----------///=========( Review )=========\\\----------

I went to the Gart Bros. Sniagrab sale in Denver last fall and bought the afore mentioned board. I babied the hell out of it, kept it as perfect as I could. I was screwing around at the Keystone terrain park, and pulled a 360 tailgrab. Keystone has a way of making the tables of their jumps too small, which really pisses me off, but anyway, I over shot the jump, and landed flat. On impact, I blew out the sidewall. I was really pissed about that. I went to the Gart Bros. in summit county to trade it in. They didn't have that board in stock, so they gave me the 2002 board, but made me pay the difference. I was really pleased with both boards, they kicked the hell out of my old K2 pressure and all my other boards. The only problems I encountered with this board, are its durability, because of the style of its sidewall, and how easy it is to scar the p-tex, but that's pretty tpical with all boards.
