Default Sniff's Cherry. My new custom awesome board.
Today I received my new custom slalom board from Feral Arts / DSBoardsports.
Brian named it Sniff''s Cherry. Some of the wood is cherry. It is also foam core. It has tracks that these plates the trucks mount to. These tracks are for sliding the trucks forward and back by only loosening two bolts. The board is also rockered with a mild concave. It has a little flex.

This board is awesome. I love it. I only got to run it a few times just down the street in front of the house but it was awesome. Feels real natural and pumps like crazy. I still have to get the wedging dialed in tho. The new trucks on this also adds to the awesomeness of this board. Brand new Indy 101's. I swapped out the kingpins and bushings and slapped them on there. Indy front and back. Oh man this thing rides great. Can't wait to run some cones on this one. Hopefully tomorrow for some tight.

I'm just too excited to even write a good review. This board is just awesome. I love the feel of it. It's just great. Pumps. Oh God how it pumps. The board is just amazing and the Indy 101's just make it even better. It just feels so natural to me. I just set it up and hit it.

It's so pretty I almost felt bad skating it. Then I skated it and it just rocks. The white grip was all glowing as the sun set while I was giving it it's maiden ride. I thought he put glow in the dark grip on it or something. Oh man. But I guess you guys would just rather see it. I'll try and update with a real review after the newness wears off and I really can put it to the test.

Great work Brainfarts! That thing is like butter.

Sniff, what is your theory for softer bushies on the bottom?

I like the softer bushings on the bottom. It just feels like I can turn easier with them on bottom and the harder on top helps with the return to center. Anyway it's been working for me so I go with it.

I'm still stoking on this board. It just felt so natural and right. Like I had been riding this board for years.

That is craftsmanship the likes of which I have never seen on a skateboard. Congrats.
