bi - level purpose

Poo · Guest

me and my brother have been having an arguement about bi-levels. i thought the tail kind of bends a little to give a little extra push into the water when you ollie. but he says its stiff and doesnt bend. who is right.

(this might have been posted this before, idk)

thanks

it definitely bends if it didn't bend you would just have something like obrien bi level.

it flexes and stores energy and snaps for big ollies...........

It creates the fulcrum effect which accelerates the boards lift out of the water. It weighs alot but because it's so technical it has really good pop. It is more sensitive than any other board out there. If you haven't ridden one, you should take one for a spin. Definetly one of the coolest boards I've ever ridden.

the heavy weight of the board is one of its best attributes, IMO.

it makes w2w stuff better.

if they didnt bend I dont think theyd have such a problem breaking.
I like them.

both the boards flex to give max pop.
