.....and it was siccckk. It took a little getting use to. I have been riding bigger boards then that for a good many years now, so going from the 157 and 159 to a 154 was quite the change.
Also, the Artec I had had a really nice flex to it, but it was a 159. And the Nitro I had which was a really stiff board, was nice for hard pack and for poping off jumps. So riding the Answer which is a pretty flexy board was wayyy different then what I am use to.
But I can tell its going to be a great freestyle board. I am thiking that when I get my Artec back from warrenty, that maybe I should try going up in size now that I have the Answer in a 154. I need something for speed.

yeah i noticed that asnwer u won was not so many cm.. i just rode my heartbreaker first time.. absolute sweetness.. nice flex.. held its edges.. haven’t seen any decent kickers yet but the tiny ones i landed were comfy.. no pow either.. or too many park features.. it did take an ice beating.. edges are a lil eaten away near the bindings.. speed = vertigo? hah or were u talking artec

yeah, I am talking the Artec. I asked for the Artec 4.1 in a 155, but it still hasnt shown up yet. I think I am going to ask for the 158 now.
I was thinking I wanted to try a park sized board this year, but I am too use to the longer boards….I atleast need a 157

yeah, good call, this ‘tiny park board genre’ that’s going around needs to die down

For sure. I cant believe how much 3 cm took away from my top speed. It shaved off about 10 mph. We have even been sporting the high fluro wax.
