    Description

    The Tesseract family has expanded to cater to your unique quest for four-wheeled illumination. The Cantellated Tesseract integrates rocker, wheel well flares, W concave, and multiple wheelbase options into a lightweight package designed for big mountain roads, high speeds, snappy slides, lofty ollies, and techy manual combos. It sports a single tail kick to meet your ollie-popping, tick-tacking, and manual-balancing needs. The Cantellated Tesseract’s tail features a wider and fuller shape that promotes more frequent and emphatic use than its double-kick cousin. Escape the three-dimensional confines of contemporary skateboarding and embrace the fourth dimension.

    ROCKER
    Symmetrical rocker throughout the deck cups the outer edges of your feet and creates a subtle locked-in sensation, helping you stay firmly planted in slides and facilitating confident and natural movement up and down the length of the board. Additionally, rocker slightly lowers your center of gravity for enhanced stability.

    WHEEL WELL FLARES
    Flared wheel wells increase wheel clearance and also create surface transitions that provide lateral and longitudinal support for your feet, both inside the trucks and on the kicktail. These flares promote board awareness and keep your feet locked into a compound contoured pocket while sliding, cornering, and tucking.

    W CONCAVE
    The Tesseract family features an intuitive W concave to enhance rider control in all toeside maneuvers. The central hump is tall yet wide, providing strong lateral support near the transitions without compromising arch comfort. The W concave follows a mellow elliptical shape and fades gradually in amplitude approaching the trucks, disappearing 3/4″ behind the innermost mounting holes. This design allows the inside edges of your feet to nestle up against the W (for toeside slides) while also allowing the outside of your foot to rest in a more radial dish just behind the flared wheel wells (for comfort while tucking on long downhill runs). Progressive yet mild rail concave provides optimal edge control without sacrificing comfort.

    DIRECTIONAL SHAPE
    The Cantellated Tesseract sports a single tail kick to meet your ollie-popping, tick-tacking, and manual-balancing needs. The kick length — tuned for maximum functionality and pop in the original Tesseract — remains unchanged. However, the Cantellated Tesseract’s tail features a wider and fuller shape than its double-kick cousin. The width of the board stays consistent all the way up to the blunted nose for predictable leverage for slides and tricks anywhere on the board.

    VARIABLE WHEELBASE
    24.5″ and 26″ wheelbase options allow you to fine tune your setup based on your riding style and specific truck geometry. Move your axles in for quicker pop, increased agility, higher traction, and lower swing weight; move them out for greater stability and more lean.

    GRAPHICS
    When presented a cork canvas to work on, two distinct reference were evident. One was a grandparents’ mid-century cork lamp (strangely out of place in their Francophile home). Second, was an interest and training in the International (Swiss) Style. Given the complexity and diversity of the board, a pursuit of simplicity in the design was in order. A focus on a solid color field cube created interesting and organic looking opacity changes when printed on the cork. This play with natural textures against the contrived cubic print creates an emphasis on the craft of the board as a whole.

    WHEELS
    The Cantellated Tesseract’s powerful pop and lightweight construction pair best with a light and small wheel for freestyle and technical freeride enthusiasts. We ride Orangatang Fat Frees (65mm) or Keanus (66mm) to keep the ollies high and swing weight low. Scale up to a mid- to high-diameter wheel such as Orangatang Kilmers (69mm), Stimulus (70mm), Morongas (72.5mm), Cages (73mm), or Durians (75mm) for higher roll speed, smoother performance on rough pavement, and increased longevity.

    For downhill applications, the Cantellated Tesseract can accommodate up to an 80mm race wheel (such as the Orangatang Kegel). Be sure to fine tune your setup with the appropriate hardware (risers, bushings, washers) to provide the performance you’re after, and always check for wheelbite before you ride.

    CONSTRUCTION
    Two layers of custom fiberglass/epoxy skins sandwich two vertically-laminated bamboo cores to create a stiff yet light and damp structure. Laminated to the bottom of the board is a layer of cork which provides vibration damping and (as we learned to our surprise during testing) a significant level of durability. The granular, non-directional structure of the cork helps prevent abrasive damage from propagating (in contrast to a traditional wood or bamboo veneer with long, oriented fibers).

    The tessellated pattern in the cork is generated in 4-dimensional space and can only be fully understood if you lick it.
