Fuck yeah man, that will be such a fun setup. I'm on the verge of pressing the order button for a loaded Bhangra with some stims and randals, just waiting for that paycheck to come in. Longboarding is what summer's all about.

Do you know what their next board is goingto be like? I saw a video of a DH board, is that the next one? And do you get boards at a discount per chance?

I wouldn't get stims on that board, get a beefier wheel, I think you will be happier

No, I actually did see it. I have skated for a while and have had my fair share of slams just like every one else. But I'm not doing any intense downhill because I live in Michigan so I usually won't get as hurt as those dh guys.

Dude I know the feeling, I picked up a loaded Bhangra with paris trucks and O-tang Stimulus as well (Purps though). I don't care how much it cost, its the greatest board I've ever ridden, such a great all around board.

thanks, the BC eel is about the same price, but i was also looking at getting a smaller board. i like the 38' size on the maestro and I will primarily be using it to get around campus and to class

Nope, they're solid as fuck. Rides just like a Landyachtz Switch. The only damage my friend's board has after a month of hard daily boarding is a small chip off the nose from getting curbed.

Well I rock 4pres on my Earthwing currently, and have ridden stims before. The bhangra isn't designed for wheels above 70mm really, and since I will now have a dh oriented setup and the bhangra as a free ride board, I'd rather get some wheels with a smaller contact patch (like the stims vs. the larger patch of the 4pres) so I can slide at lower speeds.

My dilemma is choosing between yellow and purp for the stims; I used to have the purps which slid quite well, but since I know I won't be bombing on this board I'm tempted to pick up the yellows and just have buttery ass slides all the time (though I'm aware they wear down pretty quickly.) Any insight on this?

My friend has one and to be honest I don't really like the Maestro all that much. It's really nice for sliding, but the kicktails are weird as hell. I don't know, it's on of those boards that I feel like it SHOULD be symmetrical, but it's not.
