i got this deck along with the new bobby martinez ENZO (w/kicktail). it's fun and pretty neat. but more of a novelty. the other deck i got rules. i'll probably sell/trade this one.

All around an amazing mini board! It's convenient, and gets you the ladies.
Longboard Review
How long have you ridden the board: Almost a year
What is your setup like?: Tracker mid-track trucks & tunnel rocks wheels. It's a BEAUTIFUL set up on a mini board such as this one.
Typical Session Discipline: Getting around the city
How much did you pay?: probably around 140ish for the whole set up
Where did you purchase it?: flexdex.com / daddiesboardshop
What were the strengths of the deck.: It's so convenient. - It fits in a backpack! It looks real sexy too.

Also, If you put some fancy light up trucks on it, the whole deck glows.

What were the weaknesses?: You have to clean it a lot if you want to maintain that crystal clear look. Also, it's a bit on the heavy side for how small it is.
Similar decks you have ridden?: It's similar to most short boards, but with more flex, and more style.
Would you recommend it?: Yes
Was this review helpful to you? yes     no

its more style than performance obviously, but still, its capable of carving. its more of a campus cruiser, at least that's what i'm going to be using it for.
Longboard Review
How long have you ridden the board: 2 weeks
What is your setup like?: just bought the deck.
but other than that, i took my sector nine mini parts and screwed them on. alpine gullwing trucks, etc.

Typical Session Discipline: cruising, carving
How much did you pay?: 60 plus shipping and handling
Where did you purchase it?: flexdex.com
What were the strengths of the deck.: small, portable, sexy, complete attention magnet! =)
clear deck = totally unique.
STRONG. i lost my balance one time and the deck crashed onto the curb. tiny scratch, tough deck.

What were the weaknesses?: i've only skated a few times with it because we're going through a storm. however, because its clear, you can see all the dirt being collected underneath the board. flat deck, no concaveness, no kicktail. =(
hard to balance and kickturn at first, takes getting used to.

Similar decks you have ridden?: none. one of a kind.
Would you recommend it?: Yes
Was this review helpful to you? yes     no

i suggest having this if you have a longboard that you can bomb hills with, but is too heavy or inconvenient to carry around/manouever in urban areas.
it's loads of fun.
Longboard Review
How long have you ridden the board: 3 months
What is your setup like?: bought as a comlpete from flexdex
Typical Session Discipline: sidewalk, some skateparks, around town for this one.
How much did you pay?: $160
Where did you purchase it?: flexdex.com
What were the strengths of the deck.: super portable, wicked flex, a head-turner, feels more stable than it looks, responsive carves
What were the weaknesses?: with the stance over the trucks, your feet can bite the wheel if you carve too hard. (i broke my mp3 player doing this)
Similar decks you have ridden?: a banana board that i rode for 2 years before i got this. the grenade is better.
Would you recommend it?: Yes
