This board has magic powers! As quoted by the Legendary Ozzy shredder Craig Bond, It really does, it makes you instantly more STEEZY! It's surfy shape and jazzy colour, just encourage you to have fun on it. As for the technical bit, it is nearly 10 inches wide so great for bigger feet, I'm size 11 (uk) and it feels perfect, I like the way the concave starts flat and kicks out towards the rails, just hugs your heels and toes perfectly, so you can throw big standies and feel locked in. I (as with all my boards) whack in a 3d concave, and 'w' cave at the back (using layered grip tape), because I like to tailor my concave's slightly and the simplicity of this board allows for that. The wheel wells are cut nicely, and I have no wheel bite issues with it. It's also solid maple so it's going to last forever. I threw it straight on the smallest wheelbase (27') when mine arrived, so you have a bit of a tail to play with (can be drilled even shorter or chopped if you wish)
It also saw me through 2012 Bo Peep IGSA race (wet and dry), a week of Epic freeriding in the Pyrenees, and Peyragudes Never Dies World Cup. Pascal Jean (who this pro model is based on) is a great guy, who has designed a great board.
Altogether it's R.A.D, and I'm stoked on it, you won't be disappointed!Josh Monk
