OVERALL IMPRESSION FROM  1 TO 7:  5

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: Super floaty and nimble, also real stable given the shorter size than I am used to.

WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: Torsional flex was a bit much, and the shorter length had me feeling a little like a pinball.
