Default Luxury Longboard o_O

Venturi Black Feather Longboard Review : Skurf Boards.com - Longboard & Skateboard Reviews, News, Videos and Photos

I was searching the net for stuff and ran across this site and this was on the front page. The fish reviewed another version I believe awile back , but I havent seen too much on these. Very nice looking, extremely expensive though. Just wondered what everyone else thought about these. I know I m personally happy with what I got and couldnt afford that even if I wasnt, but has anyone around here ridden one of these?

I watched some videos on the Venturi site and it seems to function well. Shows people Carving and Sliding.

have you ever tried running a narrower truck in the back?

####### big dick internet experts. if you havent ridden it, then shut the #### up until you have the money to try one out. this is mindless speculation and it accomplishes NOTHING.

I own one and I love it. I want another one in my stockpile for the quiver. my evo and subsonic boards are dusty prehistoric barges.
She rolls, low smooth and easy. Don't take too many steep paths off the the road so you don't gut the poor girl because she is to be treated with respect but she is the best roll ever. I could only imagine a WEFUNK or a GODSPEED being close to her.
