perefect width and weight for whips, a tad too light for easy 360's or bar whips or bar to bars, feels unstable in the air because of its lightness, you really have to stock it with heave parts to make it feel like it actually weighs something burt thart extra weight is extra strength, and the deck itself is strong as (dk-2) i owned one (snapped) my two best mates ride them hard and they hold up amazing, 1 of the 2 fucking shreds! he brought it not long after they were released (early january or late december) and has worn it raw, still holds up amazing, they are (IMO) the all reound best deck out, cheap, strong, and light, the three things most riders are looking for, it has them.
