Anywhere between 174 and 197 lbs depending on how much skating I've been doing lately(and the crap I eat) I was over 265 for a few years, then dropped to 170s for a good while, last time I looked I was up around 190.

I did bottom out the pintail pumping it when it had 70mm retro zigs, but the the strikers I tightened up to avoid wheel bite and haven't touched deck to ground yet. I ride a wide stance for the most part and really love the flexy little thing, pumping it is very nice. Oh and the front hanger is not flipped, again to avoid wheel bite with the 77mm strikers. My brother is 240 lbs and has a flex 1, I road it a few weeks ago and it felt like a plank.(comparatively speaking)

They didnt draw dicks they were dicks get it straight you dick

I have your stuff shipping out next week i am waiting on the trucks.

Heres a question for the fish what would be a better choice on a hellcat for all around rideing randal II 180 with 50* plates dropped thru or kahas topmounted.

**dozer jr** · 01-01-2009 09:15 AM

maybe ur just a dick

and i would go for the randal 180's cuz the Kaha's are made for downhill, and they are super low for DH
if you want all around, go for the randals

wellll i was kind of...."intoxicated" and a agreed to let them draw whatever they want.....well, i've learned my lesson and even drew up some fish stickers to stay on theme

i will admit though, it was pretty funny until i woke up the next day and looked at my board....

**dozer jr** · 01-02-2009 04:39 AM

that's just awesome. i still would have punched them in the face though

**stephen.mhsrider** · 01-02-2009 04:48 AM

my carve/cruise/dh setup is- Adrenalin Pintail, Force C7's (front wedged to 42*) and seismic speed vents.

**dozer jr** · 01-02-2009 07:06 PM

that sounds more like a DH setup
but hey, whatever suits you best

My baby. I love this board. Unfortunately with the addition of deeper side cuts to accommodate insane tipping of Original trucks, the board became a bit too flexible than what I usually enjoy.

I still love this baby, and how it handles even with added bounciness, but want something a bit stiffer at the moment, looking at the Boomerang, hopefully it has enough clearance for my originals without any risers.

Earthwing with Originals is like sex ( well maybe not that good, but damn close )

**chandler95** · 01-05-2009 08:37 PM

Damn dude! You should sand those cut outs or something!

**dozer jr** · 01-10-2009 02:53 PM

You need to post a pick or two so someone can flame you and tell you to flip your kingpin

well, the 26" wb does reduce the dh capabilities abit so i decided to compensate with some nice low angled trucks and speedvents. C7's were my first reverse kingpin truck so i was pretty much brought up carvign and cruising on them. its my everything board and i love lower angled trucks so its my baby

**stanley550** · 01-10-2009 09:18 PM

Oh I love LOVE LOVE that board. Its good for cruising, carving, beer runs, it has enough real estate to do some dancing, and it just FEELS awesome under my feet.

I believe Mystery Model is a lot stiffer and lighter. I got myself Boomerang, but didn't get a chance to ride it yet, it snowing here in NY. Boomerang I think is a little bit more flexier, but it could be because of a slight cumber.

I would definitely recommend Supercharger.
