I Like Big Boards....

...and I can not lie.



This board is 9" wide by 32.5" in length. Unlike popsicle sticks shapes, or "capsule" shapes, this board is tapered as it gets more narrow toward the tail. This tapered shape is very functional in most all riding situations and is reminiscent of Steve Rocco's "Honey Pot" model that he put out when he was still calling World Industries by the name SMA (Santa Monica Airlines). This one was made complete with the addition of Indy 149's and Bones 60mm A.T.F. (All Terrain Formula) wheels. Bones all terrain formula wheels are suitable for park and street. At 80a durometer the wheels are not too soft as I thought they would be but instead they are grippy and fast. After riding Rat Bones 60mm 85a for so long I am glad to have found a center core wheel with about the same ride.
