Insect Dragonfly-36 inch Deck
This product is temporarily unavailable
In 2002, Insect began producing high performance, handcrafted, composite reinforced skateboards.
Founder and builder, Steve Hopper (pictured at left in work uniform), runs the operation from an extremely small, but incredibly sophisticated shop in Seattle.
This unassuming shop now houses a CNC system which will further broaden the horizons of what is possible in high-end skateboard construction. Insect is always working on new ideas to push the envelope and bring you the best performance skateboarding has to offer.
If it’s possible we’ll try it. If it’s viable, we’ll use it. If it survives the torture testing, they’ll make it available.
The original Insect deck! The Dragonfly was the culmination of over a year of design and extensive testing, resulting in an unparalled carving machine. Not quite a longboard, not quite a slalom board. It’s the “sweet spot” in between. The camber, concave and flex work in tandem allowing you to “load up” going into a turn and “snap” out of it into the next turn. That’s true of all Insect boards, but is particularly notable here. The flex and “bounce” perform in a similar way to snowboards. Perfect for deep downhill carving, cruising, and cross-training for winter.Dragonfly Specs:
