It will take a few days to get used to them, but the performance is worth to give it a try!
Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: 2 Years
What Setup are you running them on?: Ed Economy 55 inch, no Risers, custom Cutouts;
Lush Bahari 44 inch, no Risers, custom Cutouts;
Flat Downhill Log 40 Inch (like a Chris Chaput DIY)
Gravity Carve 39 inch with Risers

Typical Discepline?: Carving
How much did you pay for them?: 80 Euros
Where did you buy them?: Sickboards
What are their weaknesses?: They are a little heavy and they rattle. If you get a little dirt into the bushing seat, they will squeak. I also dislike the play. Some comment the bushing quality. I used to change the bushings once a year, that is o.k. in my eyes.
What are their strengths?: These are the best carvers I have ever ridden. They carve verry deep! The long Ed E has a wonderfull turnig radius. Check out the Hamboards Homepage and you know what I mean. They are also awesome under shorter decks for standup-slides cutbacks, flatland surving and carving.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: Randals, Holeys, Trackers RTs, Indys, Carver CX, Uptrucks
Would you recommend them?: Yes
Was this review helpful to you? yes     no

Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: Ive ridden my friends for about 3 months
What Setup are you running them on?: My friends apex 37 s8 trucks 70 mm kryptonic wheels stock bearings (which arnt good) And my friends torpedo 40 s6 trucks 70 mm kryptonic wheels stock bearings
Typical Discepline?: cruising carving and speeds up to 25 miles per hour so far.`
How much did you pay for them?: they came stock with the boards
Where did you buy them?: originalskateboards website
What are their weaknesses?: Im 100 pounds so they are fine for me. People say theyr too wobbly but if you tighten them to where you can push as hard as you can yet your still stable theyr perfect.
What are their strengths?: Easy to maintain and you can use allen keys or a wrench thing to tighten or loosen. you can also buy heavier springs if your a heavier rider. On spring for each truck so you dont have to worry about if tightening to springs the same for each truck.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: Ive ridden 3 different sector nines one had sidewinder trucks but i dont know bout the others.
Would you recommend them?: Yes
Was this review helpful to you? yes     no
