This is the board I learned to ride on and after trying other boards I decided to buy the Cigar. It looks like the fron would be taller than the back, but my 170 pounds make it look flat. I love it for carving, sliding and it's a great all around board. The wheels gave me wheelbite at first but it hasn't happened since I learned to use the board.

I love the board and the paint customization is sweet and the complete is very cheap. The only thing is i hate how i get wheelbite! so its almost impossible to slide so i wish the board came with little cutouts by where the wheels are. but other than that the overal board is SICK!

Longboard Review

How long have you ridden the board: about a week
What is your setup like?: Bustin cigar, Randal 180 mm trucks with stock bushings, orangatang 83 a stimulus wheels bones reds bearings.
Typical Session Discipline: Cruising speeds up 2 25 miles per hour sometimes 30
How much did you pay?: 208$
Where did you purchase it?: bustinboards.com
What were the strengths of the deck.: The Camber feels great on your feet even if the deck has no concave. With randals and my orangatangs with the stock risers i got its perfect height for pushing. Its also very stable but can still turn some and it all depends on how tight you have your trucks
What were the weaknesses?: The website recommended no wheels OVER 70 mm so i got 70mm stimulus wheels intending to cruise and slide but i cant cus this board gets WHEELBITE! So unfortunately ive fallen a couple times and im going to have to buy higher risers.
Similar decks you have ridden?: not similer but sector nines some with sidewinders and some with mission trucks. Original apex 37 original malakai 40
Would you recommend it?: Yes

I have ridden for many years on many decks, and this one blows 'em all away. The customer service and customizability is unmatched. The guys at Bustin treated me as one of the crew from day one.
