All I have read regarding this board on the web is good reviews...... surely it must have it's faults for such a good price? Seen one going for 229.00.
Anyone got one or had the pleasure of riding one and can give some feedback on it?
Cheers

had a fleetwood 163 for a couple of seasons now, and have to say I have been impressed with it. Really stable at speed, maybe as its that little bit wider who knows, really holds its edge. Fast Base. its done me proud as I have progressed as a boarder, this year was the first time I had it over kickers and it was fine nice pop, solid on the landings. Is a little stiff for butters though, you can do them but its hard work. Havent ridden it over any rails so can`t comment on how it takes to them.
If you are wanting a board that going to let you progress then you won't be diasappointed with the fleetwood and at the price it is its a bargin! oh and it hold up to dingd and rocks pretty well too!
