On Byerly's firsthand on fuel tv was John Ruark using a NEW bilevel at the little private session after the toe jam. Cause I'm looking for a new board and I kinda want to try a bilevel

New makes a great bi-level, also look into Devotid. Very solid.

bigtwake, It looks like it aye, i was wondering that as well. And if u wanna try one, its a real good board, its the only bi level that i have ridden, which i actually like. But then iv onlyridden the dub, zariel and the 07 deuce so i cant say iv ridden that many Razz

JonnyBravo, how did you like the zariel?

I found the zariel waaaay to bulky and the kicktails were real real stiff (i prefer a bit more flex in my kicktails). Mind u i rode the 44inch and that thing is just crazy its like riding 2 coffee tables on top of eachother Razz

. The 42 felt a bit better when i held it, but still to me it wasnt my style. It cut the water real well but

he was rocking a new bi-level, and it was set up with those fin additions...I can't remember what New calls them, but it was pretty cool because they allowed him to get a little bit of pop off of the box when he'd try his kickflips off the top. I liked what I saw because it was different, and pretty enlightening as far as possibilities and options are concerned.

Yeah I thought that was really cool how he used the nugs to do unique stuff like nose manuals and stuff

electricsnow, we call them Nugs. I guess cuz they're little pieces of goodness, hahaha
John and I have been working on those for a while trying to get them dialed, soo many different sized sets, and are about at where we think they need to be. Definately open up a different side of skatin, that's for sure.
