First off...me: 185 lbs., 6' 1", prefer a ride that is not too flexy and not too stiff. I was looking for carving local hills, cruising behind the dog, and city pushing. Given that, I really like this board. Just a good amount of flex for my preferences. If you are under 160lbs, you may find this board to be a bit stiff. Smooth sweet ride with 180mm Randals and Flashbacks. Great stable but snappy carver, floats like a boat (I mean that in a good way) when I get up over 20mph....25mph max. so far. Stability is quite good and have heard of 35mph+ with positive feedback in another review. I can push this around town easily but I really don't know how to rate in this area, I seem to have little difficulty/complaints pushing most boards. Agility is not top notch but I mostly blame the board dimensions and set up. Get a smaller board if you want agility. Deck looks very nice....surf retro. Have heard that grip application wears quickly but have not had issues yet. Highly recommended deck overall....just be sure you get a set up that matches your needs (as always).
