| I have actually held one of these and examined it thouroughly. It looks scary as hell. Death on the water. The edges of the metal are pretty sharpe. It is very stiff, so as to not suck up the pop, but flexs just enough. I haven't yet ridin' one, but I think it would fit the concept of what it's trying to do well. I def. don't think it's the board for me (Chance for me to plug the board I do ride and think is the greatest ever, but I'll take the high road and won't). It is def. playing off the concept of the Bi, but that just means Thomas built a board design that warrents copys or progressing towards that arena. Copying is the highest form of flattery, whether you want it or not. I'd love to hear the response of someone who has ridin it or the ideas from those who made it. |

I would love to know how this works out too!!!
Seems like a pretty good idea, and it could very well work just as well as a bi and be much lighter...
I wonder if some composite could be used instead of metal for the kicktails, so you could make it rounder and even lighter.
Anyways, it's always awsome to see the sport advance... And I can very well see some sort of kicktails like that getting added to my old tolstoy that's already drilled from the bi-teg project hahaha

I was planning on getting one to see what it is like. Sadly enough I have not heard back from this guy for 3 weeks now so I gave up. You would think he would be extremely excited to sell some product, but I guess not.
