Freebord decks are twin tip and full concave, made of 7-ply rock maple. The result is a stiff and strong board. Stiffness is important because it maintains the height relationship between the center wheels and the edge wheels. Freebord trucks are sold separately but with the recommendation that they only be mounted on decks with limited flex. Because of Freebord's ability to slide, the length of the deck is particularly important.
Longer decks are less maneuverable but more stable.
