Shape18

While most brands outsource the design and fabrication of their mold, thus choosing a board shape « by eye », we design and manufacture everything in-house.

Shape18 (the 18th iteration of our mold) was released after close to a year of development and prototyping in the quest for the perfect fingerboard shape.

 

Coming up with the perfect fingerboard shape is, of course, an ill-fated goal, as each person has different taste in the matter. Nonetheless, we created what we believe to be an extremely responsive board that will take your skills to the next level with a minimal time of adaptation.

 

S18 is the culmination of over 15 years of expert knowledge in fingerboarding. It features medium-high kicktails, a medium wheelbase, and medium concave.

Each of our boards is finely sanded and rounded by hand, not cutting any corners, instead using technology and innovation to achieve the most consistent results. We create our own tooling and come up with creative solutions to make every of the numerous steps of our fabrication process as efficient, precise, and reliable as possible.

 

 

December boards are handcrafted, technology-filled boards from the mind and hands of Joaquim Guigo-Méndez, long-time Blackriver-Ramps teamrider.
