Top 5 GoldCoast Longboards Summer 2016

Top 5 GoldCoast Longboards Summer 2016

The meteorological start of summer may not be until mid-June, but summer starts for skaters as soon as the
weather is consistently nice. This means that now is the time to start thinking about your new longboard for
2016. You'll want to choose your board now while the selection is still good and you have time to have it
shipped right to your door.

GoldCoast has just what you're looking for all ready to go. Here are the top five GoldCoast longboards for
summer 2016:

Orbit Pintail Longboard

The Orbit Pintail is a Jolby-designed board and part of our Compadre Series. You will see how special this board
is at your very first look, noting its sleek lines and sexy color scheme. But let's get beyond mere looks, shall we?



This board is a 5-ply bamboo and maple hybrid with a medium flex that gives you just enough spring for those
less than smooth downhill runs. It also features our legendary GoldCoast VHS bearings along with 70 mm
Shred Boots Wheels and Century C80 Reverse Pivot Trucks. The setup on this board is pretty close to perfection
any way you look at it.

Origin Pintail Longboard

Also from our Compadre Series, the Origin Pintail Longboard hearkens back to the early days of longboarding
in Hawaii and Southern California. The Origin starts with five plies of bamboo and maple painstakingly crafted
to provide a medium flex without sacrificing stability or speed. We fitted the board with 86A barrel bushings,
our own VHS bearings, and the 70 mm Shred Boot Wheels and Century C80 Reverse Pivot Trucks we love so
much.



Even if you weren't taking this longboard on your favorite epic run, you would still appreciate it as a work of
art. The graphics feature a variety of retro symbols including ocean waves, rolling hills, and creatures from the
sea. It all blends beautifully with a wonderful color scheme that typifies the laid-back style of the longboarder.

Infinitas Drop Through Longboard

Our best 8-ply Canadian maple longboard for this year is far and away the Infinitas Drop Through. It has the
longest wheelbase of all our drop through boards – at 31.75 inches – giving you more control when you need it
most. It also features the C80 Reverse Pivot Trucks and 70 mm Shred Boot Wheels as well.



Visually, this board offers a sleek and modern design combining elegant gray stain and beautiful cyan stripes on
the walls. Orange stain on the top is accented by the die cut grip tape perfectly placed to accentuate both the
shape and color contrast. You will look sharp on this board while you're hitting your best tricks.

Classic Bamboo Drop Through Longboard

We could not talk about the best longboards for 2016 without mentioning the Classic Bamboo Drop Through
Longboard. This board is all about simplicity, as evidenced by the beautiful bamboo and maple hybrid deck
featuring the elegant GoldCoast logo. If nothing else, this 38-inch board with Century 177 mm Reverse Pivot
Trucks and our own ABEC 7 bearings combines beauty and quickness.



You will have no trouble riding this 5-ply classic down your favorite hill at top speed. You will enjoy remarkable
control along with the clean and smooth ride our longboards are known for. If there is one board you
absolutely must add to your collection, it is the Classic. It represents everything longboarding is supposed to
be.



Field Drop Through Longboard

Who says you can't combine eclectic style with exceptional performance in a longboard? Certainly not the
team at GoldCoast. The Field Drop Through Longboard proves it. This unusual board combines the intriguing
shape of an elegant yacht with nautical themed graphics and a presentation only GoldCoast could pull off. And
in case you're wondering, the graphics on this board are not random. They are symbols used for
communication within the maritime industry.



From a mechanical standpoint, the Field Drop Through is just what you'd expect from one of our best boards.
It offers a 27.5-inch wheelbase, 7-ply Canadian maple deck, GoldCoast Rolliroid Bearings, 86A Barreled
Bushings, and more. This board was built to take curves tightly and downhill runs quickly. And you'll do it all in
style.
