Sector 9 longboards have an impeccable reputation. The Ala Moana bamboo longboard is a particularly popular model – and for good reason. The longboard has gullwing sidewinder trucks that handle sharp turns incredibly well.
Other standout features its unique design for hard carving slalom style riding. A short wheelbase makes these Sector 9 longboards maneuverable. Add Sector 9 69mm or 72mm wheels for optimal performance.

Sector 9 Super Shaka Longboard Review
The Sector 9 Super shaka longboard is the perfect downhill/cruising board for any expereience range. The super shaka is cut specifically so that you don’t have to worry about wheelbite unless your foot is hanging over the side and scraping your shoe. Another really great thing about the super shaka is the long wheelbase, it’s as long as ANY longboard will ever get, this will give you the maximum stability you can get as well as the cleanest feeling you could possibly get from this type of longboard. I recommend the Super Shaka to anyone that takes long commutes or is really into doing downhill.
The Super shaka is perfect with san clemente trucks and wheels however the deck itself isn’t making it our most popular board. For wheels I definitely recommend sector 9′s or orangatang. For trucks I recommend getting gullwing chargers, or bombers. The Super shaka also comes with abec 5 bearings that would be much better replaced with some bones reds or if you have the money some sector 9 ceramics, they’re definitely worth it.

Sector 9 J-Bay longboard
The Sector 9 J-bay longboard is a great board whether you're looking for a carver, cruiser, light bombing, or light sliding board. I've found the J-bay to be super comfortable on those long treks across towns, it's actually my friends board but he let me test it out for a couple of days. The mild "W" shaped concave conformed nicely to my feet and kept my feet locked in without the feeling of discomfort that I've found some harsh "W" concaves to give. The board also has a slight camber and is decently flexible for pumping through town and that surfy feel that a lot of flexible boards give.
One of the greastest things about the J-bay is the Bamboo, which not only looks sweet in my opinion but is great for the environment and is actually quite durable, in fact, could even be more durable than most wood. My friend has had this board for quite some time, and it still hasn't given into that sagging or dead feel that flexible boards especially can give into. He's riding this setup with Gullwing Chargers, Sector 9 wheels, and reds bearings, however if you plan to use it for cruising and carving exclusively I would suggest trying out some gullwing sidewinders, but the chargers are excellent and even though the board isn't strongly suited for downhill boarding we were riding it down our favorite hill yesterday at 30+ mph. I recommend the J-Bay to anyone looking for a solid cruising or carving board, that can still stick it to some hills if you're into downhill at all.

Sector 9 Finger Longboard Review
The sector 9 fingers longboard is great for cruising around town or carving the park. The fingers comes with wheel cutouts which helps prevent wheelbite (which sucks no matter what you’re doing). The fingers also has a slight kicktail for added maneuverability and stability. The fingers also has a short wheelbase for sharp and precise turns. I recommend the fingers to anyone looking for a good board for carving or cruising.
The fingers comes with san clemente trucks and wheels but I suggest buying some of our premium trucks and wheels. For wheels I suggest sector 9′s in a 70mm or higher, I especially like orangatangs and abec11′s. For trucks I recommend getting sidewinders, these are extremely responsive and will make your carving at the park like riding through hot butter. The fingers also comes with abec 5 bearings but I recommend getting reds because they’re only 10$ more and make 10 times the difference.

Sector 9 Goddess Longboard Review
The sector 9 goddess longboard is perfect for downhill sliding, cruising, and carving. The Goddess has a shorter wheelbase then most boards of this type, making it easier to transition into and out of slides, and for sharper more precise turning at the park. The Goddess also has wheel cutouts to help prevent wheelbite on the extremely sharp turns and those laybacks on those steep hills. I recommend the goddess to anyone from amateur to expert looking for a good sliding/carving board.
The sector 9 goddess comes with san clemente trucks and wheels but I highly recommend customizing your board with some of our premium trucks and wheels. For trucks i recommend buying chargers or bombers if you’re going to be sliding but if you’re not then definitely get the sidewinders. For wheels I recommend getting any sector 9 wheel in a 70mm or higher. As for bearing the board comes with abec 5′s but these can wear out fast going at high speeds, so I recommend buying some reds which are only 10$ extra but make a load of difference.

The patches also has a wide kicktail for easy turns on street corners and more maneuverability on the ramps.
The patches comes with san clemente trucks and wheels but I recommend buying some of our premium products. For trucks I recommend independents, chargers, or even mission 1′s.

The patches also comes with abec 5′s but I highly recommend getting some reds they’re only 10$ more and they make quite a difference. For more cheap longboards click this link cheap longboards
