It's been a spectacular board for me so far. It's fun, durable, and makes babies smile.
Longboard Review
How long have you ridden the board: 5 Months
What is your setup like?: Randal R-II 180 trucks
Venom Super Carve bushings
Orangatang Durian wheels
Swiss Bones Super Six bearings
Flex 1 deck

Typical Session Discipline: Carving, Dancing, and Mild Downhill
How much did you pay?: Was a gift, but I would venture a guess that about 300 was payed for it.
Where did you purchase it?: daddiesboardshop
What were the strengths of the deck.: It has a flex that lets you absolutely dig in while carving; letting you feel like you are one with the board. Mine has some scuffs and scratches, but the thing holds up really well against damage. It's better than other Loaded decks for downhilling, but still has a bit of trouble due to the high amount of flex.
What were the weaknesses?: It has a bit of a stability problem at higher speeds, so downhilling needs to be kept to mild-medium hills unless you're very experienced. The nose/tail (symmetric) are very small, so tricks are harder (but definitely not impossible).
Similar decks you have ridden?: A Landyachtz drop-through deck (although I'm not sure what model it was).
Would you recommend it?: Yes
