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.

It may look cool, but for 660 bucks i expect perfection in performance.
