Landyachtz Drop Hammer Review

June 2, 2022

The Drop Hammer is Landyachtz’s take on the classic drop-through longboard. Check out my review of the Landyachtz Drop Hammer below to find out more.

Table of Contents

• Length:  36.5″
• Wheelbase: 27.25 
• Construction: 8plys Canadian Maple
• Stiffness: Flexible
• Max weight: Not sure but hold about 250lbs comfortably
• Wheels: 69 Hawgs or Supreme Hawgs. 69mm or 70mm respectively.
• Trucks: Reverse kingpin Bear Gen 6 trucks. 50*, 180mm.
• Bearings: Bear Space Balls Abec 7 bearings.

The Landyachtz Drop Hammer is a surprisingly comfortable and easy to ride board. I was blown away by how natural and easy to ride it felt. Within a few minutes of standing on it, I was riding confidently.

The board is simple. No fancy features, just straightforward execution. 

You get a flexible deck that has comfortable mellow concave. It isn’t too long or too short and accommodates a comfortable shoulder-width stance. It has a bit of flex which absorbs road vibrations and provides a comfortable ride over all sorts of riding environments. The flex also allows you to bounce in and out of turns, or dig into the board during a carve. It’s fun.

The deck also has cutouts that provide great clearance for wheels so you never get wheelbite (even if you use big 80mm wheels).

You get high-quality components too.

The trucks lean and turn smoothly and allow for a ton of control, they’re quite stable too. The Bear Gen 6 trucks are some of the best trucks available today and have the best feeling ride in my opinion.

Paired with the 69mm 69 Hawgs (or 70mm Supremes), you get wheels that are easy to push, roll fast, and hold their speed decently. 

These wheels are quite good, but I’d recommend you upgrade to 80mm tall wheels (if you have the money). Trust me when I say, you’ll get the most out of the Drop Hammer with them – and no wheelbite either! 

The Drop Hammer is good. It’s simple but it gets the job done super well. It’s a very easy to ride board and is very beginner-friendly.

So whether you’re a beginner or a more experienced rider looking for a stable and easy-to-ride cruiser board, the Drop Hammer is an excellent choice.

Is the Landyachtz Drop Hammer comfortable?

I was blown away by how comfortable and easy to ride the Drop Hammer is.

The board has mellow concave which comfortably cradles your feet.

It isn’t too long or too short, allowing you to have a natural shoulder-width stance on this board whilst still being able to control it comfortably. Being forced to stand too narrow or too wide on a board can be a bit tiring the longer you have to ride it for.

The board also has a tiny bit of flex. This is super useful and adds a lot of comfort to the ride. When riding over road imperfections (rougher roads, pebbles, stone roads), the flex absorbs some of the vibrations. This stops your feet from getting tired out too quickly when you’re riding.

Pro tip: Generally If you ride a rough road for very long, you’ll notice the vibrations will tire out your feet quickly. Boards with flex (and big wheels) reduce vibrations and allow you to ride for longer.

Finally, the trucks are stable and don’t turn unless you give them a direct input to turn. This is important. Instead of fighting to keep your trucks going straight, your feet can relax and you can comfortably just stand on top of the board and let it go straight. This allows you to ride for longer without getting tired.

Does it turn well?

The Bear Gen 6 trucks turn well.

They lean and turn smoothly, and support you through the turn. They are beginner-friendly and inspire a lot of confidence. I imagine a lot of people are going to be taking aggressive carves with these trucks cause of how well they perform.

Thanks to the design of the trucks (the plug-barrel system – check out the Bear Gen 6 review for more info), these trucks are inherently stable and offer a kind of effortless riding experience. They want to keep going straight if you don’t give them any input.

And paired with the long wheelbase of the deck, it’s so easy to keep this board going in a straight line.

But yeah, this deck is turny but not as turny as a mini-cruiser.

Is the Drop Hammer nimble?

The Drop Hammer isn’t super long, but it is still a pretty longboard. This means it isn’t super nimble.

If you’re trying to weave in and out of traffic or in-between tight obstacles, you will suffer. The board doesn’t make the tightest of turns easily. 

That aside, it will be turny enough for most uses.

Is it too big (is the Drop Hammer portable)?

No, it isn’t. The Drop Hammer is probably the perfect size for a big cruiser. 

It isn’t too big, but isn’t too small to the point you’d be uncomfortable on it. It’s just right.

But in terms of portability, I only feel semi-comfortable carrying it around. I definitely feel the weight and size when I am carrying it around the supermarket or on a bus. It definitely isn’t as portable board as the Dinghy or Tugboat.

I wouldn’t mind it if I had to carry it around occasionally, but I wouldn’t be happy if I had to carry it around frequently.

Can you push far with the Landyachtz Drop Hammer?

With the stock wheels, you can push decently far on this board. I’ve found myself comfortably skating 5-7km (3-5miles).

If you upgrade the wheels to big 80mm ones as I have. Distances of 10km (6miles) and more will be manageable. 

Is the Drop Hammer easy to push and footbrake?

Because the board is drop-through, several things are affected.

Being drop-through lowers the standing platform. It makes the board more stable, and because it brings it closer to the ground, easier to push and footbrake on. You simply don’t have to reach far to get to the ground.

Are the Drop Hammer components good quality?

As a complete, the Drop Hammer comes with amazing components. All high-quality.

Are the wheels fast?

The 70mm Supreme Hawgs or 69 Hawgs work great on this board.

They accelerate quickly, roll fast, and have decent momentum. They are awesome.

The Bear Spaceball Bearings work great out of the box. 

After some initial riding, the excess lubricant will flow out of them, so make sure to wipe em down to avoid dirt coating them.

And further down the line after a few months of riding, do lubricate them. They use a thin lube that doesn’t last as long as I’d like it to. Fortunately, the inner race is exposed so lubing them up is quite easy.

I recommend Lithium grease for your lubricant as it lasts longs and provides a smooth, silent ride.

Are the trucks and bushings high-quality?

The trucks are some of the best in the game. You can’t go wrong with them, they’re awesome.

The Bear Gen 6 trucks have a leany carvy feel. Paired with the high-rebound stock bushings, you get a truck that carves well, but wants to bounce you out of the turn.

They are so playful and are a joy to have under your feet.

That said, the bushings are on the stiffer feeling side – not good for super lightweight riders. But heavy riders and beginners would appreciate how supportive they feel in the lean and turn. 

If you’re a lightweight rider, don’t hesitate to get aftermarket bushings that will lean easier for you.

The Drop Hammer looks good

I’m not a big fan of the drop-through look and shape, but the Landyachtz Drop Hammer makes it work.

Most drop-throughs have a rounded shape (on-the-wheel cutouts), and I think this makes them look tacky and a little bit ugly.

The Drop Hammer with its sharper cutouts and angled shape looks a bit more tasteful in my eyes.

This is all personal preference. But the Drop Hammer and its graphics are def a looker.

The one upgrade you should make

If you can afford it, big 80mm wheels make this board a lot better. It takes it to the next level and improves how it rides.

Apart from an additional expense and a heavier board, there are no drawbacks to doing this.

However, if you are a lighter rider (or a kid), the 70mm stock wheels may be better suited for you. It does take a bit of effort to get the 80mm wheels moving and kids may not be able to do that comfortably.

What I didn’t like about this board

Honestly, there’s not a lot I didn’t like about this board. It obviously isn’t perfect and there are changes I can make to make it more suited to me personally, but it is executed well with no inherent drawbacks in my opinion. It’s an all-around great board.

Of course, there may be some disadvantages of it being a drop-through or big cruiser, but those are inherent to the style and not a fault of the board.

Is it fairly priced?

Absolutely. Before the supply chain cost increase hit this board it was about $200 (and still is here at the Stoked Ride shop ).

Even now with the higher costs of everything (seriously, skateboarding got a lot more expensive all-around), its under $300 price point is still fair.

Is the Landyachtz Drop Hammer good for beginners?

Yes, it is. It is easy to ride and comfortable. The trucks are stable and the board is easy to control. It is one of the most beginner-friendly longboards you can get.

Where to buy the Landyachtz Drop Hammer?

You can buy the Landyachtz Drop Hammer here at the Stoked Ride Shop.

You can also buy the Drop Hammer here at Amazon.com .

Is the Landyachtz Drop Hammer right for you?

You can’t go wrong with the Drop Hammer. It will make an excellent first board for many riders.

What bushings did you end up going with BS/RS for the pictured setup on the drop hammer?

I went with 90a Venom HPF plug barrels

Kevin Krueger

Hi AbugaA, i’m considering buying this board as my 3rd board. I currently own a Lush Freebyrd which feels a bit stiff and not carvy enough and a Dinghy. Would you recommend this board for long smooth carvy rides? Thanks!

yes! Just make sure you grab some big wheels, it will make it work a bit better 🙂

Landyachtz Drop Hammer Review: Comfortable, Pushable, Stable

Posted on Last updated: April 22, 2021

Categories Gear & reviews

Sharing is caring!

The Drop Hammer from Landyachtz is a classic mid-sized drop-through longboard ideal for smooth and comfortable cruising and responsive carving. It offers a very wide deck with exceptional foot space for cruising.

Yet, the Drop Hammer is relatively compact and lightweight for a symmetrical drop-through board, making it a good option for everyday commutes. It’s also very suitable for carving down small hills and pushing longer distances.

Whom/what is the Drop Hammer good for?

Commuting and pushing

A few things make the Drop Hammer a fine commuter boar:

• Comfortable for pushing: the drop-through design makes the board ride lower to the ground compared to a topmount, making it very suitable for push commuting distance.
• Wide foot platform: the Drop Hammer deck is 10″ in width – which is quite wide. This also makes it comfortable to ride for long periods of time including with a bigger shoe size.
• Decently portable: the midsize shape of the Drop Hammer makes it OK to carry around on a train or into a store – although its width still gives it some bulk.
• The large (72mm) soft (78A) Hawgs wheels allow for fast riding on diverse terrain. You get a lot of roll for your kicks.

Cruising and carving

• The wide foot platform makes the Drop Hammer very comfortable for cruising. The super smooth Bear Grizzly trucks and the soft and grippy wheels also contribute to the cruising pleasure on this board.
• This board can carve hard for a drop-through. The Bear trucks are known for their responsiveness, and the huge cutouts give the board tons of wheel clearance for tight turns on a hill.

Although it’s not designed to be a high-speed downhill board, the Drop Hammer makes a pretty good beginner to intermediate freeride board due to its twin shape (switch riding), carving ability, but also its stability at higher speed.

The latter results from a relatively long wheelbase (27+”), very stiff flex, and uber-stable Bear trucks. The mild W concave also helps keep your feet in place and give you a secure feel when riding faster.

The concave, high width, and low ride give you confidence for sliding on this board. The drop-through mount makes slides more predictable and stable, even though you need a bit more effort to break traction.

All-around beginner longboard

Riders often command the Drop Hammer for being a great beginner board. The wide and ample platform makes it ideal for learners. It works particular well for smaller riders, and for heavier ones thanks to very stiff, sturdy build and stable ride.

Some smaller riders love the Drop Hammer for throwing it around and doing basic freestyle tricks. The nice walkable platform and decent twin kicks makes it fun to play with.

Of course, the large wheel cutouts aren’t the best for advanced freestyle and dancing tricks as they increase the change of foot rub.

What riders say about the Drop Hammer

Here’s a recap of key rider feedback regarding the Landyachtz Drop Hammer:

• The Drop Hammer is a very good carving board with a feeling close to that of snowboarding.
• This board is light and feels responsive, it allows you to try aggressive maneuvers without getting out of control.
• Although turning may not be as tight as on a topmount, this board is very responsive and maneuvers easily.
• The Drop Hammer feels wide, comfortable, and stable. In contrast to other longboards, it rides smoothly even on rugged city streets.
• The Drop Hammer has great carving capabilities while still being stable enough for riding down decent hills with no speed wobbles.
• The Drop Hammer is strong and durable and can take a 250-300lb rider without issues.
• This board is quite lightweight and easy to carry around.
• The artwork on the Pinecone version of the Drop Hammer is stunning.

Drop Hammer shape & construction

As mentioned, the Drop Hammer is a true drop-through twin shape characterized by a very wide standing platform relative to the midsize length.

The Pinecone version of the Drop Hammer has a 7-ply Canadian Maple construction, resulting in a very stiff and sturdy deck capable of handling heavier riders.

The minimal W concave on this board is mellow with a small ridge in the middle and slightly uplifted rails. Although subtle, the concave is sufficient for comfortable foot lock-in when carving and sliding.

The Drop Hammer features ample wheel cutouts for wheelbite-free turns, and small tail and nose kicks that come in handy for simple kick tricks.

Landyachtz Drop Hammer setup

The Landyachtz Drop Hammer comes fitted with the Bear Grizzly Gen 6 RKP trucks, among the top longboard trucks on the market. They have a reputation for being awesome carving trucks.

The Grizzlies can be flipped for a lower baseplate angle well-suited for downhill speed.

The 6th generation of the Bear Grizzlies have bushing seats that are open and free turning. They feature stepped insert bushings which allow for deep carves with no slop through the complete turn. The Gen 6 also look great.

The Drop Hammer ships with highly-rated Hawgs Plough King 72mm 78A wheels.

Drop Hammer - Skate or Dye

Light, stiff and highly carvable. The Drop Hammer is great for anyone looking to spice up their commute, carve down a mellow hill, get rad on their way to class or just get out for an afternoon ride with friends. The Skate or Dye features a vibrant new graphic we cooked up in-house that is sure to bring some brightness to your day every time you grab your board and head out your front door.

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.

Mellow concave that barely feels like it’s there, but designed to give you the control you need, when you need it.

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.

SYMMETRICAL

Go both ways with symmetrical board design. Generally found in freeride and downhill decks, these boards allow the rider to skate both regular and switch without changing up their stance.

Watch the Drop Hammer Skate Or Dye in Action

The Drop Hammer is a drop through longboard capable of many different things. Don’t let the simple shape fool you, simplicity is bliss. Featured is a nice flat concave which is extremely comfortable and helps get your feet exactly where you want them to be for those rad slides or deep carves. The board has a nice soft flex which makes it really playful and makes for a smooth ride. A 10” inch width at the end of the standing platform tapers down to 9.375” inches at the middle, creating a shape that can be used for leverage over the trucks or to lock your feet into the edges of the board. Large cut-outs allow for fantastic wheel clearance, meaning those 70mm 78a Supreme Hawgs will never touch the deck. The Bear Gen 6 180mm 50-degree trucks are mounted through the board to provide a gradual, responsive turn that will give you confidence and performance. Overall, this is a great board for almost any situation.

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.

Linde to build large ammonia plant in Russia

Corporate News

Formation of joint venture with JSC KuibyshevAzot

On-site project with total investment volume of around EUR 275 million

Deal further strengthens Linde’s position in fast-growing Russian market

Munich, 28 May 2013 – The technology company The Linde Group has formed a joint venture with chemical company JSC KuibyshevAzot to build and operate a large ammonia plant at the Togliatti site in Russia's Samara region.

Improvement Of The Development Management Process Of The Samara-Togliatti Agriculture

The relevance of the study of agglomeration processes is due to the fact that today, agglomerations are the most popular forms of territorial organization of settlement. In Russia with its vast territory, spatial factors play a great role in the development of the regions, agglomerations and the country. The development of agglomerations gives the region the opportunity to maintain and increase the competitiveness of the regional economy and further development of domestic consumer market. Agglomerations contribute to increasing the attractiveness of the region due to the accumulation of labour resources, business development and innovative educational environment. The development of the agglomeration also results in an increase in life quality of the population, an increase in the migration attractiveness of the region. In this regard, this article is aimed at studying the process of managing the development of the agglomeration, developing trends for improving the development of the Samara-Togliatti agglomeration. The article identifies 14 components of agglomerations’ development. They are economic and institutional components. Within these components of agglomerations’ development, the trends of the Samara-Togliatti agglomeration are identified, which are associated with the strategy of socio-economic development of the Samara region. The agglomeration development process must be regulated, since independent uncontrolled development can lead to negative consequences. In this regard, the model of management agglomeration system was elaborated taking into account the selected components with the definition of managing and managed subsystems and other elements of the system. Keywords: Agglomeration agglomeration components agglomeration development trends agglomeration development management system model

Problem Statement

The problems of agglomerations’ development are reflected in the works of Russian scientists. In particular, Lappo and Honsch ( 2000 ), in his studies of the history of agglomerations development in Russia, noted that improving the economic structure of Russian cities, laws on environment protection and balanced settlement policy could potentially lead to a general improvement in life quality and economic opportunities.

Loibl, Etminan, Gebetsroither-Geringer, Neumann and Sanchez-Guzman ( 2018 ) see growth as the main driver of urban metropolitan areas. The main reason for the growth is people’s migration to cities, which is caused by people's expectations to find more favourable living conditions.

There is research about the stages of spatial expansion of urban agglomeration ( Fang & Yu, 2017 ); transport routes’ overloading, which can be solved by forming a polycentric agglomeration model based on clusters, including efficient transport infrastructure ( Tokunova, 2017 ) and the development of a model of transport demand ( Yakimov, 2018 ). In addition to public transport, the authors of the articles also determine other directions for agglomerations’ development: urban regulation, housing construction, social sphere development, and labour market ( Popodko, 2017 ).

The issue of agglomerations’ development is also essential foe Chinese scientists who are considering a policy to optimize the development of Chinese urban agglomerations ( He, Zhou, Tang, Fan, & Guo, 2019 ), issues of their sustainable development, design and operational management of agglomeration systems ( Huang et al., 2020 ). There are articles with the research about the problems of agglomerations’ development in Central and Eastern Europe, their main growth factors were foreign investment resources and clusters’ creation ( Starostina, Ustymenko, & Shevchenko, 2017 ). Agglomeration is considered as a centre for regional economic development based on tourism industry, sharing infrastructure, and adapting to climate change ( Rahayu, Haigh, & Amaratunga, 2018 ). Some researchers determine the impact of agglomerations’ development on the population’s standard of living, creating comfortable living conditions, and obtaining high-quality educational, medical, and social services at reasonable prices ( Bershadsky, Nepomnyaschaya, & Shilova, 2012 ).

Thus, the authors will define certain aspects of agglomeration processes: production, labor, cultural, domestic, transport, but there is still no unified integrated structure that takes into account all the components of agglomeration processes. In addition, the methodology for managing socio-economic development of agglomerations in our country isn’t elaborated yet. All of above-mentioned facts indicate the relevance of the research topic.

Research Questions

Taking into account the gap in analysed works of scientists, there are following questions in the research:

What components should be taken into account in the process of managing the agglomeration’s development?

What are the development trends of the Samara-Togliatti agglomeration?

What is the model of agglomeration’s development management system?

Purpose of the Study

The aim of the study is to analyse the current state and to find ways to improve the development management process of the Samara-Togliatti agglomeration.

In accordance with this aim, the research seeks to solve the following main tasks:

Identify the components of agglomeration development management;

Determine the main development trends of the samara-togliatti agglomeration;

Develop a model of agglomeration development management system.

The object of research is the Samara-Togliatti agglomeration. The subject of the research is organizational and economic relations in the process of managing the development of the Samara-Togliatti agglomeration.

The materials of the article are of practical value for programs’ elaboration of socio-economic development at the regional and municipal levels, as well as the development strategy of the city of Samara and the Samara region.

DROP THROUGH

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

Mellow concave that barely feels like it’s there, but designed to give you the control you need, when you need it.

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.

Best board I've bought so far

Arrived quickly and undamaged. Rides smooth. My cat immediately thought it was her new bed.

Excellent board

Smooth and super fun for a beginner.

Smooths out the rough edges for an older, beginner skater

This board is very easy to ride. I haven’t been on a board in a long time. I hit a few videos and did some practicing on small areas and went out. The board carved great and handled sidewalks and city streets with ease. I’m not doing any tricks, just riding, but it is fun and easy to control.

Great starter board

rides smooth, compared to those cheap amazon boards. Trust me and invest in some quality builds. You can tell from the first push the barings alone are worth the cost.
