a great buy for an intermediate rider who wants to get used to new tuck positions, great for learning new things, it is super wide in both the front and back, this allows lots of room to try new things

This could be a great cruiser, a simple one rather but a good one. But
with the bamboo this is not a speedboard what so ever

Longboard Review

How long have you ridden the board: A couple months
What is your setup like?: Crails with a lemon barrel bottom and black jimz top bushing all around.
Bennet gators which are coned and i'm thinking of picking up some orangatang in heats.
Typical Session Discipline: Downhill, freeride, slide, cruise, whatever
How much did you pay?: Nothing, i got it in a trade.
Where did you purchase it?: SF
What were the strengths of the deck.: Great concave, turns much better than i thought a dropped deck would. Its stable but i can still carve very easily with this board. Huge platform so you can put your feet wherever you want. This board is pretty durable as well. also it is very predictable and you feel very very locked in in drifts/slides.
What were the weaknesses?: A little heavy but not too bad. The nose isn't very durable so i'd recommend a nose guard.
Similar decks you have ridden?: Rayne hellcat is similar, the concave is the same and it feels somewhat similar.
Would you recommend it?: Yes

This board is an absolute dream. Its really quite agile and is also uber stable. I highly reccomend this board for dh as well as sliding. Im used to riding topmount speedboards and this is an real step up in stability without sacrificing too much agility.

I am new to doing slides but this board makes it all the better. doing DH runs on this board is amazing. im learning the coleman slide and when you have this much foot space it is so much easier
buy it
