IT'S RIGHT FOR YOU IF…
  • You already have (or have strong opinions about) your trucks, wheels, and bearings, and want to build your Fathom from the deck up.
  • You want the Strata's layered construction: a water-resistant, 3D-textured thermoplastic base bonded beneath the 8-ply maple for extra strength.
  • You're after the proven all-maple build and original graphic: that's the Drift.
  • You're refreshing an existing Fathom build and want fresh wood (and a fresh graphic) under your feet.

Description

The same Fathom platform that anchors our completes, ready for your components, in both flavors. Every Fathom deck features 8-ply maple construction, slight camber for road-smoothing suspension, and lifted corners (plus more aggressive grip tape) to lock in your feet. The Strata bonds a 3D-textured thermoplastic base layer beneath the maple, adding strength to the layup and sealing it against water; the Drift keeps the proven all-maple build and the original graphic.

The included Zee Brackets take the stress of the double-drop off the wood, drop your ride height for easy pushing and footbraking, and clear massive wheels. We’re partial to Orangatang 105mm Dad Bods for maximum rollover or 90mm Bee's Knees for a snappier, lower ride. Truck size follows wheel choice. For wider offset wheels like Dad Bods, we recommend 150mm reverse kingpin (RKP) trucks. For narrower centerset wheels like Bee's Knees, size up to 165mm hangers. In both cases, Paris V3 are an excellent option.

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. Up to 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.

BUILD YOUR FATHOM

Equip your Fathom Strata or Drift deck (Zee Brackets included) with your choice of trucks, wheels, and bushings to dial in exactly the ride you're after. However you spec it, it's still a Fathom: low, huge-wheeled, and absurdly easy to ride.

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."
