Re: [Longboard Lounge] Carveboard?

carveboards are sweet surfing machines, built for really hard cutbacks and
turning down the hill like mad. not really built for speed, they do best in
the 10-20 mph range, go faster than that == major wobbles. the wheels just
stick like mad to the asphalt. I think you have to decide if you want
something that really feels like a surfboard in the way it sticks turns, or else
get into some faster downhill + sliding board where you manage the slide of
urethane. the CarveBoard is a much different and specific carving machine.
aptly named!
