Sector 9 Carbonite Longboard


Sector 9 Carbonite Longboard Complete

This year sector 9 came out with there first ever drop through top mounted carbon fiber longboard. Very similar to the 9-star or sunset drop through boards except it has the nice smooth flex from the carbon fiber layers which also makes the board extra light weight. The sector 9 carbonite is the most tech, high performance longboard sector nine has made to date. It is 41" long and 9.25" wide which creates a smooth ride, smooth turns, and amazing feel. The flex allows for a nice pump in and out of turns so you don't even need to push. The carbonites low center of gravity also makes it super stable.

The sector 9 carbonite longboard is the porsche of the longboard world. It is sleek, light, fast, and manuverable. If you're going to spring for the carbonite make sure to set it up with the correct components. It needs gullwing charger trucks or similar like the paris 180mm trucks. I would set it up with 69mm, 72mm, or 74mm sector 9 wheels as they all have a nice wide surface area for extra grip to allow for nice smooth hard carving turns. The bearings can be just a simple abec 5 or similar if you aren't too hard core of a rider. But if you want the ultimate set up use the sector 9 race bearings.
