THE DESTINATION IS IN ANY DIRECTION.

Easily ride longer distances, commute to work or class, or just enjoy our lowest and most stable double-drop bracket board for cruising at speed.

Metaphorically and physically expanding on the Fathom and the Zee Bracket system, the Loaded Tangent is here to welcome riders of all heights and sizes to the most comfortable ride of their lives. Innovative new basalt composite construction provides a longer and more stable bracket platform while staying light and durable. With its symmetrical shape, smooth chatter-free ride, and ergonomic platform, the Loaded Tangent is here to commute, traverse, and connect the dots (in whatever path you choose).

IT’S RIGHT FOR YOU IF…

  • You want a stable, comfortable, and utilitarian commuting board with a roomier platform for taller riders or wider stances.
  • You like the Fathom/Zee Bracket concept but want a longer platform and an even lower ride height for enhanced stability and effortless pushing and footbraking.
  • You appreciate having large wheels that coast forever and plow over bumps and cracks but also want an agile, responsive, and quick-turning board.

Looking for a shorter, even more agile bracket board? Check out the Fathom!

TWO SETUPS

Featuring Paris 150mm trucks and your choice of Orangatang 105mm Dad Bod (77a blue) or 85mm Caguama (80a orange) wheels. The Dad Bod setup carries massive momentum and can go over anything for cushy cruising. The Caguama setup is a fun, more nimble option, providing quick acceleration and a lower stance. Craving sharp turns around crowded city streets? Caguamas. Want maximum coasting and rollover power? Dad Bods. You can also grab an optional 43° baseplate to transform your Tangent into an even more stable directional setup.


GO FASTER, FURTHER

Explore the unexpected with speed and momentum. Sporting large wheels (up to 105mm) and responsive trucks, the Tangent is built to get you moving fast and to keep your speed. It’s a comfortable performance double-drop bracket board to explore the unexplored.

UNRIVALED CONTROL

The Tangent is easy to control even at high commuting speeds thanks to its lower ride height and rocker profile, which wedges the trucks slightly for tighter turning. The extra 3″ of board length makes it more stable and accommodates a larger audience. The mega-upturned/lifted corners provide a palpable reference point for foot positioning and to prevent foot bite. Don't turn your feet into street meat!


RELAXED ERGONOMICS

The rocker profile gives the rider a locked-in, secure, laid-back feel. The concave “tub” design is flat in the middle and slopes up towards the side rails of the deck, resulting in added comfort, responsiveness, and agility. Greater real estate provides the option to adjust your stance over longer distances and to alternate pushing between mongo and regular.

INNOVATIVE CONSTRUCTION

Maple and basalt composite construction provides lightweight durability while also ensuring a smooth ride thanks to a subtle, long-lasting damp flex. Coarser griptape at the ends relays tactile feedback for intuitive foot positioning.


GRAPHIC

Created by Nanastudio. Geometric shapes, arcs, and graphs diverge and flow into tangent lines. Value where you came from but chart your own path forward.

Built around the Zee Bracket

This proprietary composite bracket (designed exclusively for Loaded by our friends, the wizards at G/Bomb Skateboards) allows us to build unique and functional next-gen skate vehicles with double-drop (drop-through and drop-down) truck mounting.

Print your own tail nub

We designed an optional free 3D-printable nub that can be attached to the rear truck, allowing you to pop your board up. It can also allow you to balance your board vertically on end (depending on wheel choice).

The STL file is in millimeters. Print at 100% size. The centers of the holes should be 1.625″ or 41.275mm apart. We recommend a 100% infill for maximum strength.
