Classic Luge

     Classic Luge or "buttboard" as it is affectionately known, represents the pure, low tech, low cost origins of gravity sports. We all started lying on skateboards at some point. Buttboards are simply larger skateboards designed for riding "luge style" downhill. Not much more than a plank with wheels, classic luge is still one heckuva thrill. The Classic Luge tests the pilots' ability by limiting the buttboard's design mods (like those available to Street Lugers) to gain an equipment advantage. Just because the rules limit the Buttboard design doesn't mean you can't get the BEST design available. Skateluge USA's own Classic Luge IS the best design you can buy.

Classic Luges

      Skateluge USA's own Classic Luge is built for some serious gravity powered competition. Designed after years of downhill research, this diversion from our popular Skateluge format will be turning heads at the finish line. The 15 mm laminated BIRCH deck features two full length parallel bends creating the perfect shape for Classic Luge. Each deck sports the now famous Skateluge classic logo. Our Classic Luge comes with the proven Randal RII-B trucks and ABEC 11 wheels. We even put Biltin Bearings in the wheels 'cuz they are the best for the job. The deck is topped with our super grippy ACTION PAD but we'll let you stick on where you like it.

     Buttboarding can be a VERY DANGEROUS activity and we recommend you purchase a certified helmet, full leather suit and good gloves. You'll be stopping with your feet so you'll need brakes shoes (shoes with extra rubber glued to the bottom). Learn more about Classic Luge HERE.

     Our completely assembled Buttboard is awesome but we can sell the deck only as well so you can dial it in as you wish. You can get this Classic Luge ONLY at the Half Ass Expeditions Factory Outlet Store.
