This board is by far the most underrated speedboard on the market. It's surpassed all of my expectations. However (for me) there was a huge learning curve. My riding style changed drastically, and for the better if i do say so myself. I changed from a brazilian tuck to a euro/american mix and the smoothcut has allowed me to learn to drift with precision. Pick it up if your a fan of drop through

Longboard Review

How long have you ridden the board: 3 months
What is your setup like?: Flipped grizzlies, venom barrels/stock pumpkins, swiss labyrinth bearings, 83mmflys/81mm s9 rf75mm inheats
Typical Session Discipline: DH, Drifting, slides
How much did you pay?: $380
Where did you purchase it?: TLS
What were the strengths of the deck.: Super versatile! With the grizzlies all you have to do is change bushing setups and it will do what you want. A little dampening flex(180lbs), not so much of a concave but more like grip inducing edges(feels great)
Great construction. First day out i busted it into a curb at around 20 0r 25mph with only a small dnet to show for it.
What were the weaknesses?: ummmm i guess it doesnt fit my crails through the drop mounting. No big deal
Similar decks you have ridden?: s9 Kommi
Would you recommend it?: Yes
