Model-T

There are a few magic numbers that I’ve always revolved my dimensions around with my longboards. I think the Model T is basically the best, most balanced longboard that’s been made. Joel [Tudor] developed it with Donald [Takayama] during a really cool time for longboarding. That board is 23 inches wide, 19 inches in the nose, and around 15.5 inches or 15.75 inches in the tail. There is nothing too dramatic about it. It has a little bit of rocker. The wide point is pretty much in the center. It’s just a really user-friendly, easy-to-ride board. - Justin Quintal (World Longboard Champion + Multi Duct Tape Champion) This design is the most well-rounded and versatile of Donald's classic retro line. With a broad, easy noserideable nose, and wide, surprisingly loose tail, this board is what every one of Donald's team riders has in their competitive quiver. With its 50/50 rails, single fin, square tail and volan cloth, this board is the perfect compliment to Donald's R-Pin Retro. Where the R-Pin Retro excels in shoulder high and bigger surf, the Model T's perfection lies in waves from shoulder high to ankle small.
