Brukuns do you use traction pads on your boards? It gives your feet/hands leverage and makes pushing on board more responsive. Have you ever skated with concave deck? Same pricincples apply only surfing you feel both standing and paddling
It just feels right and kinda like heel dents but way better and like deck rails looks/feels sexy as hell
That would explain why stretch himself would suggest 2.3 (+.25 = 2.55) knowing that I currently surf a 2.43 and want to go less volume.
Oysters man... never again, I don't think I ever felt so ill.
I was planning on getting it without the sk8 deck, then Stretch himself said "you'll want to have a sk8 deck on that buzzsaw".
. I would definitely feel more comfortable ordering without it, but if the Brazil guys also insist I should have it, I'll seriously consider it.I remember Stretch telling me when I ordered my buzzsaw, that they were designed to be ridden small, take off late or under the lip, and haul ass (to be honest, I think he'd say that about all his shortbaords, haha.) Like rts said, if you don't like the sk8 deck, don't get one, seems like he's moving away from them lately? I know I asked about it on a couple of models and he advised against it, and the boards worked great without it, so it shouldn't be a deal breaker. It does seem like a "butt tail" would be pretty cool on that model though.I was planning on getting it without the sk8 deck, then Stretch himself said "you'll want to have a sk8 deck on that buzzsaw".
I'll overthink this just a bit more before pulling the trigger
I certainly won't be taking off under the lip. lol.
Brukuns the superbuzz was/is designed to sk8 and be ridden under height up to 6" short and stubby. The buzzsaw is more drawn out more foiled rails for those who want same performance with out short and stubby. The sk8 deck keeps meat in middle and foiled rails depending on design. My sk8 gbuzz has full rails while my buzzsaw has very foiled and looks and feels like hp 2.375" and I went 2.18".I certainly won't be taking off under the lip. lol.
I want the board to hold and be fast, sure, but I plan on taking off as early as I possibly can every single time!
Someone mentioned that about the Superbuzz, but mine doesn't feel like that at all. It likes peaky lumps, if there's some power it will take off on anything that's not too steep rather early. It actually does well if it's steep, but it doesn't like walled take offs, it doesn't want to be pushed over the ledge.
I expect the Buzzsaw to be a good paddler, hold well when it's steep but also a lot easier to turn than my SB (which again, probably feels heavy due to too much length and volume).
I’m thinking of ordering a custom one.
