Longboard Review How long have you ridden the board: About a yearWhat is your setup like?: 46 inch M1,randall 180s, 78a 70mm Abec 70s Flashbacks, Abec 11 bearings (whichever was the default on the KS site), custom black griptapeTypical Session Discipline: Freeriding, lots of slides gloved and standup, some downhillHow much did you pay?: around 160Where did you purchase it?: www.krackedskulls,comWhat were the strengths of the deck.: Very durable, though the nose and tail have worn down alot, but due to my learning curve when I got the board and hitting alot of curbs as well as me kicking the board uphills and walking behind it, very stable, lowered deck makes slides easy and controlledWhat were the weaknesses?: Not alot of flex so you won't get the soulful vibe as compared to a Loaded Dervish or a composite series board, pretty plain board, the wood cracks alot as it breaks in, DOES NOT manual or nose manual well at all making shuvits and powerslide shuvits difficulltSimilar decks you have ridden?: None, the only other board I had was the Sector 9 Cosmic Series.Would you recommend it?:
Yes

Longboard Review How long have you ridden the board: about a monthWhat is your setup like?: Kracked skull scimitar
randal II 180
Oust abec 7
lime big zigsTypical Session Discipline: carving cruisingHow much did you pay?: $170+$28 shippingWhere did you purchase it?: kracked skulls websiteWhat were the strengths of the deck.: this deck is super flexy and has crazy carving and control. it has a beautiful design to it that locks your feet in and brings you within inches of the ground. Super low and great value. the deck is about 9.5 inches long and is very stable when standing on it, but carves so hard.What were the weaknesses?: the board creaks really bad. the risers do not conform to the concave of the deck so when you first step on it theres loud cracking sounds from the risers adjusting. no real damage to the board though.Similar decks you have ridden?: noneWould you recommend it?:
Yes

Longboard Review How long have you ridden the board: 3 monthsWhat is your setup like?: KS Scimitar with RII's and Lime Big Zigs / Oust Moc 7 bearingsTypical Session Discipline: Cruising, Garage, Carving, Light slidingHow much did you pay?: $185?Where did you purchase it?: Kracked Skulls websiteWhat were the strengths of the deck.: +The flex, at first, is nice since it absorbs the cracks in the road.
+Good beginner board to sort of get an idea for what discipline might interest you
+ CheapWhat were the weaknesses?: - That same flex disappears quickly, and now when I ride it just sags and doesn't pop back. It also feels unstable and awkward to ride as those cracks, bumps and rocks make the board start to shake like a bridge would shake after being hit by a hurricane *I'm exaggerating a bit*
-The longer the board, the heavier it is. Unless you are really skilled it's hard to get into tricks if that's your deal.
-Although it holds up nicely, the board scrapes the ground easily and it's not pretty at all.Similar decks you have ridden?: Dervish...and the Dervish was better.Would you recommend it?:
Undecided
