Here at ATBshop we love the Dervish, it makes an awesome slide and carve board and thought we would share our favourite set-up with you!

Specs:

Loaded Dervish Deck (with choice of flex)
Orangatang FreeRide Durian Wheels - ready to slide "out of the box"
Paris Raw drop thru trucks x 2
Lush Knight Rider Bearings

And a set of Loaded Slide gloves (one size fits all)

With a lower centre of gravity and a torsionally stiff design, the Loaded Dervish Slide is built to hold an edge and maximize energy return.

The Loaded Dervish deck offers great flex and stability for varying types of riding, cruising, speed carving and sliding, combined with the low drop thru design of the Paris Trucks which offer an extremely smooth carvey ride. To get you sliding straight away we have chosen the Orangatang Durian Slide wheels which is what 90% of our local riders are using, these will slide from the moment you first hit the tarmac to save time wearing in wheels. They are also great for about town riding due to the size and softness the flatten out cracks or bumps on paths and roads - and because they work Lush Knightrider bearings.

Finally we have given you the choice of loosing a hand or maximising potential with a set of Loaded Slide gloves, these are a heavy duty, long lasting glove and we carry spares incase you do wearing the pucs out!

Deck Flex:
2: Wide 100 to 180+ lbs 45 to 82 Kg's
1: Wide 170 to 230+ lbs 77 to 105 Kg's

Drop-thru carver designed to work with 70mm +wheels and the most reverse kingpin geometry trucks which includes R-IIs, Holey’s, Paris, Bear, and a couple more that are still in development. Inspired by ancient Persian Islamic art, we've named this board the "Dervish" as a reference to the Whirling Dervishes. A sub-sect of Sufism (Mystical Islam), the Dervishes are famous for their ritual whirling dances, an aerobic flowing movement designed to produce spiritual ecstasy (and deep carves).

The Dervish also has a small nose and tail that allows you to bust out manuals, nose manuals, shovits and do all sorts of madness. Plenty of room to cross-step and dance to make the ladies or men swoon. This board is super easy to slide out because it is low to the ground and is very comfortable under your feet when going fast.
