WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: The way it made me feel, which was AMAZING.

WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE THING ABOUT THIS BOARD?: Nothing. Seriously, I loved it and must own one. It was so fun and rippable. It carved and jumped and slashed and yes, it could even be ridden switch. Not twin tip switch, but more-than-acceptable swallowtail switch was very doable. Loved it.

OVERALL COMMENTS: Yes please. There were other boards I liked better, but this board gave me the best feelies hands down. It may have been the pinkness but I couldn’t stop smiling the whole time on this swally was on my feet. Cant wait to own one.

RATE THE POP/ PLAYFULNESS FROM 1 TO 7:  RADICAL

COMMENT ON PLAYFULNESS:

ADDITIONAL COMMENT ON PLAYFULNESS:  Rode like a 160! Light and easy to manhandle if needed. Im 6’4″, 200# and it was plenty enough for me, but many shorter and lighter riders said the same thing: very playful.

RATE FLOAT IN POW FROM 1 TO 7:    RADICAL

COMMENT ON FLOAT IN POW: EFFORTLESSLY FLOATY

ADDITIONAL GRAPHICS COMMENTS: The Pinkness, It made me happy. Also theres a Giraffe.

ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO SAY: I think everyone who rode this board gave it a nickname. Mine was, The Dream Creamer.
