  • 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!

Description

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).

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.

Reviews

"Land O’Lakes should be jealous of how butter Loaded Tangent is—ridiculously smooth and king of coasting. The board is also super responsive and totally nimble for wheels this size. The Paris V3 trucks, Orangatang Dad Bod wheels, and Loaded board composition come together for an all-day ride vibes and easy cruisin’. My 10-mile daily commute has become a total blast. Mahalo, Loaded Boards!"

Very high quality

"I got the Tanget bracket board has a basalt fiber layer in it almost like carbon fiber but volcanic rock to reduce vibrations and make it stronger/lighter i was skeptical ordered the board paris trucks o tang wheels definitely can feel the difference of road dampening and how stable it is and very easy to carry speed and carve/pump overall im addicted to this board to say the least couldnt recommend it more my first loaded board and wont be the last !!!"

My go-to board for cruising or distance.

"This was my first real board unless you consider the $70 Amazon special I started on. I have SEVERAL boards now but the Tangent is my go-to! It is a great board from cruising around town to covering miles and miles! I have the Paris/Dad Bod setup but I switch it out to surf skate on occasion. Smooooth riding thanks to the basalt layer inside and plenty of room on the platform. Super stable, low to the ground and did I mention room on the platform?? Great for everyone from beginners to advanced riders. Just get one and you’ll see what I mean!"

Excellent board for the right kind of rider

"This is by far the most fun I've ever had on a longboard. If you're looking for something fun with extremely responsive turning with the ability to pump once you're moving to maintain your speed - this should be your go to board! Pros: - Aggressive handling - Able to pump to maintain speed - Low ride height - Smooth riding with large wheels Now with that said, there are some cons: - Do not try to take this down a hill. Once you get going past normal pushing/cruising speed, this board will start to have speed wobbles really badly and you'll get thrown off. - when pushing, you gotta make sure your foot is in the exact right position before you push because of how responsive it is. - Because it's so long and the bracket is out in front, you can't truly "surfskate" - at least not from a standstill. You gotta be moving a bit - it feels like a highly responsive pumping board I highly highly recommend this board for the right use case. If you're not planning on hitting hills and if you want a board you can surfskate on (while moving) but also be able to push on (if you've got good balance) then I highly recommend this board to you."

BUY BOTH AND BE HAPPIER. !

"I received my BOARDS TODAY and just from how the box was packaged made me smile. You could easily see that this company cares about presentation and about their products, and about making their customers feel special and wanting their customers to be TOTALLY HAPPY UPON OPENING THE BOX. They get a MILLION STARS. ! When I took the BOARDS OUT(FATHOM and TANGENT) I literally had TWO FERRARI’s in my KITCHEN. UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE. ! The ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND BUILD QUALITY WAS SUPERB. LOADED put together the BEST OF THE BEST. From wheels to brackets and the DECK IS A WORK OF ART. ! LOADED is truly MASTERS OF THEIR CRAFT. These two boards are MICHELANGELO AND PICASSO. ! TRULY AWE INSPIRING. ! I was a believer in LOADED from the VANGUARD and they have reaffirmed and confirmed my belief in THIS COMPANY. ! THIS IS A ROCKSTAR COMPANY. AND IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR HARD EARNED OR EASY EARNED MONEY, spend it with the BEST. ! And ANYONE WHO IS INTERESTED IN BUYING THESE BOARDS JUST PRESS “PURCHASE NOW” and START SMILING."
