My First longboard, Tuesday, 02 September 2008 Written by shrugs1434 - View all my reviews - Top 100 Reviewer
Longboard Review How long have you ridden the board: 4 monthsWhat is your setup like?: Flex 3, Lemon Zigzags, Randal R-II's, Bones Reds Typical Session Discipline: carving, cruising, occasional downhill How much did you pay?: $220 (complete) Where did you purchase it?: www.daddiesboardshop.com What were the strengths of the deck.: Very flexible and light weight. Great first deck because it does a little bit of everything. Great for carving and even good for some mild downhill, but I wouldn't go over 35mph on this thing. What were the weaknesses?: It rides a little too high and the flex could have definitely had more rebound and spring back to it. The board scratched and chipped easily and the spray on grip didn't last long and became very dirty, but these problems are pretty minor. I was 10 pounds lighter than the weight range for the flex I chose and I still bottomed out on occasion. Similar decks you have ridden?: Original 41", S9 Cosmic Would you recommend it?: Yes

best thing i've ever ridden, Thursday, 24 July 2008 Written by hendricb - View all my reviews - Top 500 Reviewer
Longboard Review How long have you ridden the board: 1 monthWhat is your setup like?: randall 180s, bones reds, gumballs Typical Session Discipline: cruising, carving, downhill How much did you pay?: i just bought the deck - 139 (found a sale) Where did you purchase it?: mile high skates (its no longer on sale there though i think) What were the strengths of the deck.: great flex and response! the deck just feels good, responds quick, and i have never ridden anything better in my life! i got some shakes going 35 - 40 down a hill but my trucks were super loose, and the flex of the deck made it pretty forgiving and let me get the board back into control. i honestly don't know if i'll ever be able to ride anything else. its just amazing! What were the weaknesses?: the cost? its completely worth it though. Similar decks you have ridden?: nothing compares to this. its amazing. Would you recommend it?: Yes
