Matt consistently rips. His model is a progressive shape, providing the ultimate in high performance, modern longboarding. The pulled in template gives immediate rail to rail response. The increased rocker promotes tight turns. The board has been foiled thinner which greatly increases sensitivity and the modern tri-fin setup results in a looser board. The light glass job coupled with a t-band stringer makes for a light but strong board.
