Habitat!

Backround Info
http://habitatskateboards.com/home/index.php

Made up of an insane team of Getz, Garcia, Wenning, O'Connor, Janoski, Molinar, Baxter-Neal, Gall, Selego and Khalsa, Habitat is known for stylish skating in such videos as Mosaic and soon to be Inhabitants.

I had a Brian Wenning board. Let us break this down, shall we:

Pop
Habitat's aren't known for having massive pop, but they have enough to get by. I can still pop my tricks, but these don't have a shitload. I think it helps contribute to the overall feel of the board, which is fantastic. Even aft er the pop wears, however, it still feels normal, because it hasn't lowered much.

Flip(concave)
I love mellow concave, and this board is perfect for me. Seriously, I loved the feel of the board. It flipped perfectly, and the concave is mellow but still deep by a tad. Overall the flip is nice.

Feel
What can I say, I loved the feel of this board. Feels nice to land on, to simply ride around on, and so on. I loved it for tech shit and ledge skating as well as gaps and drops. I <3 them.

Durability
These board's pop can wear fast, but not extremely fast. They last a while, overall. Usually, from mine and what I have heard, they usually will just snap as opposed to just cracking and chipping. Mine is still in near perfect condition besides the pop after about 25 days of skating everyday.

In The End..
I have never gotten the same board twice,a dn I have had a bunch of boards (10+) and I am getting another Habitat. Almost everybody who has had one that I know has loved them. Overall 9/10

kthnxbye, I was bored

Habitats are the shit. If I wasn't a cheap ass I would buy them still instead of buying my shop boards.
