Zeppelin Aero Works Strausberg STX

The Strausberg STX is our little  surf-skate. Inspired by 1960's-style sidewalk surfing, it's a little bit bigger and a little more sensibly contoured than a traditional polarizer, making it a lot more stable and comfortable for the bigfoots and the adults of the world. We've also dispensed with that annoying, drooping nose and tail, replacing them with a straight-through, rockered concave that, when flipped over, becomes a bi-directional camber; in both cases, the nose and tail are fairly flat, giving a little bit of extra functionality. Set up in concave mode, this board can be comfortably taken into transitions and ditches; set up convex, it becomes a snappy and responsive carving machine. This board also works as an entry-level slalom deck. Because this deck can be ridden either way, we printed both sides of it so that it'll look great no matter which way you decide to ride it! Made in America, and darn proud of it. Dimensions are as follows:


Dimensions:

Width: 8.25"
Length: 31.25"
Nose: 3.375"
Tail: 4.50"
Wheelbase: 19.00"


Concave: A gently rockered, straight-through concave that, when flipped upside down, becomes a biaxial camber. Board is printed on both sides, top and bottom, and can be ridden either way.


Recommended setup:

This deck was designed around Bennett 4.3 trucks and can run any small, narrow truck, such as Ace oos, Tracker Dart Midtracks, Tracker Dart Fultracks, Bear Polar Bear 105s, Bullet 6.9s, Paris 108s, and Independent 109s, along with any soft, offset bearing cruiser/longboard wheel. Short riser pads (1/8" to 1/4") recommended when riding it upside down, i.e., in camber mode.
