Product Spotlight: Horizon XL Decks

The Horizon decks are back and bigger than ever!

Coming in at two separate widths, both 6.5” and 7” wide, These are the largest decks to hit the market! We’d love to say we created this deck for those who are rocking size 13 shoes, but in all reality we wanted to see how large of a deck scooter riders are really wanting to ride. 

With the larger of the two treading on skateboard deck sizes I think anyone who rides this deck would be hard pressed to miss a 50-50 grind. I’m sure some of you are thinking this new innovation might be too wide, but fear not, we created a unique footplate, with rounded edges to help with those tight turns and carves!

Due to the size, the new larger Horizon’s feature some extra material for added strength, but retain a lightweight profile, making the XL Horizon’s just as easy to whip around as their predecessors! 

In the testing process we sent one over to the tallest dude we know, and our favourite Jersey local, Jordan Tutt, here’s what he had to say about the Horizon reimagined: (EK - Ethan Kirk, JT - Jordan Tutt)


EK: What are your initial thoughts stepping onto the 7 wide? Were you surprised at all? Or exactly what you expected?

EK: Do you think 7” wide is the largest we should see scooter decks, or do you think the future of scootering has something larger in store?
