I am purchasing a Bustin Sojourn to do more carving and around town cruising. Looking to buy a Loaded Dervish in the future. Learned a couple lessons from having this as my first board. I'd recommend getting something a bit more affordable if you don't have the cash to throw down. Especially if you are experimenting with longboards for the first time. I don't regret my purchase, this board is made extremely well and is still a great ride.
Longboard Review
How long have you ridden the board: 2 months
What is your setup like?: R2 Randall 180 Trucks, 70 mm Abec 11 Flashbacks 78a, soft durometer doh doh bushings
Typical Session Discipline: Cruising, boardwalk cruising, light carving
How much did you pay?: $230
Where did you purchase it?: Daddies Board Shop
What were the strengths of the deck.: Very stable, smooth chill relaxing ride. It is my first board ever. Sweet GFX and is constructed extremely well. It is also made up of Eco-Materials which is way cool.
What were the weaknesses?: Not great for NYC streets. Bit too stiff and you feel all the bumps from the cruddy streets here. No camber so it's not very responsive in tight situations.
Would you recommend it?: Yes
