Good Points

Good and snappy.Steep tail and concave (if you like that sort of thing. Not heavy. Doesn't deform.


Bad Points

Sometimes feels twitchey due to steep tail and deep concave.Strong to a point and then BANG!Tail shape is limiting.Attracts god bothering skaters who always want you to come to thier "really wicked" church and lame christian rock do's.AAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGG!


General Comments

New the Zero Thomas skeleton board pop's big!I mean really snappy!After a week or so of skating this mellows but doesn't deteriorate any more. The concave means this board is really solid but it takes effort to flip. The severity of the pressing does mean that it can feel unstable at times especially if you skate loose trucks. Also if you skate even average sized wheels then the huge rocker at base of nose and tail catch on youre wheels when landing/turning, this can be REALLY annoying and added to the twitchey feel, has been the difference between landing a trick cleanly and putting a foot down. I don't mean to slam this board cos it is good, I just has a few niggles that over the course of a few months wound me up. Second of these is the tail shape, I found it over shaped and narrow, this didn't help with big spins, heelflips, 360 kickflips etc. If it was a bit broader it would have helped the twitchey feel. The steep feel reminded me of the old H-Street Matt Hensley, which I liked. But you do have to be agressive to pop an ollie on all but the mellowest of banks.
This board is strong to a point, but my mate and I dropped in on each other at a 6" ramp and our boards hit each other. His (a Chocolate), was unmarked whilst my nose was trashed.I eventually ditched it when I got fractures running straight down the board from the resulting delam.
