Longboarders have a new way to keep control and get a little adjustability with their boards. The PhatBlox is designed to help provide a bit more support for heftier riders, while also letting them make adjustments to fine-tune the feel for a smoother ride.
The system can be used to retro-fit a board in a few minutes. Made of billeted aluminum, the blocks (PhatBlox) are just installed around the trucks using very simple hardware. A cable connects between the front and rear blocks and once tightened it flexes the board downward and allows the deck to hold more weight. For some it might be an easier fix than dropping a few pounds. Additional images after the jump
