has anyone ridden this board? hl says it will give you more distance and ride faster than the 3ds. i dunno just looking for some rider experience.

thanks, later.

They were using a 3ds board with the drive graphic for some of the catolog and ads. But I did ride a prototype of sorts and got the basic idea, it is a high intermediate board sort of one notch above the state.And has a little less rocker than some of the other boards so ride fast and edgey it rides kinda lik,e a liquid force in my opinon.

erik, it rides like a liquid board? that doesn't tell me much. there are many liquid boards.

Think old school Trip. Very little rocker and very fast. A distance pop instead of height.

oh, i got it. sounds like a 3ds would be better.

3ds is going to have more pop, but more touchy on the edges.

yeah, i'm coming from a byerly so i don't want to sacrifice all pop.
