I got very excited during this video!! Awesome!!
Yay! Thanks Jibby!
This is perfect, can't wait to get it for a ride!
What a video!😂.
Awesome and informative! And pretty funny haha. Thank yall
It bounces on the tip!
It just came in! A thing of beauty and power. I am about to assemble it. Quick question - in the complete the trucks come with speed rings, but the bearings are Jehu 2. Do I put the speed rings on, or take them out? Sorry for a noob question, but a total beginner here %)). Cheers.
Jehu V2 bearings actually don't require speed rings! We still use them from time to time to adjust the spacing of wheels though. Like if we wanted to push our wheels out a little further, essentially making the trucks feel wider, we would add the speed rings on the inside but none on the outside.
Can you put stimulus wheels on this?
yo you guys gonna do more with loaded x unlimited stuff?
I like the smaller size, but fibreglass... what happened to the amazing basalt fabric :(
We are currently experimenting with other forms of Basalt weaves to use in our boards because it is a material we thoroughly enjoy adding to our constructions. We have yet to definitively find the next version of Basalt we want to use, so we opted for fiberglass for the time being since it provided the most pop for such a freestyle oriented board.
I just bought this one and I'm a beginner. Any tips or recommendations to get me started?
Hey that's awesome! We usually recommend for people to be ready to loosen or tighten their trucks when they get a new setup. Trucks and bushings are rarely tuned perfectly to your liking, so experimenting is the best way to find out what suits you best.
With so many wheelbase options, we also recommend experimenting with changing your trucks placement until you find what you like the most. Our completes come set up on the middle wheelbase for optimum balance between freestyle and dancing. But maybe you're tall, so the longer wheelbase will work better for you? Or maybe you like to pop ollies and tricks on the fly, so the shorter wheelbase would be the better option!
I feel like I shouldn'T be able to see this yet? Did I somehow stumble into an unlisted video before the presentation? Don't worry I won't spoil it for the rest of the fans
PS looks great so far!
Kinda regret getting my coyote(it came today!) now because I don't know what you will release now
This was all part of the plan…
I feel yah Chloé! I just got an Icarus a month or two ago and now I wish I would've waited for this Beauty 😭 don't regret a thing though
Is this intended to be the updated version of the Tarab? Or will another dancer be released Fall/Winter 2021 as stated on the Tarabs webpage? Sick board either way though!
This is NOT a replacement for the Tarab. The Mata Hari fills the gap between the Tesseract and the Tarab though. It offer much more space for dancing than the Tesseract, but is much easier to freestyle with compared to the Tarab. The multiple wheelbase options also allow you to pick out the best feel for your riding style.
The Mata Hari also works exceptionally well for shorter riders who want to dance!
What's the weight limit for the board I'm on the heavy side and if I buy it I don't want to find out that I'm heavier then the max load for the board and it breaks while I'm trying to practice doing the peter pan or side stepping
BRING BACK THE DANCER PLEASE!!!!!
Got a flex 2 dancer deck with light wear I’d be willing to part with. Lmk if you are interested.
"I need to call my mom" 😂
We should all call our moms!
nice kick tail angle.
Am about to order one....and slap some gullwing sidewinders on it and see how it goes...
Lol
Can I have this In india 🤩
Amazing
Do they ship to the UK?
With current rule changes and regulations, we can no longer ship to the UK. We do have a distributor in the UK that supplies Loaded Boards to local skate shops though! One of the more famous shops they provide to is Newton's Shred!
@@LoadedBoards thank you so much I've been looking all day😅
@@laurynparker1870 Sorry for the long search! Had to do some research on our end as well!
We were just informed that our UK distributor won't be receiving Mata Hari's for another month due to shipping times.
However you can find one nearby from SickBoards.com, they will ship from the EU so it might be much faster!
This deck kinda seems like a step down from the tarab in every way, is that just me?
You know, I thought so too when I first saw it, but it's been my go-to for months now! It pops and flexes very differently from the Tarab, but this is not a bad thing. The Mata Hari makes freestyle tricks lighter and more stable, and the short wheelbase provides a faster cadence than the Tarab when dancing. I personally love it.
Mark is pretty dirty!🤣
We tried to keep him clean, but he kept on rolling in the dirt like a Chinchilla!
@@LoadedBoards 😂😂
I’m a little bummed it’s a stiff flex!
We chose a stiffer flex to make it better suited for harder landings from heavy freestyle tricks. But by simply changing the wheelbase, you can add a significant amount of flex to your ride if that's what you prefer!
Just in case, im winning the Tarab II
Hagan mejor que duren sus tablas en vez de sacar una cada 6 meses los kicktails y en general su madera se desgasta rápido, tengo una tesserac que compré hace 6 años y en 8 meses ya no tenia kicktails, 👎🏼 y tampoco es como que tenga patrocinio por parte de ustedes para tener una nueva deck cada cierto tiempo, aparte de que en Mexico sus precios están por las nubes.
Yo hablo espanol tambien, muy bien para mi
It feels like this deck is just the result of manufacturing issues to be honest… I’ve been a loaded fan boy for years, but this is pretty underwhelming.
