The most popular carving style sector 9 longboard has to be the scarab. It is the rasta inspired carving longboard that you have probably seen around as it quite possibly is the most popular longboard of all time! It is a true pintail shape at 40-inches long and 9.2-inches wide which creates a nice mid ranged size board that is easy to balance and is very sturdy for carves and high speed. It is a taco mold deck and has a mild concave to help grip to your feet. It really is the best all around longboard. It is great for slalom style downhill riding, cruising, and is even great for slides. It has one of the shortest wheelbases of the carver series sector 9 longboards which creates better turning capability.
You can set this longboard up in so many different ways. It really just depends on what you are looking for so I’ll give a few ideas on how to set it up for a few styles of riding. If you are looking for speed, carving, and downhill riding you want the 10″ gullwing charger trucks, some sector 9 platinum abec 9 bearings, and the 69mm slalom style wheels in the red color! If you want to use the sector 9 scarab longboard for a pure cruiser, keep it simple with a standard truck, 64-65mm wheel, and some nice abec 5 bearings. If you want a mix of each get the charger trucks, abec 5 bearings, and the 65mm nineball wheels.
