Considering Timeline

**Shadow2984** · 04-01-2008 11:35 PM

I'm looking for a board that pumps really well on flatland, and carves decently downhill. I was considering the Timeline, because I've seen people recommend it. Just like to see other opinions first. And please do not recommend a Dervish.

whats wrong with a dervish?

it's alright for pumping, but i won't advise carving downhill with that.

.......speaking of a timeline, interested in a timeline? i might sell mine, but it's deck only..

If you set the Timeline up with Holey trucks - then it works well for tight carving. A really fun board.

He's looking for a board that can handle a little dh, and can pump well on flats. Yes, that's a perfect serve for a Dervish, but he just wants to consider other options. Dervish can't be the only board that anyone ever has. He'll consider the Dervish, but he wants other options.

Pulled this from the General Discussion section. www.pavedwave.org

Just as a reminder.

...then it'll be a carving trampoline.

If you're considering a board for steeps that carves similar to a timeline... get the Hustler. You won't regret it

timeline is a good board

but

i dont think its worth the money unless you get it blemmed for super cheap

i have the old one.. its REALLY flexy but I like it like that

i weigh 140 pounds so anything more than that and its gonna be way too flexy for you

I can really recommend a spliff.......I love it for pumping personally, and it handles small hills ok. But not anything over 25mph definetly.....but is has a nice relaxed mini cruiser type feel but carves really smoothly and fluent. Get it with paris trucks for best results, or tracker rtx/s combo for a really turny pumping setup. I think the timeline is a more aggresive board. Depends on the feel you want, tm is bamboo/fibreglass, and spliff is 6/7 plies of maple. Also timeline seems more flexy.
