A fan and family favorite, the 8’ Pickup Stick is long enough to be called a longboard but unbelievably agile and fun. Designed by Mike Olson with the help of Hendo, this beauty is built for amazing nose rides while still retaining a playful short board feel. A flat wide concave nose carries speed and glides effortlessly through extended nose rides. Parallel rail lines through the body of the board insure trim speed. A rounded pin tail with the most rocker of any of our Pickup Sticks provides effortless turning, control and hold through high performance arcs off the tail. The bottom contour is part of what really makes this board magic... a forgiving catch free chine runs along the rails from in front of the fins all the way around the nose. A single concave to double V out the tail adds planing speed and allows the board to easily transition from rail to rail. The 8’ has become a favorite around the world... it fits in the elevator or inside your car and rips turns like boards two feet shorter and glides like boards two feet longer.
