Its on my list and I'm hoping to still demo it this year but it might take longer to get my hands on it. Hey Shane,

Unfortunately I almost had it mounted up to ride in Whistler but my screws were too long for it and I wasn’t able to take it out. Its on my list and I’m hoping to still demo it this year but it might take longer to get my hands on it.

I'd be interested to see how it stacks up against some of these stiffer boards, especially the ET and Riot. Have you had a chance to try out the fun.kink this season?

I have no problem with tail pressing most boards. I went from a signal park rocker, super pressable to a gnu billy goat and was able to tail press the billy goat...the rider has a lot of say in butters. The riot is a fun board, I never had a problem with buttering that board and it was easier than the enemy.

Can you solve my dilemma?<br/>greetings<br/>ph1l Hey, thanks for the fast answer and the n1 info.

Still got more ahead of it I gotta crank on. <br/><br/>The base is synthduded 2555 which says "a bit faster than our extruded version before waxing and still easy to fix" Yep I rode the evil twin, review coming eventually.
