i think it will be a very good beginner board but you shouldnt get wheels that are over 65 mm because of wheelbite

ill say this right off the bat, im more of a fan of a dedicated setups. this board, to me, seems like an entry level board. the length to be a "longboard", the kick to appeal to those that like kicks, and the flex to have a cush ride. great idea, but to me it felt like its trying to be too many things at once. the decks compression was there, but not an equal amount of rebound. also, for some reason, no matter how many risers i would put on it, it would always end up with wheelbite.

overall, if youre a beginner (student/need small transportation) this is a good choice.

What were the strengths of the deck.: nice and cushy ride.
What were the weaknesses?: it deck was really wheelbite prone front and back. also, i didnt find the tail usefull at all, it just felt too mushy every time i tried to use it.

It's a really fun deck for just cruising and doing "skurf" styled riding, making use of the tail and doing lots of stand-up drifts and slides, and doing berts. Other than that, I can't think of any other strength. It feels floppy and dead.
Longboard Review
How long have you ridden the board: Half a year
What is your setup like?: Tracker 149 Darts, wedged risers. Gravity 78a Street-G wheels.
Typical Session Discipline: Carving,
How much did you pay?: I don't remember
Where did you purchase it?: Gravity's online shop
What were the strengths of the deck.: - Really fun/easy to drift the back and do 180 powerslides and stand-up drifts. Bank and driveway berts galore.- comfortable ride (no concave+flex)- wide and roomy- the tail "pocket" feels nice. I really like riding it with my foot in there.
What were the weaknesses?: - Flex felt really floppy and unresponsive- Lacked torsional stiffness- didn't feel like I could get proper leverage to turn
Similar decks you have ridden?: Comet Scramjet 34"
Would you recommend it?: Undecided
Was this review helpful to you? yes     no
