With a board as wild as this, we thought it deserved a wild graphic as well. We don’t know where Alejandro Sordi came up with the idea to include a keyboard in this graphic, but it’s not the only keyboard in our lineup so we’re clearly big fans! The graphic isn’t the only trick this board has up its sleeve though, it also has an extremely unique shape, tons of rocker and a super low drop-through design for the ultimate longboard experience. The Drop Cat 38 is perfect for taller riders or people looking for a more stable ride. Take a journey on 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"

Watch the Drop Cat 38 Journey in action

This larger, directional drop-through longboard comes in at 38" long by 9.9" wide. 8 ply construction in a board of this size results in a tiny amount of dampening flex which works to smooth out your ride on any rougher roads while still being stiff enough to handle some speed and sliding. This board also has a healthy dose of rocker and aggressive concave to keep your feet comfortable and locked in place while freeriding. You will notice the flares starting to rise as your foot nears the four corners of the standing platform, which gives you great reference points, so you know exactly where your feet are without looking down. The longer wheelbase and larger turning circle of the 38” version of the Drop Cat means that you can savor each carve a little more and utilize a laid back, flowy riding style. Having a wider standing platform also allows you to spread your feet out more which makes it easier to balance and makes this board slightly more predictable than the smaller 33” version. The Drop Cat comes equipped with our flagship 50-degree 180mm Grizzly Gen 6 trucks ideal for deep carves and confident cruising as well as some big 70mm 78a Hawgs Supremes wheels for a smooth, fast and super grippy ride.

Trucks

Wheels

We design our trucks and wheels to fit perfectly with each individual deck. We work tirelessly to ensure these elements come together to provide the best control and performance for your board. No slop, all control. Don't accept anything less than the perfect complete.   Learn More >

Flex Rating

Flex has a big impact on the overall feel of your board and is influenced by a bunch of different factors. The main ones being thickness of the deck, it's wheelbase and rider weight. To put the equation in laymans terms: more flex occurs when you decrease thickness of the deck, increase the wheelbase and increase rider weight. The more flex in your board the more carvy and agile it'll feel, less flex means it's more stable and suited for faster skating. We test every complete with a device we built in house, specifically to standardize flex ratings.

Drop cat 33 for the win

I’ve looked forward to a board like this for a while. I get excited to see it next to the front door every time a glance over at it, it’s a blast to ride and it looks sweet.

Love it!

The design on this board is amazing. the size and geometry is also very cool and on the smaller size compared to my old drop hammer. i love it just as much as my drop hammer but it is just that much better when taking it to school because it’s easier to carry due to size.

Board is a work of art, super fun to ride, and practical.

I am super stoked on this board. Full disclosure: when it first came, I almost sold it and bought the bigger one because I'm just over 5'9" (176 cm) and the stance is a wee bit tight for me-- but I was just so enamored with the design that I kept staring at it and decided to give it another chance and I'm glad I did, now that I'm used to it, I love it. My other board is a dinghy blunt so I'm used to 1) a somewhat tight stance and 2) Maneuverability + responsiveness. This has got to be one of the most responsive longboards on the market. I mostly commute around a busy neighborhood and it can absolutely corner and carve like it's a hoverboard. Wheels roll through everything. Super easy to push long distances, keeps roll speed a long time, easy to pump, and EASY TO CARRY IN STORES. Dude, it's so light. I can push it way longer than my dinghy without my feet getting tired. And I love the design and shape-- I actually find it more beautiful on the grip tape side, so I stored it leaning against the wall face up and the wheels scuffed my wall hahaha. Idc I have magic eraser.

Okay so-- what's special about this board is that is that it has a lot of flex but somehow it's still really stable. If you're a beginner it's easy to control and steer but if you're more advanced there's a lot of room for growth with pumping, carving, sliding, mellow hill stuff and fast maneuvering through a real city environment.

I would caution based on height-- Like I said, I'm about 5'9" which puts me…

First quality board

What a difference a high quality board makes! My first time on any board was last year when I bought 2 cheaper long boards. When this went on sale I figured I’d try it out because I liked the idea of it being a little smaller and lower to the ground. I wasn’t expecting much difference other than the size from my older boards. I was very much wrong, the drop cat is a huge improvement! It is so much smoother and more comfortable. The lower height and flex feels so much better and has given me more confidence. Every time I go out I am amazed with the comfort and its ability to roll over any minor crack or bump I throw at it. I am very impressed with everything about this board and would recommend to anyone looking for a quality ride. I am sold on Landyachtz and will 100% be a returning customer!
