History
1995-2000: Early development

Loaded's goal was to make snowboarding available on pavement. They dedicated all their time testing different board styles, trucks, and wheels to get the ultimate feel of snowboarding, great stability, and very responsive rides. They started making Baltic birch plies, solid wood and modified shortboards.

2000-2002: Advanced development

After some experience with making boards, Loaded started using fiberglass and bamboo to make a more flexible, durable, and smoother ride. They started implementing Concave and convex cambers, developed vertically laminated Bamboo core, triaxle fiberglass, and functional and symmetrical shape to achieve a lively composite in boards, designed to skate bigger hills with enhanced control.
