Bhangrâ - We picked this name while Adam Colton
was off the grid in Morocco in order to twist his
Nipples into creating Bollywood style skate films.
Purpose: We wanted to create a more compact
dancing/freestyle board that you could basically
do everything on. A board that has plenty of room to get your
dancing groove on and is smaller, lighter, and easier to throw around. Something that is not
overly huge, can bust out steezy slides, and can be carried and fit into a trunk easier. Can you downhill on
this board? Probably, but it is not a DH board.
Rocker: We are really stoked on the rocker in this board (the board has a slight “U” bend to it). The original
prototype had camber and felt good, but we decided to put some rocker in it and bam a ram, it instantly felt
so much better. The rocker just sinks you into the board and gives you that extra cushy, locked in feel. Feels
great for dancing, makes sliding a lot easier and more comfortable, and puts the board lower to the ground,
making pushing a tad bit easier.
Concave: HURRAY, we added concave! We added a mellow “U” concave to give you more confidence when
sliding. The concave also helps lock your feet in when landing big spins and such. The concave is mellow
and does not feel uncomfortable for footwork moves.
Nose and Tail Kicks: More nose and tail curvatures allow for easier catching of the nose and tail. If you get
your timing down, yes you can ollie the Bhangra. Not easy, but it can be done. Both the nose and tail will
lock your feet in nicely for manuals, but the different lengths result in distinct feelings of balance and pop.
You may find riding the board in a certain direction better for some tricks; for example, the tail is really good
for catching shuvits-to-manuals, while the nose feels better for hang ten manuals.
