Magneto 44 Inch Kicktail Cruiser - 44 x 9 Inch Stiff Deck

Magneto 44 Inch Kicktail Cruiser Longboard uses a 44 x 9 inch bamboo and maple deck, a stiff 11 mm construction, and soft 70mm urethane wheels. The full-size platform is built for cruising, carving, and city riding rather than technical downhill competition.

Stiff Deck And Soft Wheels

The deck combines six plies of hard maple with two bamboo plies and measures 11 mm thick. Magneto's specifications list a stiff flex profile, giving the 44-inch board a stable base for pushing and carving.

Its wheels measure 70mm x 51mm and use high-rebound urethane with a Shore 78A hardness rating. That combination gives the complete board a softer wheel setup than a trick-focused skateboard, while the 9-inch width leaves room for a settled stance.

Trucks And Rider Capacity

Gravity-cast aluminum trucks measure 7 inches wide and use SHR bushings with medium stiffness. Target lists four wheels, an 8 lb product weight, and a 272 lb capacity for the Retro Surf listing, while the manufacturer's specification page gives a 275 lb rider rating.

The board arrives as a complete longboard with its deck, trucks, wheels, and bushings installed. The kicktail adds leverage for tight turns and curb transitions, but the long deck and stiff flex favor rolling stability over lightweight trick performance.

Price And Category Position

Magneto's longboard collection lists a regular price of $109.99 for the 44 Inch Kicktail Cruiser. The brand collection identifies the 44 Inch Kicktail Cruiser and its regular price.

That places the complete board in the accessible longboard segment, below specialized downhill and dancing setups with more elaborate geometries. Its strongest fit is recreational cruising, moderate carving, and commuting on paved routes where a broad deck and 78A wheels are useful.

Verdict For Cruising

The Magneto 44 Inch Kicktail Cruiser is a straightforward longboard cruiser with a stiff 44 x 9 inch deck, 7 inch trucks, 70mm wheels, and a documented rider rating above 270 lb. It suits riders who value a stable platform and soft rolling setup; riders seeking downhill racing equipment or a compact trick board need a different design.
