Longboard Review
How long have you ridden the board: I just got it and have ridden it only 30 minutes, and it was an incredible 30 minutes
What is your setup like?: The deck, plus 5 inch tensor trucks and the 95a crown jewels
Typical Session Discipline: FREESTYLE
How much did you pay?: 45 for the deck
Where did you purchase it?: sk8kings.com
What were the strengths of the deck.: It is a perfect deck. Its very solid, just the right width for my size 11 feet, and not to long or short. the kicks and concave are very mellow, which adds to the solid feel. the squared ends are perfect for 50/50s. with the tensor trucks railstands are incredibly stable. the board is a huge upgrade from my old streetstyle deck.
What were the weaknesses?: uhhh... not applicable? you cant boardwalk or speedboard that well, but who would want to do that on this board
Similar decks you have ridden?: my street deck, but it really cant compare to this ragin' ramphorynchus.
Would you recommend it?: Yes

Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: 2 days
What Setup are you running them on?: dervish flex 2 , randal 180s i have the 77mm 84a
Typical Discepline?: slashing,carvin, standup drifting and sliding
How much did you pay for them?: my mom bought them...
Where did you buy them?: STOKED SKATEBOARDS
What are their weaknesses?: well, if you want a wheel that is grippy, do not get these. in 84a, if you carve hard at high speed they drift around and slide easily. if, like me, your into just slashing around then the driftyness is super fun!
What are their strengths?: good sliders for their size. if you do gentle carves theyre really smooth unless your going fast.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: none
Would you recommend them?: Yes
