if your looking for a wood concave its alright but for the $212 it costs I'd go with Oak or New

if its still has the same characteristics from 07, i would say that the width is a bit narrow and the pbt underneath doesn't hold up but it actually rides nice..good pop! i think southside steve deserves a better board Smile

No offense, but if anyone is going to suggest their sponsor's board company, I think you should be more specific about WHY someone should look at that board instead--give them riding characteristics, notable aspects about the shape, etc. and don't just parrot someone else's line on here, which is what half of this thread has turned into. Straight up, I've heard more than one person complain about that sort of vibe--people pushing their sponsors on here pretty hard (and it's more than one person who does this). If you've got something really helpful to say, then by all means, enlighten and educate. But if you're just trying to attract attention to a different brand than what's the current focus, save it for some place else.

Now, by looking at the urban rail, I liked the shape. As dudufigueiredo said, it's classic. Compared to the other boards in their line, one thing I really like is the kicktail--it seems a bit steeper than the others, especially the mcguckin. After that, the concave appears satisfactory.
