I used to have one but it was shit. I found it really hard to land tricks so i would advise you to buy a wooden one

Why did you bother spelling out SKATE in your name, but put "sk8" in your post ?

Then just about all of us are 'real men', and I doubt that.

awsome pop, but the ends are a pain in the arse. And lol, it is actually heavy as hell. Doesn't slide at all either

yes like a mother fucker when that happens you cant get it back to the original shape so its just as bad as snapping a wooden one....
id say go get a regular board and if you wanna alternative go with a lib tech but there kinda hard to get used to....

bullshit i just went and looked at one today and their just as light as a fiberlight (yes i wuz as suprised and the next guy) and the ends have plastic pieces that are replaceable anytime one wares off and they felt very slick so pretty much everything u just said wuz a lie and u obviously dont kno wut ur talking about and i have a question is there (really) any downsides to an aluminum board including the strength bcuz the guy at the skateshop said a friend ran over one w/ a car and it bearly bent but he might just wanna get rid of the damn thing

You know what is really ironic? I had just ridden a fiberlight before this!!! And yea, I actually own one, and those little ends, mine dont really fit. I dunno, maybe mine was defective. But, NO NO NO NO!!! They are heavier than a Fiberlight, and they DO NOT DO NOT slide.
sick!!!
