I rode one and loved it...of course i was comparing it to my LF impulse which is all flopped out and warped. I heard someone say that they think Oak is not progressing the sport at all... but that was comming from someone who rides for a company that glues foam to their flatdecks to make them concave, and after every set he would have to re-glue the foam down. My point: don't ask what everyone else thinks, just figure it out for yourself....or at least take others opinions with a grain of salt and realize that there is no such thing as an unbiased opinion.
Did you guys know that the Oak team van runs off of french-fry grease, and everytime it starts up it smells like McDonalds! Laughing

thats fizzle awesome

My boy picked them up this fall. I got to ride the gege. It is heavier; but if the dynamics are right then it is a good thing. I liked the weight and she came around easy on shuvs with those small fins. W2w's felt solid, I think they'll do well. Have you seen their team videos, those guys can ride.

On the very last part of Kirby's movie, is that a shove on to the rail grind?
