Skate Banana is all business...

By Ranked #1739 - Boards January 24, 2011

I've been riding for about 9 years. Started with burton, went to a forum, then a GNU and got a banana at the end of last season. I love it. I'm 5' 11" 200 pounds and decided to downsize the board, currently riding a 156 wide. At first I thought I made a mistake downsizing from a 159, but I have been more than happy. This board is so forgiving off jumps that its unreal. Your thinking bail in the air and you come down hard on the tail and she's forgiving as post boarding nap. So buttery on boxes; I've never felt so locked into a tail press before. I really couldn't rave anymore. Rips in the powder, great control at high speed, super forgiving in sketchy situations... GETCHA STEEEEEZ ON. All I Gotta say is be a man and rock the NAN!
