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

i just bought the arbor woody and am very happy with it. my only other experience on a board has been a burton fluid with which i was also happy with, but prefer the feel of the arbor. they're both relatively light boards, but the arbor has less side cut for more effective edge (ie holds better on cascade concrete) while initiating turns even easier than the burton fluid due to the arbor's narrower waist width on my size 9's. and yes, all that crap about the spring inherent in the arbor boards is true! it pops out of hard bends very nicely. lastly, being 31, i didn't want a board with death graphics that look like prison tattooes nor a lib tech euro-disco motif. my only complaint is that my 2001 woody doesn't have graphite on the bottom. don't let my rating of only "8" fool you, i'm a very tough critic and only a board that made me levitate would be a 10.
