atom 41 inch longboard
first off lemme say, oh my god!!!! this board is a beast the bushings werent tight at all but saying so i loosened them a little and this thing is a carving machine. the trucks are shiny steel and they look pretty thick but the match the board to a T. another thing about the board is that it isnt actually a normal dropthrough. its actually a slight bottle neck which provides and great base plus it helps you locate where your foot is on the board if you are if you dont have time to look before sliding or doing a trick. the back end seems like its stretched out and it isnt the most attractive shap[e but if you dont look too long and focus on it itlooks streamlined and beautiful. the wheels are just as pictured and provide a substancial amount of grip. id say they are of a pretty soft urethane. they are dark green and shiny. my nuts on the axles had to be loosened up a little because the wheels werent spinning well but its no biggie. the bearings seam to be of very very VERY high quality as expected of abec 9s. the design on the bottom isnt painted on actually and the wood grained pattern is kind of fake looking because the whole bottom is printed on but if you are not less than two feet away it looks totally rad. the board itself doesnt have too much flex. im around a hundred pounds and judging by my jumping on it and carving around it seems like just the right amount. another thing that helps is that the deck is arched toe side which provides a little more rebound. my first longboard the atom pintail super carver was a board i thought super highly of but due to an unfortunate accident involving a white mini van, and a careless driver, the board lays in four pieces. the atom drop through board total triumphs over the pintail topmount. it can carve ten times faster and in a smaller radius. overall if i had to rate this board out of five stars id give it a right on 100. im stoked be the first reviewer and rider from amazon to get this board. and i hope this review helped. generally if you have the money to pay the tiny price of 100 for a board id pay 250 for you should definetly buy this board. its sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet to ride and glides forever. Peace out people and enjoy riding the atom drop through 41 inch.; '''''''''''''''
