All our decks are tested in the laboratory. These tests ensure that all European standards for skateboard/longboard decks are met. Wear tests are also carried out.
These laboratory tests are complemented by field tests, some measured, others relying on user perception, to put the product through the most stringent tests.
The result: a thoroughly tested and proven product.
