Lush Kilima Longboard
Be the first to review this product
Quick Overview
This is the F-16 fighter jet of the longboard world - stunning appearance and seriously fast. A classic part of the Lush range for years, this latest Kilima has a lot of riding and shaping experiance behind it.
We've updated the construction to a maple/bamboo composite - this year's board is stronger, a little stiffer, but retains the sexy bamboo looks of it's predecessor. It's also a little wider at the shoulders that last year's model, giving you a bit more room up front when you want to go fast and locking your foot in for slides and hard carves.

This board is not just about speed though. It fits the bill as a classic longboard. Simply rolling down the street on it is an experience and the long wheelbase hides the fact that it turns and carves extremely well. The lowered ride height means that pushing and foot braking are more stable and comfortable, making it a good choice for long commutes or day long skate sessions.
Why Bamboo?Bamboo is fast becoming an alternative to Maple as the wood of choice for making skateboards. It’s stronger and lighter and maple, and it grows stupidly fast so it’s much better for the environment.
Why drop through? A board built with trucks mounted through the deck as opposed to on the bottom of the deck sits about 2cm lower. This gives you a lower centre of gravity, and also means that the deck pivots around the centre of the truck pivot axis, which is much more stable. The trucks remain as turny as they would be mounted underneath the board, but you can ride way faster without getting speed wobble. It's an incredible ride. If you've not tried drop through, you need to give it a go. Some people don't like the look, but on a pintail where you don't stand above the trucks it's a winner every time.
