I bought this board when I was 13 when it first came out. I had some birthday cash and said fuckit! Never learned how to slide and honestly never even rode it. I still have it , practically brand new like the one in this video. I’m 23 now , I thinks it’s time I do some slides
I still have my sector 9 Cosmic from probably around 2007 ish with its original Mission 1 trucks replaced the bushings and replaced my worm wheels to Orangatang at one point. Rode it everywhere and the deck held up strong Many grip-tape changes and lots of abuse. Love the flex and durability of it. Still own to this day! Want to get a second one hopefully can find one since I showed up late to this re-release and they are sold out 😢
I've been revisiting 42" and longer Pintails and longboard kicktails lately, running Carver Carver C7 Surfskate trucks with narrow 3.75" hangers I cut down and rethreaded myself. Absolutely amazing combination and narrow trucks have so many advantages with few cons. The ride is phenominal and really brings a special aesthetic to the board combining old school classic shapes with modern Surfskate trucks in a super narrow hanger oldschool format.
i hate to be a bubble burster .but kids .this level of mastery ,can only come about .by having a bitti bitti weight on your log. if your on some light weight flim flam stick .your never get close to this, and i say this to save you many years in pursuit of being all that .
