paths and trails. Mustache rocker profile combines subtle camber at the deck’s midpoint with rocker under the feet. The localized camber pairs with the slightly tapered waist to provide suspension characteristics while allowing the rest of the board to remain stiff for optimum control. Mellow radial concave provides an ideal balance of edge control and riding comfort. The junctions between concave and crescent drop create three-dimensional pockets for secure and intuitive ergonomics.

SNAPPY, LIGHT, & LOW – The Trip is a low riding steeze machine that is efficient and effective for all of your commuting and distance riding needs. A 6-ply maple core is sandwiched between layers of triaxial fiberglass with a protective wood veneer on the bottom so that you don’t scratch that structural composite layer on curbs. This layup results in a thin, stiff, and lightweight structure with snappy, responsive flex characteristics. Combine with large, soft wheels, and you’ve got an absolute cruising machine that will suck up road vibrations and keep you going all day long.
