Description

Meet the Loaded Fathom.

The Fathom is one of the easiest boards to ride in the world and a ton of fun. Built around the revolutionary Loaded Zee Bracket truck mounting system, with large wheels and a low ride height, the Fathom is our answer to the daily commute (and the long way home).

With 105mm of Orangatang urethane underfoot and a double-drop platform slung low over the pavement, the Fathom bridges the gap between board and bike. It reaches and sustains true commuting speeds, rolls over bumps and cracks that would stop a conventional skateboard cold, and still carves through crowds like a much smaller board.

This is the Fathom at maximum momentum: 105mm Dad Bods on Paris V3 150mm trucks, in your choice of two decks. The new Fathom Strata debuts our layered construction, bonding a water-resistant, 3D-textured thermoplastic base to the 8-ply maple. The Fathom Drift (the original graphic, sporting a new name) keeps the proven all-maple build. Whichever you choose, you get the same low ride height, the same huge wheels, and the same grins per mile. The last mile, or every mile: the Fathom has you covered.

COMMUTE-PROOF CONSTRUCTION

Every Fathom features 8-ply maple construction, slight camber for road-smoothing suspension, and lifted corners (with more aggressive grip tape) to lock in your feet. The Strata takes it further: a 3D-textured thermoplastic base bonded to the bottom of the deck adds strength to the layup and shields the maple from water, and a full dip seals the edges and rails for good measure, so your commute doesn't need to check the forecast. And it's large enough for comfort but compact enough to carry on the train and stow under your desk.

GO FASTER, FURTHER

The Fathom is built for speed and momentum. 105mm of Orangatang urethane keeps you rolling at true commuting speeds, faster than a conventional skateboard wants to go, and holds that pace with far fewer pushes. Get a good workout, explore the roads less traveled, or get to class/work without breaking a sweat. It’s up to you.

UNRIVALED CONTROL

Stable and easy to control, even at high commuting speeds. The low ride height makes pushing and footbraking effortless, the wide deck gives your feet a forgiving, stable platform, and upturned corners keep them out of the wheels. Don't turn your feet into street meat!

BIG WHEELS, TIGHT TURNS

A wooden double-drop with the curvature to clear 105mm wheels is practically impossible to build, so we developed the Zee Bracket in partnership with G-bomb: it takes the drop's stress off the maple layup, letting us shape huge wheel flares right into the platform. Double-drop Zee Brackets and relatively narrow trucks make this board surprisingly responsive and agile. Slalom through pedestrians, snake down alleys, carve the whole lane. A board with wheels this size has no right to turn this well.

DAD BODS DO THE WORK

Orangatang’s 105mm Dad Bods are the biggest wheels we put underfoot, and they earn every millimeter. They coast forever, plow over bumps, cracks, and curb cuts without blinking, and pair with 150mm Paris V3 hangers so the board still turns like something much smaller. 77a blue is the default for grip and roll speed; the Drift also comes in 80a orange. If your commute has more pavement than patience, this is your setup.

Fathom: More Like Phantom

"This setup hits different in person. The deck art is on another level. I immediately rolled to the hardware store to give the trucks a custom enamel finish. It’s incredibly planted for a surfskate, providing a rock-solid commute while still letting you pump and carve with ease. I’m still chasing that deep, dramatic dive of a C7, but this build is undeniable. The Icarus was the gold standard for a long time, but the Fathom just took the crown. The Build: • Deck: Loaded Fathom • Wheels: Orangatang Kegel (80mm) • Trucks: Carver CX Front / C2 Rear • Hardware: Loaded Zee Brackets Clean, stable, and looks lethal."

Sick ride

"These boards are extremely fast. So fast I actually tore my knee and broke a piece of bone out of my femur. Other than that these boards are smooth and awesome to ride. I have the Starship edition and its design is pretty sweet. Whenever I heal I can't wait to take it to Colorado to give it a spin."

Q&A

Hi, did the board allows carving? Pumping ?
A joy to carve. Wider S-carves with the larger 105mm Dad Bod, and tighter with the 85mm Caguama. For a more efficient pumping set-up you would want to make the board directional and use a 43* baseplate on the rear.
I think this is the solution I've been looking for!! I'd like to travel longterm with this board. It hits the sweet spot with size and weight for being in medium-sized luggage, mostly because of the awesome truck design. About every 3-4 weeks, I get on a plane, so every 3-4 weeks, I'll be taking the trucks off. Deck goes in the check-in, trucks go in the backpack. Do you see any issues with this? Do you predict wear n tear on the trucks/screws/screw holes? Thanks!
Awesome, glad you're stoked on the system. The only issue are the locknuts that contain nylon inserts to prevent the nut from vibrating loose. After about four or five removals the nylon will fray. Fortunately any 10-32 size locknut will work as a replacement and they are only a few cents each.
Can you slide on the Fhatom? With a set of different wheels of course, what would you recommend for a freeride set up? I love the design of the board but really want to slide
It is difficult to learn to slide on the Fathom, but experienced riders certainly can. And yes, your choice of wheel is important. Harder, (to slide), with the sharp lipped 105mm Dad Bod, easier with the bevel lipped 85mm Caguama, and easiest with the rounded edge, less offset 75mm Durian. Using wheels smaller than 75mm would mean there is a danger of the deck contacting the ground, since it is such a low profile.
Rider weight of 215lbs ok for the Fathom?
Ideal weight! Both the deck and bracket system are designed for 250 lb, (113 kg) during normal use which includes some pumping. Riders 250-300 lb (136 kg) should minimize pumping to avoid stress.
How do you think this board would fare for mild downhill use? Speed wobbles? Can't tell from the vid whether the board is stiff or flexy. (Looks flexy) Also, does this weigh more than the Omakase?
Short answer is that it's not designed as a downhill, but if you are a competent skater very stiff double barrel bushings, (ours are too high rebound), would be best over 20mph. Consider your trucks. Aera feel great with your foot behind the bolts. Rogue feel better with your foot over the truck. Contact us at dontwalk@loadedboards.com if you want us to get really geeky!
