Joey: My El Disco got ran over by a car. The Deck came out fine. It didn't break or crack. I had to bend the trucks back into shape but the boad was fine. This is one tough board. I HIGHLY recomend one. Neil: I'm thinking of buying just a deck and putting my old torsion trucks on it. It looks a lot like my old fish. Is it godd for sliding? Even though i'm still trying to get good at it, i'd like to know. Thx. Zany rami: how is the flex on this board? Zoo Johnny Zeta: Hey, i just got my El Disco 45' from Afroman Productions last night. This morning i took it to the local skatepark and couldnt belive how fast this thing goes and how quick it can turn for such a big board! An hour of practice and i was carving lines thru the snake run and doing 50-50s in the mellow part. The Power Paw 78a wheels it came with were a little soft for the park thou so i took it and bombed a few hills. This was my first time on a longboard and (even never having tryed any other longboards) i would deffinately recomend this board to anyone who has been riding transition on shortboards.
