I've been riding my friends cassette concave but am thinking about getting my own skate and was looking at the swing. I remeber ppl making a big deal about the different design when it first came out. Just wondering whos ridden it and what they think? How is it compared to all the other skates out now; or is it just personal preference.

heres an review dave did on the swing, i havent rode one yet, kampus is mailing me one but it didnt get here yet so i cant really tell you how it rides, i hear people say it feels more like a skateboard, take daves word for it, he knows what up

p.s. void the talk about the grip, unless your buying an 03 board, the 04's come blank and you put your own grip tape and fins on it, unless you buy a complete for a little more $

I'm seriously thinkin about gettin the swing as a second board...I haven't rode one but all I have heard is good things, plus buywake has them for $99. That sounds real tempting to me.

It is a cool board. It has a different feel to it, like nothing else I've ridden before. It takes some getting used to. It isn't like a Cassette concave, but it is definitely a higher end board. I would suggest picking one up for $99.00 if you want to step up from a flat deck, but don't want to spend the cash on Cassette concave.

yeah i just got one from buywake but the weather sucks really bad here in the midwest but hopefully soon i will be able to ride it. but from what i have heard it sick so i just went ahead and got it. but as soon as i can get out to use it i will let you know what i think.
