Rayne Avenger Board Review!

A local racer was selling this for cheap so I decided to buy it and try it out. I just happened to love this board!

Here are the
Specs:

Length- 38"
Width- 10"
Wheel Base- 28.25, 29, 29.25, 30"

In general, this board is amazing for freeride and downhill. The wheelbase options are good because the shortest wheelbase makes the board quite responsive for freeride and the longest wheelbase makes the board stable for downhill. The wheel wells are also really nicely placed. You could definitely run huge wheels with a little riser. I am riding 70mm wheels without risers and it is fine.

One thing about this board is that it tapers quite a bit in the back and people with bigger feet might find this a little bit uncomfortable.

The rayne avenger's concave is super nice. There is a pleasure dome, or W, in the middle of the board which keeps you locked in when tucking. The edges of the board are also really sharp so you can really dig your heels or toes in for slides.

I would definitely recommend this board and will be riding it for quite some time, so if you have any questions, comment on this post and I will answer pretty quickly. Thanks for reading!

Lush 2012 Catalog!

Lush Longboards is a underrated company which needs more attention! They have a variety of different boards for different styles of riding and are priced right. Their slide gloves are also priced really well and are awesome for shredding! The Lush Elevator and Symbian are some of the nicest looking freeride boards I have ever seen and the Wizard/Legend are like Bhangra alternatives that can also go fast as heck down hills. Check out their 2012 lineup!

Kebbek 2012 Lineup

Many board companies are brnging out their 2012 boards and Kebbek really has a nice looking lineup coming out.

All the Kebbek boards look really nice but I am especially looking forward to the Ben Dubreuil board. You don't know how the concave feels until you stand on it! The kicks also look very generous.



Kebbek boards tend to be super durable and are worth every penny. If your board is somehow damaged, their customer service is very fast and helpful. Congratulations Kebbek on 20 years!

New 2012 Landyachtz Boards!

Landyachtz's newest boards will hopefully be coming out soon and they sure look sick. Looks like they created some smaller versions of the switchblade and drop carve which look very nice and would suite smaller riders quite nicely. Also I like the look of their new tech boards. The two decks I am most interested in are the new and improved wolfshark and tomahawk. We will just have to wait to see them in action!

New 2012 Landyachtz trucks and stuff! The conventional Bears look really sick. Looks like they will be a good Indy alternative. It would be fun to try out those bushings too.

The new 2012 Landyachtz wheels also look really nice. I am liking the tech sliding wheels and the mini zombie hawgs. The biggie hawgs also look like something to be excited about for any speed demons!

Everything should be released in March 2012 sometime. I really cannot wait!
