Rad-Air Limited Edition Silver Tanker 200 - 2010

/images/brands/rad-air/logo/rad-air_logo.gif

In the words of Rad Air owner and freeride legend Harry Gunz - “The tankers are super surfy, they’ll remind you of the old days when all boards had rocker or convex bases. The feel is like you’re riding a longboard in a smooth wave.” The Limited Edition Silver Tanker has all the technology of the standard Tanker, like the surf inspired RR Rocker, Aramid Stringers to get rid of any unwanted chatter and a super fast sintered base to make freeriding even more effortless. With the Silver Tanker the guys at Rad Air have lengthened the Tanker to a huge 200cm with a 12.45m sidecut and thrown in a slick Aluminium topsheet, the board to topple the mighty Lib Tech Doughboy from it’s thrown as the King of big-mountain longboarding!

Manufacturer's Description:

Exiled from the cosmos we are the prophets of powder, the heralds of a new technology, surfing the earth endlessly for single lines of untracked powder and virgin descents. Limited Edition Silver Tanker 200’s unique cambered base offers effortless glide and frozen hydrodynamic power in the deepest freeride conditions.

Turning tradition on its head by embedding two decades of free riding technology into base templates delivers yet another industry first – Rad Air’s entire free ride collection has binned the outdated camber concept and has redesigned a base rocker that delivers unprecedented powder flow and precision edge control. 

RAD AIR is the only company in the World that offers a full six board quiver, ranging from 167cm through to 200cm. The entire 09-10 Rad Air Tanker Collection, including its Limited Edition 200 Silver Tanker, is designed with Convex ‘RR Rocker’ Camber!

The unique base profile is the ultimate form of power transmission and functions in a similar way as the ergonomic shape of a dolphin, a Surfboard or a speed boat. The results are flawless precision forward motion, reduced friction and unprecedented edge to edge flow.  Rad Air’s exclusive ‘RR Rocker’ Convex Camber Base Technology will change your experience of Snow surfing forever.

RAD AIR is designed and endorsed by Pros and Legends in freeriding including: Xtreme Freeride Champion Flo Orley, “Chinese Downhill” Champion Ralph Castelberg and Legend Freeriders Shawn Farmer and Dani Kiwi Meier.
