A tapered, directional, drop-through longboard that has the perfect amount of flex. The Drop Cat 38 is ideal for taller riders or people looking for a stable yet responsive feel. The medium flex will smooth out your ride on rough pavement while still being stiff enough to handle some speed and sliding. The flares on the corners of the deck keep you locked in and comfortable. An aggressive rocker brings you closer to the ground and changes the angle of the trucks, which increases the responsiveness of the board. The lowered platform makes this board extra fast for pushing and large commutes, while simultaneously increasing stability. Get a taste of perfection with the Drop Cat 38.

One Board One Tree

To give back to the environment we have decided that for every skateboard we sell, we plant a tree. One tree produces at least 60 boards. So with our program, one tree will turn into at least 60 new trees planted.

100% Canadian Maple

Canadian Maple is a strong and proven material used in the world’s best skateboards. We source only the finest veneers found in Eastern Canada.

DROP THROUGH

Drop through decks are lower to the ground and enjoy increase stability without sacrificing maneuverability.

MEDIUM CAVE

The perfect middle ground, enough concave that you always feel glued to your board, but not too much to hurt your feet during a longer cruise.

ROCKER

Rocker provides a more comfortable foot platform by adjusting the deck angles to a skater’s natural stance. It also adds board control and increases responsiveness under your feet.

Length: 38.6"
Width: 9.9"
Wheelbase: 29.3"

Time-tested maple construction and super low ride height come together with a futuristic rocker profile to create a board that lets you travel through time to sample the very best of what we've learned over 20-plus years of designing boards. The Dune graphic is created by Jesse Stone. The Drop Cat 38 is made with 8 plies of high-quality Canadian maple and comes in at 38″ long by 9.9″ wide. 180mm Gen 6 reverse kingpin trucks are a perfect fit for this deck, and we set it up in the 50-degree baseplate option for maximum carve-ability. To finish it off, we added the 72mm, 78a Plow Kings for a smooth, fast ride. Dig deep into your carves and enjoy every minute of your skate with the Drop Cat.

Flex Rating

So, what’s flex and why is it important to a skateboard? In skate-nerd terms, flex is the amount of displacement a deck sees when a specific amount of force is applied to it. Check out our formula to the left! There are a few factors that affect flex, like deck thickness, wheelbase, and the amount of force on a deck. We built a machine and put our entire lineup to the test by applying the exact same amount of force to all our boards and measured the displacement we saw in each. This gives a totally scientific and accurate flex range across our entire line! It’s important to understand flex when choosing a board. Here are some basics: Downhill/freeride skateboards will have less flex because you need a stiff platform to stand on when you’re bombing or gripping a corner at speed. Carving skateboards will have more flex, giving you the ability to sink into your turns and pump or carve with ease. Most cruisers, dance and ATV boards will have less flex for control when doing tricks but just enough to be forgiving when pushing around town. We’ve engineered our boards with the best flex for each style of riding but remember, flex is subjective so get out a see what you like the most!
