Ok, finally got some pics today. There are some scratches on the boards from curb hopping and such but you can't really see them.

Those're all custom grip tape jobs, right?

[bccarlso]

Nevermind, of course they are. Do people recommend gripping the Dervish? Or ride out it's stock grip-material first?

Hey,

i slipped once while doing a standup slide, dont know if it was me or the grip of the dervish.
i had some griptape left so i thought why not, some pieces of normal griptape give you all the grip you need. IMO it's a cool way to customize your board too.

[bccarlso]

Yeah, have done custom grip jobs on my regular skateboards (some decent ones too if I might say! :P). Do you sand off the existing grip surface first?

my favorite setup on the dervish was with indys, low, carvy and super easly to slide

I've been thinking of putting indy 215s on my dervish for a while now, if I can find a set for a relatively cheap price I think I'll try it.

[dpdsurf]

Great info. But I think you should also include Rider Weight in your questionaire.

Demetri

I agree. I had it in the forst version and forgot to include it in this one. It is too late to edit my OP. If mod sees this coulod you please add a Rider Weight line to my original post?

Thanks!

I put a set of Independent 215s on my dervish as a joke. It ruined the performance. It was to low to roll over gutters and it needed two full lanes to u-turn. Other than that it's a great idea.

[kurdt]

how fast have you guys taken your dervishes?

[FunkyPinner]

I have taken it up to about 25mph. But even there it's a bit out of hand.
