I just got this board for Christmas, and I was completely excited! I immediately took it out to our driveway, only to be instantly disappointed by its slow speed. In about ten minutes, though, after I had read the manual (it's quite handy), I pumped up the tires to 22 psi and it works like better than magic. I have snowboarded for two years, and I found it to come quite easily. The only problem is the brakes. After about fifty feet of snow, the brakes slip so badly that they hardly do anything. I do recommend the brakes because if you live somewhere withOUT shallow enough grades to learn to ride, the brakes are almost essential. Also, the brakes had to be adjusted when I first rode it. The foot straps are adjustable, and the brake cord is longer than the nylon strip connecting the handle to the board, which allows you to use the brake handle to pull it up the hill. Overall, a very good board, but it does require some simple initial preparation.

i got this mountian board for x mas ever since then i have riden it every day it is amazingly fun it is very easy to ride and all of the components are very good it is a good intruductery board i would and do recomend it to every one

The description "good entry level board" is kind of misleading. The statement is accurate to a point, yes this board is a "cheap" introduction to Mountain Boarding, but be warned that this board has many limitations and those limitations can lead to some frustration which could cause some people to walk away from the sport only after a few runs down a hill. The maneuverability is poor at best, the breaking system is unnecessary even to the most novice of riders. The ATOM 95X is well made and is comfortable to ride, but its overall performance is suspect.
To be honest I would spend a little more money on a better performing board and your overall enjoyment will warrant the extra scratch you spent.

I was skeptical at BEST ordering my MBS. I've never mountain boarded, but I've been training my 118LB Alaskan Malamute for the dune sled races, and it was time to move up from a skateboard... This thing is UBER COOL!!! We ride street and trails, and this thing is outta control! It feels so like water or snow and so UNLIKE wheels- its unbelievable. Keep your tools handy, as you'll ALWAYS wanna be making adjustments. Put slime in your tires right away- a flat is DEADLY, and learn to trust your bindings and USE YOUR BRAKES! Brakes are a MUST- I took mine off before I botheres to LEARN em and I won't ride w/o em again. ALL in all- 5 stars from a guy who NEVER writes reviews unless I'm complaining.
