A new longboard in the sector 9 cosmic series is the Mainland. The mainland is made from thin layers of maple wood sandwiched together with layers of fiber glass for strength and it also adds lots of flex for a surf style ride. The fiberglass layers in the sector 9 mainland create very smooth flowing turns in which you can pump in and out of to keep your momentum. The mainland is 38" long which is a mid sized longboard perfect for cruising the streets in style.
The sector 9 mainland longboard can be set up several different ways but we will recommend a few that are for the best performance in which you can get the most out of the board. A great performing truck at a low cost is the gullwing mission truck. The missions are smooth and can turn well for a standard skateboard truck. If you are looking for better turning ability for a little extra cost check out the gullwing charger, randal, or paris trucks, which are all down-hill or reverse kingpin trucks that allow for great turning ability.
The wheels that you will want to put on the mainland can be anything in 64mm-70mm in size. You really don't need anything to special on the mainland as far as wheels go as it truely is just a cruiser style board. And last is the bearings. A good smooth bearing that will spin fast for a great price are the bones reds bearings. The best thing about bones bearings is you can pop off the inside cover and clean them to allow them to last a long time.
