The Bennett "lockerboard" was scootin' around the Crossroads show recently and Mr. Bennett called to say they're out on the market now in a limited run of hand-screened, numbered completes. We're stoked to see the little, rockered deck out there! They've got the hook-hole in the nose, wheelwells that match perfectly when you crank'em over to turn the way Bennetts do and 'gators on the 4.3's. They're at TailTap.com. |

Longboard Review How long have you ridden the board: 6 monthsWhat is your setup like?: Original S6 truckes, 66mm 81a strikers, bones redsTypical Session Discipline: City cruisingWhat were the strengths of the deck.: Pumps like mad - on the flat, goes from a dead standstill to good clip with just few hard pumps.Turns as tight as can as be. Careful or you might disappear up your own a$$.Nice slight concave.What were the weaknesses?: So little room, it really has only one usable stance. It didn't really have a good place for my back foot.Board is totally stiff, but still has close to an 1" of camber -- nice form pumping, but makes it kind of tippy and high for pushing.Would you recommend it?:
No
