TRAMPA's Original 9-69 35° Short Mountainboard deck is the perfect deck option for "Advancing teenagers" & "Intermediate adult" sized riders. Being shorter in overall length, its excellent for big airs, fast rotations & any types of freestyle use but can of course also be ridden down a track or basic Grassy slopes..... The 35° tip means it needs to be fitted to spring trucks. Spring Trucks are much more robust than Skate Trucks. Spring Trucks also offer a lot more custom adjustment, resulting in more stability to the rider, especially when compared to the 15° deck with Skate Trucks. Its dimensions make it excellent for all sizes of rider from youngster to adult starter. It can be used for Mountain Boarding or Kite Boarding.  Its often purchased as a Blank deck or as an Up-Grade to replace a broken or non responsive wooden deck supplied by other brands & will also fit to Scrub channel & MBS Matrix Trucks.

The Original 35° Short is available in 4 different flex rates, 12ply is the most flexible, 15ply is the stiffest. Please use the FLEXOMETER in the TAB ABOVE for guidance as to which is the most suitable ply deck for you or mail this link if you need some extra guidance. The 35° Short is supplied as Drilled, Edged, Sanded with Grip-Tape & of course with a complete deck Marine Grade Stainless Steel Bolt Kit!

How are they made?

The TRAMPA™ deck is made from a re-enforced glass and plastic thermo composite. Chosen because it gives a superior strength-to-weight ratio, whilst (unlike carbon fibre) remaining flexible. It is able to withstand huge impacts, forces and flex's that would shatter other materials.

Specially formulated, and presented in a thread like format, just like cotton. From there, it’s woven to our desired width, and placed it onto a roll. Pre-shaped, polished-aluminium moulds are used to give the material the dimensions and surface quality we require – this is where we vary the layer quantity of the composite in the mould, & control the amount of flex and pop in the resulting deck, giving us our Ply Ratings.

A special seal is used to create a high-pressured vacuum, then mould is then placed in a special oven to cook for about 2 hours. As the air is sucked out, the heated material becomes fluid – then at the crucial moment heating is turned off and the moulds are cooled, resulting in one solid piece! The decks are then cut out using a high-pressure water-cutter, resulting in a razor sharp finish to the edge of the deck.

The decks are then finished by hand. The binding and grab handle fixing holes are measured and drilled by hand, Metal files are used to take away the sharp edge of the deck and they are then rubbed smooth with a block and various grades of sandpaper.
