Loaded Tan Tien DECK with New Graphic - Tan Tien with a twist!!! Same bad ass shape, same bad ass pop and style, new graphic!!! The Tan Tien is a hybrid of sorts between the dervish and a short board, meaning you can crush it like a longboard with the maneuverability of a short board. Dantian, Dan Tien or Tan t'ien literally means "cinnabar or red field" and is loosely translated as "elixir field". It is described as an important focal point for internal meditative techniques and refers specifically to the physical center of gravity located in the abdomen (about three finger widths below and two finger widths behind the navel). The dantian is important in Neidan, qigong, neigong, tao yin and other breathing techniques, as well as in traditional Chinese medicine. It is also widely used throughout East Asian meditation and martial art theories, especially the neijia school of Chinese martial arts and Tai Chi Chuan. Taoist and Buddhist teachers often instruct their students to center their mind in the dantian. This is believed to aid control of thoughts and emotions. Acting from the dantian is considered to be related to the state of samadhi.

Tan Tien Flex 3: 80-170+ lbs, L: 39" WB: 27" Tan Tien Flex 2: 130-210+ lbs, L: 39" WB: 27" Tan Tien Flex 1: Up to 270 lbs, L: 39" WB: 27" Keep in mind that a softer flex pattern will give you more control and tighter turns at a wide range of speeds, but tend to lose stability slightly at higher speeds. Stiffer flex means more energy potential and more stability at higher speeds, but will not be as forgiving and lively when cruising.
