    I got one less than a month ago as a replacement for my stolen s9. The board is awesome I love it. It is very stiff as i hardly flex it and i weigh 210. The kicktail does feel a bit out of reach when riding in a normal stance but that's easy to get used to. I have randals and 69mm Manx in 88a on it. The board is pretty heavy and rather tall but that was compared to my 40 inch poolboard style S9. I got used to it in a matter of days and now i love it. I got mine on ebay but right now they are on sale on that gear guys page i think.

    Are you looking for the 44Pin or the 44Kick?

    There's a review of the Kick listed on the front page, under "Consortium Reviews", or something like that. I have one and agree with what's in there.

    Oh, to get one: call 858-581-3045 and ask for Deb, or email: debs@fibreflexskate.com ( I find phone is better, but don't call around lunch Pacific time). Tell her where you read about the board, and ask her about getting one. If she's got one, you'll have it. If she doesn't, nobody knows better than she when new ones will arrive.

    I'm sure that I could sell every FF that I could get my hands on. My main distro is supposedly one of the best sources for FF decks, and yet they've been out-of-stock for months. The Fun Shape and Cutaways are finally available, but people want the pintails, too.

    Ebasil--Can you rattle Deb's cage and tell her that we want some decks? Hell, I'm willing to pay to add one to my own quiver.

    Mine's currently disassembled. I was running 1/2" risers, RII-150's and Flashbacks on it. When it goes back together, I think it will wear 1/2" risers, Revenge trucks and the Flashbacks, OR 3/8" risers, Revenge trucks and Cambria's, OR 3/8" risers with the RII's and the Cambria's. 8)

    One thing on my list: find NOS tail-tappers that aren't $$$. This board needs it.

    I built up my 44Kick with Revenges and 1/32" risers (seriously, it needs none) and Flashbacks. There's no wheelbite, no matter what, but the board feels too tall to me this way... it's going back to Randals.
