This has made me feel satisfied with my Dinghy, and not waste money on another board. Thanks man!

Can you make a video about longboard or cruiser wheels on a traditional skateboard.

[nikhilmalik]

Hey, thanks for these reviews! I ended up getting this board over the Dinghy due to the historical role the company has played in being eco friendly, and digging the look of the artist board with grip tape. The quieter marketing approach for comparable boards was also a bonus in my eyes. First board at age 30, so a portable deck with a smooth, but nimble ride was the priority. I got no need for tricking ability beyond the occasional ollie onto a curb, and Ive read this board can handle that just fine.

Got my dinghy UV Blunt last week and glad I did over this just cause I do like my wheels and bearings. Plus the little wider deck

I have Arbour's pintail board from this same bamboo design line. It's actually my first board, and I was discouraged from getting it as a starter board at first but I'm actually really glad I did! It's harder to balance on than a drop through, but the carviness is a huge payoff.

you should review the comet cruiser if they are ever back in stock

[TeapotSnail]

I agree with lots of your points, but it doesnt stop me from loving my pilsner

[marcelothebiker]

This is exactly the board I bought as Dinghy was not available at the same price range at my location. My downside is precisely the wheels. They do ride smooth, but also too sticky! Nice vid bro, as usual

Great video as always!
I have both the Pilsner (bamboo same as reviewed) and the classic Dinghy. I also prefer the Dinghy, but my girlfriend prefers the Pilsner. They are pretty similar cruisers, but the nimbleness and look of the 105 mm trucks with the beefier Hawgs wheels gives the edge to the Dinghy. Then again, the Dinghy Blunt with the 130 mm trucks and slightly larger deck should be even more similar to the Pilsner.

I've got a couple of Arbor boards: the Double Drop Picture, and the bamboo fish pintail. Agree about the wheels, they're great boards for getting from A to B, but some modding is required if you want to get spicy with it

I’m not a fan of the spray on grip arbor uses but I like that it’s not directly competing with the dinghy having a higher centre of gravity and stickier wheels for a completely different ride style.

Thank you for reviewing this board! This is my go to when I'm out crusing with friends!

[javiercorrales]

I made it in the video, that's awesome

I find Arbor boards interesting and very beautiful. The boards in collaboration with Carver are interesting

[thomasevans]

Are you able to review the Landyachtz Drop Cat please, thanks.

[najved]

Hey @shred shack, could you review the Landyachtz Drop Cat 32", i know its a longboard but its short enough that it could be a cruiser

[tenableprawn]

Thank you I’ve been waiting for this one

[Evbuscus]

I've got an Arbor Axis 40 and I absolutely love it, the wheels definitely will slide after you break them in a bit. The only problem is that the grip they use comes right off after some harder riding, so it's probably good to have some spray-on grip on hand if you get one. Beautiful boards, though!

[RJ-cqdd]

I use this board with 85mm caguama wheels. Looks like a monster truck and rides great!
