Depending on your style, this board can handle anything! Quite agile in the pool, yet stable bombing a hill (the 19"wb makes it sketchy but fun!). The nose and the tail are less steep than a common street deck to have a nice pop even with bigger wheels. Sliding and freeriding is extrimely fun and easy: I could work on my stand ups and find my stance as soon as I stepped on the board.

Some friends found a smart solution that can be applied also on top mounts and works really well. Here's my homemade version. First of all you need a plastic material that can deform while keeping some resistence: the most used, working stuff are those gummy orange traffic cones, used in maintainence works on the roads. Of course there's must something else that works fine or even better, so if you know just tell me. I cut the cone to get a flat sheet and mesured the distance between the front boltholes and the nose edge in my deck. I then cut out and shaped two strings to fit the bolts and the pivot seat in my baseplates. Here's the result. The strings must be a bit longer than twice the distance boltholes-edge, to leave some empty space and let the gum compress and rebound without taping the deck. I added a plas...
