Wed, 18 Nov 2009 18:45:24 -0500

The Forum Youngblood Chillydog builds from the original Youngblood with the addition of Chillydog’s Continuous Rocker. The Rocker utilizes a constant arc underfoot that makes the board more stable and predictable, which means no more catching your edge on take-offs or landings. Like its predecessor, the Youngblood Chillydog sports the original Gnar Core, made entirely out of high-grade Hunter S. Aspen and lightweight for a more snappy and responsive ride. Signature to the Chillydog is its Freebase base, which features a slick material that waxes easy for speed. Additional features include an FGel Sidewall that dampens the board during asphalt landings; beveled edges; and a Swingers Club certification that means the Youngblood can spin quicker due to shavings in weight.
