Longboard Review
How long have you ridden the board: 5 months
What is your setup like?: Flex 4
Paris 180's
OTang4Prez

Typical Session Discipline: Commuting, Carving, Cruising
How much did you pay?: $270
Where did you purchase it?: Daddie's Board Shop
What were the strengths of the deck.: Flex = Efficiency around town, the MOST power for your push. Also, makes for some really nice pumping and carving.
And oooooh so smooth and delicious.
Makes me shiver.
Furthermore, it's light as hell and pretty short, so you can take it anywhere, anytime, and twirl it around with ease. But the flex is still extremely powerful. I was surprised - my 300lbs uncle jumped and flattened it out and it didn't break. I almost did, though.

What were the weaknesses?: Flex= Instability at higher speeds - that same flexyness plus the height make footbreaking and tucking at higher speeds unstable.
Similar decks you have ridden?: Fibreflex Pintail
Would you recommend it?: Yes
