i think you should search.

**peterwilliams** · 12-24-2006 04:04 AM

I think it's neat-o.

not great for DH, there are better boards out there. Follow the advice of xxguitarist.

A friend of mine has it and says it's not the greatest board for DH, great for cruising, but he prefers his S9 pintail over it for DH.

in a nutshell,
its a stupid board.

what makes you think that ? I am interested by buying this board. I would set it up with hooks and indy trucks, to make it a nice "boarder-cross cruiser board".

the platform is pretty short and narrow. So if you have a wide stance or big feet it feels weird. And yes I've ridden it

brigadier, tu es en France, alors tu dois acheter un Nowave avec des skyhooks!

UA=*barfs recently eaten poptart all over floor*

too short. and all the ones i have ridden either are way too squirrely, or doesnt turn for #### (ive seen 2 guys have to drift garages, not stick even one corner, then everyone else pulls away because we arnt drifting!)

but with 101flys they make a great board for manualing

I had one for a long time. It's a great board for cruising, really light and 1 inch off the ground with 70mm wheels and indy trucks. It definitely rides best with traditional "pivot" style trucks. Some people use wedges so turning will feel a little better but it's alright without them. The platform is way to short to make a good downhill board but I think it would suit your purposes pretty well.

I am not looking for a french board, I am looking for a dropped board !

**Rustyfriend** · 12-26-2006 01:08 PM

indeed a nice board, but not a dh board. i have had mine for about 2 years and still love to do long distance runs on it

and yes.......it does indeed manual nice with 101's
