Alright. I don't know how objective this report is going to be considering my last 5 boards have all been Lib-Tech's.
I have been riding the Magne-traction for 3 years now, so it's nothing new, but if you haven't tried it out your really should. It holds edge so well, but can still be taken into the park and not catch on rails. I was in Whistler last week and it was super icy, and this thing just ripped through the ice like nothing. makes riding ice feel like soft packed.
Banana Technology: I usually ride my 160 so I was a little iffy about making the jump to a 156. Wheelies, Nose Presses, Tail presses, and Butters are all so easy with this board. It's almost cheating. It makes freed riding so much funner when you have the ability to butter and press without using alot of energy.
FLaws:
I took it into the park and hit a couple of kickers and was kind of bummed on the landings. Since it has a rocker built in it almost feels like you land flat on every landing. It's kind of weird. Maybe I just haven't found my legs yet, but this was a bummer.
All in all a 8/10
