The Procyon Banana combines both worlds of ideal pumping and pushing efficiency. The Banana has the typical Procyon construction for ideal pumping performance with one change: a 6-degree wedge in the deck rear. This wedge sets the TTX or S Tail to 0 degrees. By wedging the TTX or S Tail, the height of the platform is reduced significantly, which makes it ideal for pushing. Setting the TTX to 0 degrees also changes its pumping behavior: pumping is easier and more effortless. It pumps best with narrow, higher-paced pumps.
 
Why Go Banana?
 
Very efficient pumping and pushing beast. Great for those who want to excel in both pushing and pumping.
Perfect combo with bigger wheels!
High rebound flex pattern for efficient and fast pumping.
Low height for fast and effortless pushing. This is done through a unique 6-degree angle in the rear, setting the TTX and S Tail to 0 degrees.
Pumps well in narrow, higher-paced wiggle pumps.
 
Why Does the Procyon Pump So Well?
​
The Procyon has an asymmetrical flex pattern. The relatively stiff front ensures that power is optimally transferred to the front truck.
The rather flexy rear acts like a spring on the torsion tail, which raises the pumping speed. The rear also allows for a bit of torsion, lengthening the torsion tail, making pumping more efficient.
The long wheelbase, paired with the high rebound flex pattern, contributes to this. With the fitting flex characteristics of the Procyon, the longer wheelbase pumps faster and easier.
