Landyachtz

Landyachtz is a longboard brand from Canada. It was created in 1997 when Michael Perreten and Thomas Edstrand met at university. Both in love with skateboarding, these two Canadians decided to combine their efforts to create their own boards. They have spent the last two decades developing skateboards with the aim of creating the perfect board.

The design of the deck was one of the first things the designers looked at. The Brand wanted to give riders more stability at high speeds without sacrificing control. To achieve this, the team began bending wood in every conceivable way to create platforms offering optimal control. Over the years, they learned to bend maple in ways they'd previously thought impossible. All the brand's skateboards are shaped to give you the best performance, control, comfort and fun in every situation.

Landyachtz uses a wide variety of materials in their boards, but the vast majority are made from Canadian maple. Not all Canadian maples are created equal. Trees are as individual as we are. Some trees have long, uniform fibers that make excellent veneers for planks. And there are trees that are gnarled, old and haggard, good only for making haunted houses. That's why the company hand-selects the trees that make up its planks.

This expertise over the years has made the brand one of the leaders in the sector, and is a guarantee of quality and high performance.

Today, the brand's HQ is housed in an old building in Vancouver that they have refurbished themselves. The employees all live nearby and all have a board under their feet. A brand made by and for enthusiasts.

The range is extremely varied, with boards for freeride, downhill and cruising. What all these Landyachtz longboards have in common is quality!
