Design
- The Swagtron 42” Longboard has a rather retro look, with ninety’s looking graffiti printed on the grip tape of the deck. The grip tape gives unbeatable traction, covering the deck which is made out of eight plies, six of the layers being Canadian Maple and the other two, bamboo wood. This 8-ply wood, gives the much-needed support for even the heftiest of riders, and thus the Swagtron is equipped to hold up to 330lbs. (150 kg)!
- The Swagtron is a true long board, almost being 42 x 9 x 6” which clearly means that it can be ridden by really tall users too! The board weights around 19.3 lbs. as a whole, with the carrying handle built in at the back side of the board. It also has adjustable trucks for clearer calibration and board flexibility.
- Large 90 mm polyurethane orange wheels are classic of Swagtron, these wheels go over just about anything, and can also be used on skating arenas to show off your crazy moves! One thing you’d automatically notice about the wheels is that they are thicker in the front- this has been specifically engineered for the board, to support hefty riders in smooth controlled movement while going downhill.
Power and Performance
- The 42” Voyager is certainly supplied with enough power to give the consumer a hill grade of 15 percent, with a maximum speed of 30 Mph! This is achieved even under the weight of 150 kg, due to the powerful dual 350W motors.
- Specifically made for speed, the Voyager is run by two, 36V LI-FE batteries, which are scientifically proven to be safer than standard Lithium Ion batteries. The batteries are 24 cells, and take around three hours to fully charge.
