The 1985 artifact is super sick. probably the best board for under $400. Its a little loose, particularly at high speeds but thats to be expected from a reverse camber board. I like the playfulness of it. My only issue with this board is it seem to not hold an edge very well when spinning frontside off booters. I feel like I'm going to loose my edge hold when taking off. Maybe its just me or becuase I'm not used to the board yet but if feels a little sketchy. This board is sick though, best jib stick around whether you go 1985 of camber.
