i really need honest review please, i don't want to buy one and regret it. I heard there is a weight issue? I need someone to confirm this. But other than that idk, looks nice clean and stuff but i need to know the difficulties with the Orion if any.

I've seen one broken so far, the brake holes crack but thats a non-important issue.
I've ridden the 5 wide 83 HTA on weird bars and I thought it whipped nicely. It's not that heavy at all. Personally I'd get the 81.5 x 19? or whatever size the small one is.


And I'd get it now, while the sale is on.

Rob that was me, and the deck was made faulty. The deck feels really light, it is only like 1oz more than a phoenix. The deck is really good if you like grinds because of the flat bottom and you can do 50-50s (also good with pegs). Also the deck has a 90 day warranty and the neck has a 1 year warranty.

i have the 81.5 x 4.5

In reference to the necks, whats the difference between the "Original" and the regular ones, so far i just see a difference in the placement of the 3 bolt holes and the proto lettering instead of the machined marks.

Well, my bad on my part,, I didn't expect that someone would already review this product. I was merely asking for any flaws. Furthermore, I don't wish to search through a "giant review" on this when people who have experienced any problems can just point them out here. Please identify that i'm not trying to disrespect or show you up in anyway possible, I just feel that its easier to discuss this topic on this post for those who are also wanting to do the same. It is both convenient and necessary from my standpoint. But thanks for pointing that out anyway.
