Intorducing the Zeppelin skateboard!

Arbor introduces a master carver known as the ZEPPELIN in collaboration with Gullwing Sidewinder trucks. The Sidewinder truck departs from conventional design in that it has two pivot points, allowing for more turn than any other truck available. Arbor Skateboards designed this board to be slightly narrower than the trucks themselves which allows for a deeper and smoother turning ride. If laying down hard surf style carves and turning 180 degrees within the width of a sidewalk is your thing, this is the board to roll out on.
