The Geometric & Wander Series
Micro Cruiser
This wonderful multi-color longboard is part of Yocaher’s Geometric Series in the Micro Cruiser design. It looks a lot like some old school plastic boards from the 1970s and that is by design.
It can be used by kids since it’s only 25 inches long and a mere 6.5 inches wide. Though the design resonates with those looking back with nostalgia to a simpler time, Yocaher was sure to incorporate modern developments into this board.
The new designs in the Geometric Series use negative space and that shows off some of the excellent grain in the wood which in itself is a work of art.
The Micro Cruiser has a 13.5-inch wheelbase attached to the 7-ply maple board. Abec-7 Chrome Bearings are standard and it features 8mm risers.
