Pantheon – Tandava 2 Green 7-Ply – Deck
Pantheon Longboards – Tandava 2 Green 7-Ply – Dancing Deck
The Pantheon Tandava 2 is a mid-sized dancer longboard featuring clean lines, a comfortable platform and flex, and a flowing shape that assists in its durability. Slight revisions over the original Tandava have taken place in an effort to make the Tandava 2 just a touch more trick-friendly and a little easier on the wallet. Slightly longer and wider kicktails add just a bit more leverage and pop. New grip design features a grip=free center platform for easy dance steps and a little gnarlier grip toward the kicktails for better aerial maneuver control. The new Tandava features an all maple and fiberglass construction, placing the fiberglass directly underneath the top and bottom layers of maple. In comparison to the original, this significantly lowers the cost, because we got rid of that fancy (expensive) veneer, at no loss to its strength or functionality! We also gave the Tandava 2 flex options! You can choose between the 7-ply green and the 6-ply purple.
One thing many dancer longboards tend to suffer from is durability issues. Many expensive boards get beefed up around the rails at one of the “hot spots” around the deck, often near the wheel well. This is because designers are shaping the decks in such a way that the board has specific spots that it tends to land on over and over and over again–almost like a “swell-bow” on your arm just sticks out and just can’t help but to be landed on every time you go down. The Tandava 2 is a dancer longboard that was built from the ground up–now refined over time–with a mold that specifically works with the shape to avoid these hot spots, so that the board can wear more evenly over time. This functional design results in a longer lasting board for hard riders.
Combine our carefully shaped longboard dancing platform with a proven construction of fiberglass and Canadian maple, and you’ve got a strong, durable board that can take hits and keep on going. We put the maple on the outside of the deck so that as the board wears, you don’t end up with fiberglass shards in your hands–a common problem for dancer skaters doing hand tricks.
Definitely not to be overlooked, the Tandava 2 dancer features a very comfortable dancing platform with a low concave that ever-so-gradually increases toward the tip and tail until it reaches a bowl-shaped nose and tail kick. This kick is crazy comfortable for manuals and provides a killer board feel with kicking the board up and doing aerial maneuvers. Set this board up with some flowy 180mm, 50-degree trucks and lightweight wheels as we have here with the 180mm Paris trucks and Seismic Tantrum wheels, and then turn on some jams and let the music and this beautiful Tandava dancer longboard move you!

Powell Peralta Pro Andy Anderson Heron Rust 7-Ply Maple Skateboard Deck – 8.45 x 31.8
“There are so many within the skateboarding world who look at skating as a religion which must be practiced to exacting and specific standards; you must conform and ride this type of terrain, you must conform and do these types of tricks, you must not mix this style with that style, you must look this way or else etc. And then once in a while a skater like Andy comes along who doesn’t fit into this fanatical mold, a skater who is such an outsider himself that he doesn’t even fit into skateboarding. He doesn’t fit in because he’s not following it’s false mandates. What Andy is doing is living the creed of what a skateboarder is supposed to be. He’s not conforming nor is he looking for acceptance from conforming, and with that he’s accepting the grief and exclusion that comes with being a true outsider. That is what a real skateboarder is.” -Stacy Peralta

CALIFORNIA CLASSIC BY Jason Cruz (California)
I’ve always been attracted to the seedy side of life and, to this day, prefer to create pieces that feel a little edgy or dark. Classic rock, heavy metal, drugs and alcohol, street gangs, graffiti, bikers, and things like that have always been appealing to me. I grew up around tough kids and experienced a lot growing up; it’s all in my work if you read between the lines.

Pantheon – Mitch Thompson Pro Model – Deck
Pantheon Longboards – Mitch Thompson Pro Model – Deck
The Mitch Thompson Pro Model is here! This is a race-ready downhill skateboard that shreds just as hard out of the box as it does after modification. It is fairly low-concave with a spoon nose for ample board feel without being overbearing. This is a great board to shred just as is, or you can set it up to your liking as a near-blank canvas race deck.
SPECS
Length: 32.125″
Width: 8.45″ front bolts, 8.59″ back bolts, 9″ max width
Wheelbase: 20.125″ – 22.625″
CONCAVE
Featuring a bowl in the nose to amplify board feel in an otherwise mellow concave. This allows for increased leverage on the toeside, and the heel will still fall into comfortable concave, so that there is no discomfort if the rider is hanging the heel. You can be all over the front truck on this deck and still be very comfortable.
The rear features a W-concave that starts in the rear 1/3 of the deck and goes all the way through the back. Riders can use this deck with or without a foam wedge in the back comfortably. Using a wedge will form a toe pocket with the W concave for killer board feel and comfortable tucking and sliding with the wedge. Without the wedge, riders will have ample rail feel and use of the W concave.
CONSTRUCTION
8 ply maple core. Black dyed triaxial fiberglass top and bottom. Like all Pantheon boards in the current lineup, the entire board is laminated with waterproof resin. While the deck is not entirely waterproof, it is much more weatherproof and warp resistant than many other boards. Downhill stiffness out of the box.
CONCEPT
The Mitty Pro was conceived as an ideal board to satisfy downhill riders looking for a slim downhill setup with slalom trucks and fat wheels. GRIP CITY. Still plenty able to freeride, and while some riders are preferring decks like this for mashing big slides down mountains, it truly excels as a race deck. We have been prototyping this shape for nearly a year, and as we were honing in on the concept, bringing Mitch Thompson aboard the Pantheon team, it was clear Mitch would be an awesome outlet as a pro model for this concept. Upon working with Mitch, he was in love with the feel of the board, and we were in love with working with him! We nailed down and tuned the shape to his liking, and here it is in its final form!
SETUPS
Plan to ride the Mitty Pro with slim trucks and fat wheels. You could technically get close to rail matching on a 150mm truck and a slim freeride wheel, but most riders will likely want 130mm trucks or slimmer and a fat wheel like Mitty’s own Pro Model Wheel through 88WheelCo, Venom Magnums, or Seismic Alphas.
This board is equipped with flush mounting so that your trucks mount flat, but we minimize the depth of the cut so that we aren’t cutting away too much of the board and making it weak. Wheel wells are slightly asymmetrical to coincide with how most people will ride this board, with a high degree turning truck in front and a low degree stable truck in back.
When compared to the other pro model decks in the lineup, the Mitty has the most mellow concave and most freedom along the length of the deck. Great for those who are modification inclined, but also rides great out of the box! Just add grip!
A TRUE PRO MODEL
Not just a pro model in name only. Pantheon’s pro model decks have a profit share set up to help fuel this pro rider’s dreams. We don’t want to overstate ourselves. We are still a small company selling limited numbers of our pro model decks. But when you ride this pro’s model, you are literally taking part in supporting this skater’s life. Each one counts toward our goal of supporting these skaters we believe in.

Pantheon – Andy Atchison Pro Model – Deck
Pantheon Longboards – Andy Atchison Pro Model – Tortuga Deck
The Andy Atch Pro Model is here! If you remember the “Summit Series Tortuga,” consider this a more affordable but every bit as capable version of the same board. While many downhill racers are throwing torque blocks on their boards, the Andy Atch Pro sets you up with this excellent tucking mechanism within the design of the board.
SPECS
Length: 32″
Width: 8.5″ front bolts, 8.25″ back bolts, 9.125″ max width
Wheelbase: 20″ – 23″
CONCAVE
Featuring a bowl in the nose to amplify board feel in an otherwise medium concave. This allows for increased leverage on the toeside, and then the heel will fall into a supportive but comfortable concave. When compared to the Mitty Pro deck, you might consider the Andy Atch to be a bit more “surf style” and a little more aggressive in curvature. Riders will have their front foot land at around a 45 degree angle, and the ball of the rear foot will land on to the side of the W-bubble in back. The rest of the rear foot will fall into the tail wedge of the deck, where the W disappears and the tail comes up at an 8 degree angle. You can flat-foot tuck this board with ease.
CONSTRUCTION
8 ply maple core. Black dyed triaxial fiberglass top and bottom. Like all Pantheon boards in the current lineup, the entire board is laminated with waterproof resin. While the deck is not entirely waterproof, it is much more weatherproof and warp resistant than many other boards. Downhill stiffness out of the box.
CONCEPT
The Andy Atch Pro started out as the Seed deck until we decided to slim it down for Andy’s pro model “Tortuga.” This is the same board with an updated construction to make the deck significantly more affordable at no loss of riding prowess. Conceptually speaking, the deck features very sexy, smooth lines, and we wanted this board to just look awesome underfoot. The board’s technical elements really center around the rear foot interface. The concept of a wedged tail stems originally from slalom decks. This has been done before, but what’s totally fresh here is the W bubble that we placed into the tail crease. This is not only a wood-bending feat, but it’s also an incredible interface for board feel. The rest of the deck is an extension of this tail interface, providing 3 mounting options up front so that once you’ve set up the rear of the deck to your liking, you can place your front truck where your tuck falls into the concave.
SETUPS
Plan to ride the Andy Atch with slim trucks and fat wheels. You could technically get close to rail matching on a 150mm truck and a slim freeride wheel, but most riders will likely want 130mm trucks or slimmer and a fat wheel like Venom Magnums or Seismic Alphas.
This board is equipped with a 2 degree angled flush mount in the front, and the rear wedge will add an additional 8 degrees to your rear truck angle, so plan to use a wedged riser. We will include wedged risers for the Andy Atch Pro on us if purchasing through our website, but you can also find appropriate risers from sources like Pat’s Risers or Seismic’s wedge riser kit.
When compared to the other pro model decks in the lineup, the Andy Atch feels exceptionally comfortable but provides more board feel due to the curvature than the Mitty Pro, for example. While the Mitty is more of a blank canvas, the Andy Atch setup revolves around rear foot placement and then provides ample flexibility from there. When compared the the Chase Hiller, it feels a bit more mellow and “classic,” and although the Andy Atch features are complex curvatures, they sort of disappear into the shape rather than particularly stand out.
