General Comments
Well, let me start off by saying that there is nothing wrong with this board. It's a good board in every aspect but it's main selling point is the weight. But is it even that much lighter than the competition. No, in fact Elan board's have comparable weight and can be had at the fraction of the price. Also, weight should not be that big a factor because you can get the same air and speed with any other high end board regardless of the weight. You should pay more attention to flex, wear and materials before you even gaze at the weight. If you want a pure, fast free ride board, may I suggest something in the Arbor line up. Street's your thing, technine will do the trick for much much cheaper. Park/Freestyle... dosen't matter what make it is since most companies have a model that will suit your needs. Just because it's more expensive or a Burton, dosen't mean it's better.
