just wondering if the 1/2 pound difference in weight feels any different, also are there anyother noticable differences in the 04 and 05?

skatepunk, You can definitely tell the weight difference, and it makes it that much better. The 05 has a 1/4 inch PBT sheet on the top and bottom, which makes it a little stiffer...

I also heavily suggest rounding your rails down, it makes the skate sit a little lower in the water and gives you that extraa bit of traction and stability.

It definately makes a difference, but what makes even a bigger difference is the strip of 22oz triaxial glass weave. It really stiffens up the board giving you much more pop than the 04's.

you're not saying the 2004's are really flexable are you?

88skisupreme,

No not at all. I have the team 05 and I still ride the Tolstoy or the team 04. Its just much stiffer.

when I first rode the 05 I couldn't where the difference in ride feeling came from lol.

I guess it's what all those guys said hehe... On my tolstoy I rounded the edges, my lemons is still *stock*. I might go and sand them just a little to see if it improves the ride in a way I like, right now I feel good with factory edges Wink
