good to hear man... I bet it was a big change in the ride going from a K39 to a Impulse... I found the 39 very small (even though I was riding a 40 before that)... you should try out the 41 or the Reed... The Reed is by far there best skate |

If you buy a LF with grip, check that it is stuck on. My friend hade to change her´s 3 times becous the grip fell of the first run. but now its ok. good board by the way. |

The liquid skates ride really well but they break so easily, I have broken 2 of them in 8 months. |

I saw the a.reed skate for the first time today in person... it looked okay... the only difference was its wideness. The funny thing is the shop has to send it back because the paint is like chipping off already, and its never even see water... like if it gets bumped a little, the paint chips off... I know that it’s just cosmetic but... _________________ No Falls - No Balls |

i rode the first one a lot and hit a lot of rails with, but the second I didn't have very long and it's already cracked down the middle and that one hasn't hit many rails, but oh well, they are defintely well shaped skates, they ride really really well. It's just the durability that lacks. |

I was in Cali this week end and saw a reed at a friends... It's a big as board, made me think of a house boat
The concave on it looks very nice. For big guys like reed I guess the size is good, but a little too big for my liking. It is also a rather heavy deck, but I kinda liked that.
as everyone said, too bad they dont last long... I made a bet with my friend who has it that he'll break it in less than 10 rides haha _________________

I don't know why the hell they paint the sides and top. It always cracks off, well the whole deck cracks so I guess it doesnt matter |
