I love my B-side, I was riding a Drive, so this seems a little slower but Ive found I cant cheat my edges with it. Meaning I didnt realize my edgeing needed work. The DRive had Fins and the B-side is molded. its slick and easy to spin. my 2cents.
I love my B-Side as well - rode with fins for a while because they were so small, but even faster now that I ride without them. Good mid-level price as well. Frankly, it's a better board than my skill level justifies. Highly recommend it.
I tried this board out for a couple weeks and decided to get an era instead. I used to ride the state and wanted something with more pop and a symmetrical design. I just did not like the way it rode. It seemed too bulkey. B side has a wider tip and tail and I was used to the way the state with a narrower tip and tail rode. There is a general belief that a wide tip and tail provides good pop. I do not know that this is true. (I could be wrong here and just dont know how to ride wider boards)
