Demonseed not for downhill.

**Hawthorne** · 11-22-2009 03:49 PM

When i told people i ordered one, they kept on going the demonseed isn't for downhill, it's too big can't handle the corners, it's hard to drift and all that stuff. Now i was convinced that a dseed is a downhill bored strangly, and i want to know your opinions on wether it actually is or not.

Thanks.

Well, you go tell those guys to fuck off

They're probably jealous.
It seems to me that the double-drop would make it extremely drifty.

It's a great board. However, I did find mine to be on the slippery side. You can downhill anything and your style may fit the board perfectly.

You were Punk'd, my friend.

Drop Wedge

Retro Bigzig

Subsonic (dancing thing)
Trackers
Errr? Some weird blue wheels

Not to mention, Dseeds are super hard to get in England. Only one shop will send one to UK for less that $400

D-Seed not for downhill? I beg to differ.

EWHAT????

its a low, stiff board with a large wheelbase...sounds dh oriented to me.

you could always refer to the rayne web page, the first line calls this thing a speedboard.

**Hawthorne** · 11-22-2009 05:34 PM

thanks guys, this is all what i thought

**killdozer** · 11-22-2009 05:43 PM

Hmm Rayne seems to say this about it on their site:

"The Demonseed is the most comfortable speedboard on the market Capable of reaching speeds you can only dream about. This board has a long wheelbase, TONS of foot space and a DEEP TUB Concave that is comfortable on long hill bombs while still gripping like a vice in the corners."

Sounds DH oriented to me. Tell your friends they fail...

ride what you like.

Better now?

**Big Dev** · 11-22-2009 05:58 PM

a dh board should be loosely defined as a stiff board used to reach speeds. usually with concave and a wheelbase between 28"-32", though some select few go smaller/larger for preference sake.

voila, a definition for a dh deck.

Demonseed = Straight up speedboard

i've used a couple boards for downhill, and i've noticed that compared to a top mounted dh board, drop decks dont stick corners as well. they slide out when a topmount keeps gripping, but thats the only difference i've noticed. i still dh mostly with my 08 hellcat!
