Ok I'm 42... haven't touched a board for nearly 20 years. Needed something to restart and that could hold my 180 pounds... well, this bamboo sector9 definitly did the job. It is not too long, making it practical enough to carry around, yet it is a real joy to ride, being a mix of longboarding and curving... High on the ground, it just keeping on rolling... feels a lot like water surfing, without the wipeouts !

I would say a great longboard in the old school spirit with all the benefits of new technology. And my kids love it too... Wouldn't trade it for the world !

Only regret (but it is very personal) : If it had been just a tad longer, it would be ideal to drag around just holding it by a truck in public places... I guess I can try to get shorter...

Smooth ride. Goes over bumps pretty well due to big, soft wheels. Cruised it around the city (downtown NY) and was able to maneuver traffic easily. Sidewinder capability makes turns a breeze to do. Clear grip tape gets dirty easily, but can be replaced and cleaned. Light and compact, easy to carry around. Highly recommended for short distance commute and recreational purposes.
