Pantheon Shuriken w/ Carver CX
The board itself is great! Looks awesome, the front is wide and has this nice subtle curve to hold your foot in place, and in the back the upturned kick makes a very nice pocket for your rear foot. And the middle cutout is actually pretty convenient for carrying it around.
Though overall the setup feels weird to me. I think the most likely culprit is the CX trucks have way too soft bushings for me? (I’m 6ft 170 lbs for reference.) It feels way too wiggly and like I’m not getting much energy back from the trucks. Weirdly I prefer my Genesis with the C7 trucks tightened all the way up, because it feels more surfy and like I’m actually getting energy out of doing a full body pump.
Might also partially be the wheels, they’re not exactly meant for this so might help to have something more grippy.
