Longboarding produces high performance, long skateboards
for board sports enthusiasts. Handcrafted retro shapes and individually
painted in two color fades and striping, JAM creates visually
stunning longboards that perform unlike any other skateboard for
bombing downhills, cruising, and flatland freestyling. Five models
are available: 
- Silverback (80")
- Python (80")
- Tuna (60")
- Iguana "Carve Monster" (64")
- Piranha (42")

We created JAM Longboards to capture and reflect our combined
75 years of stoke about surfing, longboard surfing and skateboarding.
We envisioned boards that would be extremely impressive and uncommon,
would perform very well, mimic longboard surfing, and that people
would love to ride and look at. Our current models represent our
vision, and we think you'll agree they provide colossal distinction
and conspicuous benefits.
DECKS - The first
thing people notice about our boards is their size, shape and
design. At 80 inches they're stunning- plain and simple. Nobody
is producing anything close. Our Silverback, Tuna, and Iguana
shapes are patterned off traditional big wave gun longboards.
A classic shape not found on many longboards today. Our Python
(80") has styled curved lines pleasing to the eye. Sure, you can
find a few companies stamping out a token 60" board, but it's
not their forte. We specialise in longboards.
Our decks are very strong, perform at a high level, flex just
the right amount, and are good looking. We use premium quality
birch hardwood plywood with no filler or voids. On our Eighties
we integrate truck pads for complete deck strength. Decks are
cut digitally to achieve perfect dimensional precision, then hand
routed and hand painted. We don't piece together, machine heat
mold, clamp bend, or stamp out our decks. Not that there's anything
wrong with that- we just believe the least amount of fiddling,
the better.
PAINT DESIGN -
Every board is hand painted using materials and technique that
allows the wood grain to show through. Our nose-to-tail color
fades strengthens visual appeal. Also, the 80's retro striping
creates a truly unique and classic pattern for each board. Many
customers have described them as "works of art." This is unheard
of in the skateboard industry today.
WHEELS - We use
industry leading ABEC11 wheels and Kryptonics. We've tried them
all, and we think they're the best wheels for our boards.
TRUCKS - We use
Tracker Trucks. They are the original wide truck skateboard design
taking the age old rollerskate "between wheel-to-wheel" width
to the next dimension. They have the cleanest axel/pivot pin turning
radius in the industry. Where other skateboard trucks fail in
strength, they excel. We also use Original Super 10 Carving Truck
standard on the Iguana "Carve Monster", and can use it with our
other models, except the Piranha.
SPEED, STYLE, PERFORMANCE
- The combination of an 80" deck with ABEC11 wheels, and Tracker
219 Dart trucks is unbelievable. Just check out our customer comments
page. It's hard to describe, but it might be like riding on the
back of an Orca- extremely smooth, responsive, powerful, and as
fast as you want to go. For styling, anything you can do on a
longboard can be done on our skateboards. Cross step, noseride,
laybacks, drop knee turns, 180's, tandem, nose wheelies- you name
it. For pure speedboarding, our longboards are among the fastest,
and as more skating contests expand to accomodate events for longer
boards- Freestyle, Giant Slalom, Super G races- you'll see more
riders on JAM boards.
VISUAL IMPACT
- We don't need to tell anybody about the visual impact of our
boards. We just show them, and they drop trou. It's one of those
intangible things difficult to measure, but people stop, and heads
turn toward a JAM board. Maybe it's the retro striping and paint
job, or the big gun shape, or the sheer length. It becomes the
center of attention. People want to touch it, ride it, talk about
it, and own it.
More and more people are discovering JAM boards- the only production
boards of such specifications, dimension and design. If you've
been looking for a top-end, true longboard, then look no further.
You've come to the right place, and riding one is a dream! |
