buying one tommorow. I'm gonna be using it for dh. I'm thing some bears with z dog 82a's on it. How it hold up with speed? I max out at about 40 so I'm guessing it will do fine. Just gonna be doing some carving and bombing. Anyone got any reviews of it? It's all personal preference Ik but just wondering.....

I have last years, and i fucking love it. Now i'm not the most aggressive longboarder out there, but i needed a stiffer board than bamboo and the dropspeed fucking killed it.

It was everything i wanted in a longboard, stable, fun and awesome to bomb hills with.

Also, when you buy a landyachtz longboard, my brother ships it. How cool is that?

Yeah it was pretty fun carving but then I went to bomb a pretty mellow hill (only get going 30 or so) and it was not much fun. I could handle it but it wasn't smooth or stable. I wish loaded made a stiffer flex though because I do like the shape. Stoked on the drop speed thoug I was considering a 5 two 9 but I decided it was worth it to get the drop speed due to pretty simalr reviews and specs and also my shop anly had the ds and I try and buy local....

its definately a great dh board but i found it a little too stiff for the stuff i do which is a lot more cruising and really deep carves
