FP Skateboards

 

High performance handmade composite skateboards.

 

 

Are you sick of mass produced skateboards? Are you sick of the manufacturers claims of stiffness and lightness and when you get the board it weighs a ton and has uninspired saggy flex and the dreaded torsional flex?

 

 So were we, That’s why we have created the 2012 FP High Performance Skateboards range. Boards designed for serious riders who demand quality. These are not toys. Built first and foremost to perform.

 

 Since the dawn of time skateboard and longboard builders everywhere have been striving to build light stiff and durable boards. Many have tried and many have failed. Some have succeeded but at the expense of cost or durability, for example carbon fibre foam core boards.

 

 Here at FP Skateboards we believe we have found the winning formula of materials that provides this combination. Our boards are constructed with a mixture of materials that are exclusive to FP Skateboards. So exotic and amazing are these materials that we have to keep them a secret, ssshhh!

 

 What makes lightweight boards so awesome? They carry less momentum. This means they require less effort from the rider to break out, drift and manoeuvre. Response from the board is increased, requiring less rider input. Slides become easy and controllable, giving you the confidence to hit every corner at 110%.

Our website is under construction and will be up and running in the next few weeks.

 

 

 

 

 

The Royale.

 

The Royale is a full on DH racing topmount. The layup features twin carbon fibre stringers. These stringers combined with the other materials come together to create a board that is ultra stiff , extremely durable and very light. The Royale can be compared to carbon fibre foam core boards in terms of performance but comes without the hefty price tag. The ultra stiff racing flex provides stability and confidence at speed. Response from this board is instant and unrivalled. The generous tub concave is complimented with a mellow trapezoidal W that extends from the back trucks to just behind the front foot.

N.S.F.

 

Evolved from the Royale comes the N.S.F. a symmetrical topmount freeride board. It features a shorter wheelbase but the same generous tub concave, with the trapezoidal W running the length of the foot platform, so its there whenever you need it. We’ve also dialled in a bit of flex for the N.S.F, but it’s still extremely firm and responsive. Large routed wheel wells ensure zero wheelbite.  Mind bogglingly light.

Oh you bought a rayne....

Don't you hate it when you buy a board then you have to pay again to have it stiffened to what it should be in the first place.

Yeah I can fix that up for you. I'll send you a pm

Now available at CRE8IVE SK8!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey steve when you say youve dialled in a bit of flex for the N.S.F do you mean just dampening flex or a bit more? and is it possible to get one just as stiff as the royale?

The NSF is very very firm Anthony just not extremely uber stiff like the royale. Go and stand on one at the hopshop or now at CRE8IVE SK8 if your up that way.

You won't need it any stiffer or more responsive, its already right up there..

sweet, thanks man going up to hop tomorrow, i think they have stock in

hey steve, added the pics of ur board on a brazilian skateboard forum, just thought u should know people found them beautiful and sick and called u a true artist. :)

Thanks lucas!

hey steve, been in the market for a directional dh topmount, been really keen on your boards because they are quite obviously the shit!. tried both the N.S.F and the royale at hop and really liked them, especially the N.S.F, liked the full length W cave and the tapering in the middle, also something more compact and with a slightly shorter wheelbase than the royale is ideal, only thing is i would prefer something directional and having a bit more room to put your foot on the tail is always fun for messing about. i know you have done some degree of customization to boards before but not sure if you do modified board shapes, so i was wondering if you were willing, if it were possible and how much it would cost to get one end of the N.S.F cut to a square edge right after the truck holes similar to the royale tail as opposed to its normal pointed tail. thanks man, really stoked to hopefully own one of your beauties one day

Sounds exactly like you want our new top mount that will be out soon. Going through testing now...

awesome! will you be releasing any pics or specs soon?

hey steve just out of curiosity i was looking back on the forum and wondered will u be selling any more prototype's any time soon? like the one of u build testing things off. 

Not for a bit, got a few tweaks to do
