08 integritys

if you own an 08 integrity, what is your FRANK opinion on the board you have bought? How does it ride, flip, spin etc.

Specify between the lemons, the TNT and the Team and specify which core you have. I'm curious to see how every is liking and or disliking their board.

here we go:

-i'm riding the 08 team 41" shape
-riding speed around 31 km/h (cable)

-board rides fast and high in the water
-when plane, board swivels easily
-when on edge (without fins) it tracks precicely without slipping too fast

-trick initiation is fast (as is the responsiveness of the board)
-tricks have to be initiated precicely in order for the board to flip or spin as desired (i had some difficulties getting my shuvs dialed in coming from a legacy)
-landings have to be clean and save otherwise it'll throw you off quickly (not nearly as forgiving as the other boards i've ridden)

now, after having ridden this board for close to four months, i must say that this shape suites me best compared to all other boards i have ridden so far (armada41, vinyl, 06byerly, anthem42, anthem40, gate, revolt40.5, legacy39&42, sst42, new schnitzel 43concave, sattelyte harlos40)
for me the team shape has the most skateboard-feel to it. flip tricks just feel effortless (for example: i just tried fs-flips yesterday for the first time and already landed on the third attempt)
my skating has improved so much since riding this board! i'm totally amazed! yet i'm looking forward to riding the new lemons shape because i'm expecting it to be even more skateboardesque due to it's shorter lengh.

DirtyCracker, do you have footy?

not saying you didnt or anything, but footy would be nice so we know you actually did a butterslide for a mile?

and how did you measure, a mile is a pretty long way, 5280 feet to be precise.

Lollar, phail

bob., well the guy from guiness world records came out and mesured it but the record was a 1mile 2ft and i couldnt go the last 2 ft

but honestly this board pops to your feet when you do tricks. so fun on the lip because it just hops around on your feet and the concave feels perfect for me doing i/o 180s and working on 3s

oh and i think that someone did a scientific study and proved that the bamboo pops higher then regular

i think TAD was part of it hmmm

I have the bamboo TNT.
And its extremely responsive.
I just got used to the pop, so now i realize it does have a ton more pop than any other board i've ridden.
It spins perfectly on axis.
Basically, INTEGRITY, FTW! Birthday
