Pantheon’s LowTide Cruiser Complete

The Lowtide is a flexible kicktailed cruiser. Soft enough in the middle for comfort while pushing, with a stiff enough tail for pop tricks. Small micro drops in the body that are non intrusive but solid foot reference points. This deck is designed for TKP trucks, so we offer the LowTide Cruiser complete with our 149mm Stylus trucks and 66mm Sliders wheels. We’ll include the wedged risers on us. The wheel wells on this deck are designed for this specific setup and they’re nice and deep, so you’re going to get a lot of wheel clearance on this deck set up the way we build it.

Think of the LowTide vs the Fantail in a similar way to how one might compare a Pranayama to the Trip. You’re going to set the Lowtide up one specific way, and in a way, that makes the deck a little more restrictive when it comes to setups, but on the other hand, the deck is absolute perfection just as it is, and you wouldn’t want to change it. The Trip is more versatile with setup, and because you can put RKPs on it (as you can with the Fantail), it can be set up to be more stable at higher speeds. This is definitely an advantage for some people, but for most people, they’re going to enjoy the excitement that the TKP-setup brings, because it is more flowy and has a nice, loose center that many will find more thrilling, up to a point. The increased flex on the LowTide does make it less stable at higher speeds, but you’re going to really enjoy the carve, lower speed slides and speed checks, and the flow at the speeds that most people are going to ride a cruiser at. And of course, you can always reverse that rear wedged riser to deaden up the back end and make it a bit more stable at higher speeds. Don’t sleep on this deck. It is as good as it gets for this type of board. Exactly what you’ve come to expect from Pantheon.

  1. Ryan A (verified owner) –

    The caveat for this review is I live in NY and ordered the day it went for sale. Since then, there hasn’t been a ton of weather that’s been dry and above 30 at the same time or if it was I had 3 viruses in my house lol. But! The two rides I went on left me very happy and feeling like my exploration and quiver building has come to an end. I also learned when wanting to cobble a commuter deck together in November that there is great value in Jeff’s design vision and going for a complete. Again, I rediscovered love for skating by way of small loaded cruiser to basically chase my kids around. That quickly became my “thing”. Something that brings joy, allows me to tinker, and inspires me to get outside and move again. I primarily surfskate (or at least those are the skills I’m trying to improve) and I go for longer distance errands and commutes with the prana and I had wanted to get a different cruiser after learning a bunch and trial and error. The inevitable comparisons with the comet…5the internet convinced me that that’s what I was looking for and frankly I never bonded or felt comfortable with it. Cos of surf skate trucks it’s felt stiff and flex along with narrow width didn’t inspire confidence. And where I live is flat flat flat and it seems the most fun people had with the comet was with some topography. The LowRide answered a few things, width and deck feel, aesthetics that I can admire and, for better or worse, I’m more likely to grab something that looks cool as hell. I just had a quick run with using a pats risers plug and some softer bushings more in line with what I use on my surf skates and I’m so pleased. I can have some pump and get to better speeds, have more confidence/comfort with the flex due to the width and it’s nimble enough to pop up and change directions quick to go after another child on a scooter. I cannot wait to take this on the board walk for family bike/scooter rides. So yea, this isn’t an “in spite of” of better than comparison, simply a statement of it being better for me and my needs/circumstances.
    So do yourself a favor and grab one if you’re on the fence or in the market. If it’s good for a processing intermediate rider like id imagine someone with more skill would love it as well.
