Longboard Review How long have you ridden the board: 3 MonthsWhat is your setup like?: All NS factory parts except for bearings which have been replaced with speed demons' ABEC 5 because they match the color. 72mm AEND NS wheels have great durability and look sick as hell. 180mm trucks.Typical Session Discipline: Downhill, campus, commutingHow much did you pay?: $200Where did you purchase it?: BoardParadise Charlotte NCWhat were the strengths of the deck.: Super strong board, PTEX front guards are a life saver protected my board from so many mishaps. Very Solid and stable at high speed. Super smooth ride. Awesome amounts of grip and great wheels love the "rim" designWhat were the weaknesses?: A bit harder to carve then most boards out there, but with enough effort it works nicely. Wheel bite may be an issue for hard cornering or heavier riders ( I am 160 lbs)Similar decks you have ridden?: Sector 9, Black label, random speedboardsWould you recommend it?:
Yes
