I dont think you get those anywhere, even over here in JS mecca ( well, maybe the Gold Coast is a touch more)The problem with the Oside shop is they seem to only carry the latest stuff.
So no more Nitro, older Monsta, etc if I’m not mistaken.

Team roster hasn't changed.wow, it’s kinda wild when a big brand powerhouse seemingly destroys their own market share.
did their team riders all flee at the same time, too?
there has to be more gossip to the story.
Owen went to DHD before dropping off I think.Owen dropped off Tour, Connor dropped off Tour.
thats 2 out of the top tier.
Yeah, was wondering the same.I wonder how much debt JS has taken on based on previous demand…
You’re right. They just retired.Team roster hasn't changed.
Unfortunately, the perception of latest and greatest is strong with average consumers. Some brands pull good models to give the new ones more of a this is better perception. Those brands also want the focus to be on what's in their marketing and placed fresh in the shops. Plus there's the concept of less offering may help minimize confusion for the average consumer while possibly discouraging a bunch of custom orders from those "loyal to the brand". Asia production may play a part in that.Yeah, was wondering the same.
I think the idea you constantly have to come out with a boatload of new models to keep customers around isn't actually accurate.
When boards work, they work. You don't need a bunch of new models.
The OG Monsta was so good. Like a more HP flyer. Then they kept refining it till it turned back into a good waves only board most people rarely can use.Seems JS is losing it. Monsta 2020 was nothing like the Monsta 8 or 6, despite what the US rep told me. Seems like they just want to push the new models they have in stock stateside.
I have a Monsta 2020.The OG Monsta was so good. Like a more HP flyer. Then they kept refining it till it turned back into a good waves only board most people rarely can use.
Agree, at least in terms of good waves HPSBs.I prefer rockers from boards made here. boards made in places with better waves (Australiia/hawaii) don't seem to work for me in waves here.
Yea. I got the Monstabox with a round tail and slightly slimmer dimensions to make it more of an all rounder compared to the monsterI have a Monsta 2020.
The marketing as an allrounder for "all waves" waist+ is total bullshit.
If the wave doesn't have plenty of curve the board flat out does not work.
Meaning if you can't totally put the board on rail you either slide out or bog.
Which is really frustrating because to do a functional complete cutback you gotta have a ton of speed, or your section has to be really really really banked. So if you need to cutback in anticipation of an inside reform you better be lucky.
So it's not an "all waves" board in any way.
If the wave pumps the whole way through you're fine..
Ramzi rides their boards but has been on the injured list all year.JS doesn't have anyone riding his boards on tour, right?
If so, that's a pretty drastic change from only a few short years ago.
