The unbelievable Magic Model was developed nearly thirty years ago and remains one of the most widely distributed and popular Longboards ever designed. When Steve designed the first board in 1981 it was deemed "Magic" by everyone that tried it and the legacy began.
From a distance the board looks fairly conventional but as soon as you grab the rail, you know this is not a conventional board! From the nose the rail is tucked and blends into a rail chine all the way back to a hard release off the tail. The concave on the bottom is set from single, to double combined with a generous vee that you can feel when you initiate a turn on these boards. These features are blended to create an acceleration and release that feels like no other design. And the Magic Model accelerates with only the slightest pump.
Remarkably stable, anyone can ride the Magic Model, from beginners in knee high dribblers to professional contestants in heavy conditions (and they do). One of the design features that allow this amazing versatility is the moderate template combined with a highly defined tucked rail chine. The board is stable, yet when you get on it, whether you are pumping down the line or jamming a cutback, the board will instantly respond. You've got to love it! Did we mention that it noserides incredibly? It's a one board quiver that does EVERYTHING well!
These Magic Models are built in the new durable X-2 epoxy construction. For 2011 we have also managed to reduce the weight of these boards to increase performance yet again.
With a thin wood veneer sandwich, the X-2 boards have the lively feeling and the durability to remain in your quiver for years. Feel good that the X-2 series was built with wood. It's a step forward for epoxy sandwich technology, performance and the environment.
