G6 Series, freeboards for park.

2009 opened with Gravitis carbon arms for freeboard trucks, 2010 as much conservative as much innovative, with microcasters, lowered baseplates, precision axles. These to become valid solutions in downhill and cruising: Freeboarding is finally strictly related to skateboarding. Not only, by featuring a ride 3 centimetres close to ground, Freeboard reaches the highest similarity to snowboard today: grab the deck while the other edge cuts the snow, but it's tarmac. Drop on nose/tail over coping as on your snowboard. The caster bolt is a kingpin, and not free to turn, the decks change shape, the boards light.

Gravitis will represent on related IGSA events this year, to be protagonist in water and snow in 2011. So, go tru the Gear, watch what the top Riders choose, buy online on GR affiliated stores or search below for International distributors.

Freeboard

Gravitis complete boards have decks with mellow nose & tail to give riders the possibility to drop coping like snowboards on the lip. This thanks to the very compact size of trucks, which measure half of freeride ones.

The proprietary G6 trucks design, is the first committed to freestyle and three centimetres lower than other brands, for a whole control and simulating snowboards by balancing on edges better than others1.

Speedboard

This year's longskates trucks show the brand new G6 Series freeboard design, and maintain the proprietary G51 double kingpin inclination, to split and un/wedge as wanted or required.

The robust baseplates show the same G6 drop-in mount for kingpin, a M10 fast tight tread. The longboard G6 trucks turn smooth even if with classic geometry, because of its minimalistic accurate hanger/pivot design. The new geometry features the lowest (3cm) and most direct turning axle ever.

Lugeboard

Gravitis has brought camber to skateboarding. This is a mandatory parameter to setup in downhill competitions, like is in car racing.

As much important as common setup now, to consider on each track type and to mount the required camber axles: eg. -4 degrees axle1 to the front and -2 to the rear truck on a fast track.

1. Gravitis brought a precise and limited series of axles (camber -4,-2,0,+2,+4), which are easy to manage on their PPG colors: metal for camber zero, red for camber positive, black for camber negative.

Towboard

Gravitis has showed up with tow.:er at the Italian Skimboard/snowboard fairs in 2009.

Gravitis is currently showing the new handles/cables in Alps and Dolomiti winter events.
