Typical Discepline?: Carving

What are their weaknesses?: if you want to slide dont get the 75a cuz they grip very nicely and the writing on the side rubbed off but no biggie.
What are their strengths?: They have lasted me a long time, they grip pretty well while carving, they arent the greatest in the rain but they arent made for it so its cool, the ride on them is really smooth and comfy.

Once you ride the drop you wont go back. its stable solid and helps with foot braking and pushing, its a great board, solid and durable.

What is your setup like?: Randal 180's bones reds, and sector 9 wheels
Typical Session Discipline: sliding, light carving, bombing
How much did you pay?: 120

What were the strengths of the deck.: This board is really tough nice & thick it handles well and the cut outs are great for having loose trucks. It carves fine for a DH board, the deck is nice & wide, the ride height is awesome, and its really stable and solid feeling. Once you ride the drop you wont go back.
What were the weaknesses?: My board had a few nicks in the wood when i got it, its no problem for its durability but im realy picky. It is somewhat heavy but not that terrible.

Would you recommend it?: Yes
