Magneto 44 Inch Kicktail Cruiser - 44 x 9 Inch Deck
Published on 09/24/2026 at 01:59 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
Magneto 44 Inch Kicktail Cruiser Longboard gives neighborhood cruising a broad 44 x 9 inch platform, a raised kicktail, and soft urethane wheels. The complete board weighs about 8 lb and uses a stiff deck for commuting and carving.
Deck And Hardware
Magneto lists bamboo and hard maple construction, an 11 mm deck thickness, and a seven-ply build with six maple plies and two bamboo plies. The 44 Inch Kicktail Cruiser specifications also identify a stiff flex and 7 inch gravity-cast aluminum trucks.
The wheel setup measures 70 mm by 51 mm and uses SHR high-rebound urethane rated at Shore 78A. Medium-stiff SHR bushings sit in the trucks, while the sand-grit finish adds traction to the deck surface.
Ride Profile And Capacity
The 44-inch length and 9-inch width give the rider a stable stance compared with shorter cruiser boards. The kicktail adds leverage for curb transitions and tighter maneuvering, while the 70 mm wheels provide a larger rolling diameter than compact street-skate wheels.
Magneto lists a maximum rider weight of 275 lb. Target's US listing identifies the same 44 x 9 inch deck, 8 lb board weight, four wheels, bamboo deck material, and a 275 lb capacity for the model.
US Price And Position
Target lists the Magneto 44-inch Kicktail Cruiser in several colorways, including a Blue version at $69.99 as of 09/23/2026. A separate Target listing shows a Red colorway at $59.99 as of 09/19/2026, making color choice part of the retail price difference.
Magneto's own catalog lists the 44 Inch Kicktail Cruiser at a regular price of $109.99, while its US retail listings place several colorways below that figure. The Target US price listing documents the $69.99 Blue colorway price.
Best Fit For Cruising
The Magneto 44 Inch Kicktail Cruiser is a complete longboard for adults and teens who want a full-size deck, soft 78A wheels, and a defined weight rating. Its measurements and hardware suit cruising, carving, commuting, and moderate neighborhood riding rather than specialized downhill competition.
Compared with Magneto's 42 x 9 inch Bamboo Longboard, the Kicktail Cruiser is 2 inches longer and uses a bamboo-and-maple deck instead of bamboo and fiberglass. The 42-inch model is listed with a 275 lb capacity and a 4.24 lb deck weight, while the 44-inch complete setup is listed at about 8 lb.
