Longboard Review

How long have you ridden the board: Rode it for 3 months before it was stolen.
What is your setup like?: Randal 150s, red bottoms and yellow tops.
Had bones reds, maybe 1/8 or 1/16th inch shock pads and abec11 no skoolz 88a.
Typical Session Discipline: Cruising, sliding.
How much did you pay?: 140$ altogether
Where did you purchase it?: Muir skateshop, got the wheels from milehigh
What were the strengths of the deck.: Very small, perfect for campus cruising. Shorter wheelbase made for easy standup slides. It was olley-able, and manualable. Very maneuverable on the flats.
What were the weaknesses?: Length took a while to get used to, but once I got used to the size of the board it was fun. Couldn't really cross-step on it easily, but it would've been do-able if I had been able to practice on it before it was jacked. Obviously not that stable at higher speeds,
Similar decks you have ridden?: None
Would you recommend it?: Undecided
