Muirskate.com Staff say that the Loaded dervish is the best selling longboard skateboard on the market today because of the innovative bamboo construction that conforms to your feet when performing deep carves and added control in your freeride slides. When performing dance maneuvers on the Dervish the "Pop" that the bamboo give you allows more control in keeping the Dervish at your feet.

Here's the Loaded Dervish with the new graphic! This all bamboo board feels alive under your feet!

And here's what Adam Colton has to say about the new graphic -

Flown in from outer space in our new eco friendly veggie spacecraft is the fresh NEW Dervish Graphic. Besides being flown in on a spacecraft we are happy to announce the new Dervish graphic was printed using a much more environmentally friendly printing technique which gives the print greater depth. We are excited to explore and build upon this technique more the future.

WOW, what a surprise! You probably did not see it coming and neither did we. Well, actually we saw it coming but wanted to keep it a surprise. If you look closely at the graphic it incorporates the same mystical vibe and some of the design elements from the old graphic but is much cleaner. The flowing lines running across the middle of the deck, hmmm what are those? Well, folks that right there is an elephant balancing on an umbrella. Do you see it? Actually it's the flowing gown of a Whirling Dervish spinning. Check out this video to see what I am talking about. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vnunfciSr7k

The Dervish with the new graphic is already available on many online stores and will be available on the Loaded Online store 3/30/09. If you want the old one you're gonna have to hunt it down because we don't have any left.

Thanks for your support,

Loaded Boards

The Loaded Dervish symmetrical nose and tail design gives the dervish a dancer type feel. Vertical Laminated Bamboo technology gives the Loaded Dervish a rebounding feel of flexibility like no other longboard in the industry.

With a lower center of gravity and a torsionally stiff design, the Dervishes are built to hold an edge and maximize energy return.
A drop-thru carver designed to work with most reverse kingpin geometry trucks and 70mm+ wheels. Has a small nose and tail for manual and shovit tricks.

Wheelbase: 33 inches

Epoxy and Tri-axle fiberglass sandwich a vert-lam Bamboo core, pressed into concave and convex cambers for liveliness, responsiveness and high energy potential.

The Dervish is available in two flexes:
Flex 1: 150 lb - 230 lbs Flex softens a bit after 1 year!
Flex 2: 75 lb - 165lbs Flex softens a bit after 1 year!

Keep in mind that a softer flex pattern will give you more control and tighter turns at a wide range of speeds, but tend to lose stability slightly at higher speeds. Stiffer flex means more energy potential and more stability at higher speeds, but will not be as forgiving and lively when cruising.

A drop-thru carver designed to work with most reverse kingpin geometry trucks (Randal R-II, Paris, Holey, Bear, Gullwing Charger and Tracker Fastrack) and 70mm+ wheels. Small nose and tail for manual and shovits.

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).
