First time purchase from Vandem Longboard Shop and I'm sure it won't be my last, ordered a Landyachtz Dinghy Blunt Pinecone online and the board arrived the next day.
I'm very happy with the board and the service.
Looking forward to some nicer weather so I can hit the streets.

Lush Longboards Radian Freeride Longboard
Brand new for 2022, an all new freestyle and dance, freeride and slide, giant skateboard and massive good time from everyones favourite homegrown British brand - the Lush Radian.
This is a smaller, more technical version of the Lush Legend. More compact with reduced dimensions all round for a lighter and more nimble ride whilst still having enough space for your feet - think comfy cruising, fancy footwork and locked in for deep carves.
Want to dance but more interested in the freestyle style of flips and tricks? Look no further. With more than enough space for cross steps, the Radian will get you going no problem. As you look to add shuv-its, powerslides and aero-flips to your flow, the 41" inch platform is going to feel much more manageable than a longer more classic dancinig board. Less likely to hit you in the face, too. Ask me how I know...
The Radian features a super ergonomic platform thanks to the concave and 3D rocker mould. Wheel arches allow bigger wheels to be run without risk of wheelbite, and also provide extra markers for the soles of your feet - you don't have to look down when you feel the subtle curves of the pocket under your toes and heels. You know exactly where your feet are and can concentrate on whats important - the riding.
Proper kicks make ollies about as easy as they'll ever be on a board this size, so she's also really nimble around town compared to a lot of similar size boards.
A great all-rounder with capabilities from cruising to downhill slides and freestyle dance moves. With a funky geometric graphic by good friend Ben Williams and a solid undercarriage as always.
An awesome choice for a first board if you want to try out all different types of longboarding to see what appeals to you. An equally good addition to the quiver if you're looking to explore more sideways, upside-down or aerial action!
Woopow!
Lush Longboards Radian Freeride Longboard: Precision Complete Spec
Don't tell the other boards in the lineup… but this is definitely the most badass setup in the whole Lush Longboards lineup. Whether you're just wanting to meander along the seafront or huck yourself down the biggest mountain pass you can find, the Radian Precision setup will be right there with you. There's a whole lot in between that it can also do! And with the strongest, lightest trucks on the market they'll not only turn great today, but tomorrow and the rest of your life, no matter how many times you jump on it, drop off curbs or down the biggest set of stairs your knees can take. Thats not that many for me, but I still choose this one for the pure pleasure, the perfect leaning and turning, and the creamy slides.- Wheels: Cult Creator 72mm Longboard Wheels White (Stoneground)
- Trucks: Sabre Trucks Forged Precision Mk3 Truck 48 180mm
- Bearings: Sabre Built-In Labyrinth Bearings
Lush Longboards Radian Freeride Longboard: Elite Complete Spec
The Radian Elite complete is a juicy complete, set up with epic components that people tend to upgrade into if they don't have them already. With more of a freeride focus, the wheels are well loved the world over for getting sideways and radical, but thats not to say it suffers in the dance and freestyle department. This ones got your back for years to come, whatever type of riding you're looking for.- Wheels: Cult Creator 72mm Longboard Wheels White (Stoneground)
- Trucks: Sabre Standard Longboard Truck 48 180mm
- Bearings: Sabre Built-In Labyrinth Bearings
Lush Longboards Radian Freeride Longboard: Pro Complete Spec
The Radian Pro complete gets you stepping, flipping and tricking at a lower price point than the Elite build, without sacrificing much in the way of quality or longevity in the components. With more of a dance and freestyle focus, the smaller wheels will be lighter and get off the ground easier, whilst still being perfectly slide-able for those that way inclined.- Wheels: Cult Nova 60mm Longboard Wheels White

Is the Elite setup worth the extra £20?
For only an extra £20, you can upgrade the "Pro" setup to the "Elite" Level build.
The Elite setup is a pretty heavy wheel and bearing upgrade over the Pro.
You get Sabre Built-In Labyrinth Bearings - fully shielded, easy to clean, with built in bearing spacers. They roll faster and last longer than the Pro level metal shielded ABEC5 bearings.
The Elite complete also includes Cult Creator 72mm Longboard Wheels White (Stoneground), poured from a higher grade urethane. Premium urethane rolls fater, lasts longer, and generally injects a whole new level of life into the board - once you've skated decent wheels, you won't want anything else!
Less obvious is the wheel upgrade. Your extra £20 gets you a set of Cult Creator over the Pro build's Cult Nova. Apart from the obvious size difference, the Cult Creator are poured from a higher grade of urethane - an invisible difference that you will immediately notice as soon as you push the board off.
Just like the bearings, the wheel upgrade makes your board roll faster and last longer - what's not to like??
If you look at the SRP difference of these components and add them together you'll see that the upgrade from Pro to Elite represents serious value - trust us, it's well worth it.
Coupled with this, we've noticed that almost everyone who makes it into our shop ends up with an Elite setup - the value is clear once you have the board in your hands!
How about the Precision build?
If you're ready to skate the best setup out there the best of the best, step it up to the Precison Build!
For an extra £70, you get the same wheels and bearings as the Elite build, but with a set of Sabre Trucks Forged Precisions.
Given that a set of these trucks would normally set you back £180, that's a serious value for a serious setup!

Customise your ride!
We can change the truck bushings on this board to suit your weight and riding style!
This way your board will come set up perfectly for you, straight out of the box.
Just refer to the table below and make your choice as you add to cart!
| Rider weight | Bushing Hardness |
| 10 - 50kgs | Extra Soft |
| 50 - 72kgs | Softer |
| 72 - 90kgs | Stock Setup |
| 90 - 104kgs | Harder |
| 104 - 120kgs | Extra Hard |
Some other things to consider...
- If in doubt - go softer! Turnier boards are easier to balance on, and a lot more fun to skate.
- If you are "between hardnesses," we would recommend the softer option. So for example, for a 73kg rider, "Soft" rather than "Stock Setup" might be a better choice. Get in touch if you're not sure!
- if you want a very turny board - say for a dancing longboard - then it's worth going one stop softer than you otherwise would do. Watch out for wheelbite though!
- Likewise, if you want a board for downhill speed, then go up a step harder than the weight table suggests.
- You do have a bit of adjustment in the truck's kingpin nut, but we would suggest that if you have more than two threads showing then it's time to go to a harder bushing.
- If you already have a board (or some trucks!) and you would like to change your bushings to suit your weight, check out our truck/bushing compatability chart!
Lush Longboards Radian Freeride Longboard Reviews
United KingdomAmazing shop
Fantastic experience. Delivery was way faster than I was expecting. The complete that I got is great and I love the fact that the bushes are chosen specifically for the rider.
United KingdomAwesome advice and service.
I bought my first longboard last month from the team at Vandem. Great advice, awesome encouragement, speedy service and a beautiful Lush longboard. What more could you ask for?! Apart from a few dry days to take her for a spin of course!
United KingdomRad board and rad guys
Super happy with the setup, went for the precision setup which was bargain for the hardware I got! It did not let me down. Delivery was super speedy too.
United KingdomVersatile board!
I purchased this looking for a board with a symmetrical board and tail for more convenient fliptrick purposes. Was originally looking at the Legend, but I'm a heavy guy so opted for the slightly shorter and less flexy cousin. I've still found the Radian to have a bit of flex to it, meaning I can really push into it when crusing and get a nice bit of pushback for popping. With it's wide wheelbase, it super stable and I can land back down on it with quite a lot of assurance!
United KingdomReally impressed
I love this board so much. It’s definitely the best board I have ever ridden. I’m in love with it.
