A symmetrical longboard with a light rocker, a flat surface for setting the trucks, and a little more flex than her older sisters.<\/p>\n<p>Many models and many prototypes later <strong>Aurea<\/strong> showed up, with 38\u201d in length and 9,25\u201d in width, a sole 23\u201d wheelbase, more accented tails and a soft and comfortable flex for dancing.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24207\" src=\"https:\/\/goatlongboards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/goatlongboards-goat-longboard-boards-blog-vortex-aurea-02-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"496\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goatlongboards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/goatlongboards-goat-longboard-boards-blog-vortex-aurea-02-1.jpg 700w, https:\/\/goatlongboards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/goatlongboards-goat-longboard-boards-blog-vortex-aurea-02-1-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/goatlongboards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/goatlongboards-goat-longboard-boards-blog-vortex-aurea-02-1-600x425.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Vortex, let it flow!<\/h2>\n<p>We also wanted to make a more versatile board: A wider longboard with very little flex, wide tails and larger surface area for your feet. A board for dancing, freestyle, and freeride that you can ride in a pump track or even dare to try it out in the bowl!<\/p>\n<p>We knew it would be challenging to reach a common ground between these two styles without losing some of the specific qualities that the board needs for each discipline, but thanks to our riders and the work we\u2019ve done together, we have arrived to our <strong>Vortex<\/strong>: A symmetric longboard with 38\u201d in length and 9,5\u201d in width, a very light and reactive board. Featuring a light rocker, a flat surface for the trucks, a soft concave which accentuates towards the higher part of the board right before reaching the trucks. Two Wheel Base positions, 22\u201d and 23,5\u201d, which you can adjust to your style of riding. You can even combine both distances to use the board in a unidirectional manner, allowing you to have both tail and nose.<\/p>\n<p>Its wide and steep tails will let you to fly your board through the air and land on all your tricks with ease.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24205\" src=\"https:\/\/goatlongboards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/goatlongboards-goat-longboard-boards-blog-vortex-aurea-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"496\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goatlongboards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/goatlongboards-goat-longboard-boards-blog-vortex-aurea-03.jpg 700w, https:\/\/goatlongboards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/goatlongboards-goat-longboard-boards-blog-vortex-aurea-03-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/goatlongboards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/goatlongboards-goat-longboard-boards-blog-vortex-aurea-03-600x425.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For our <strong>Aurea<\/strong> and <strong>Vortex<\/strong> graphics, we collaborated with Josema Carrillo, the artist behind the graphic design of our <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/goatlongboards.com\/en\/boards\/longboards\/uzume\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Uzume<\/a><\/strong>, this time creating a totally different yet bold style.<\/p>\n<p>From the beginning of this project we wanted both of our new boards to share a concept, a common origin, so we decided that both their names and graphic design on them should be related.
