This thing was amazing. It also got me back into skateboarding but it also got murdered. by a jerk-off bus driver. I wouldn't pay 200 clams all over again, but it was pretty good to get all the components in one go for someone who didn't know much at the time.

Longboard Review
How long have you ridden the board: an afternoon
What is your setup like?: flex 1 (86kg), gullwing chargers, pink powerballs
Typical Session Discipline: cruising, carving, sliding, impressing the ladies
How much did you pay?: $AU350
Where did you purchase it?: CRE8IVE SK8
What were the strengths of the deck.: amazing all rounder, its long enough for anything you have in mind yet manages to be really nimble. i'd say more nimble than my vanny flex 2... i could put that down to trucks but this is truly amazing.
What were the weaknesses?: it doesn't wipe my ass or give me back rubs... no... but seriously... the flex is a little stiff. but that may because i've been on a vanny flex 2 for the last few months - mind you, i can still bottom it out on the carpet. i'd struggle to really find an issue...
Similar decks you have ridden?: vanny flex 2 with paris... really not that similar... i think the pro41 (the old pro40) would be more similar, just in height wise and pushing ability. i'd go with this though if you're tossing up between the two... or go with the insect mosquito... i hear good things
Would you recommend it?: Yes
