That comp 16 pro is 2003 model.

That MBS comp 16(2006) with eagle has laminate deck.
In 2005 it was RCC

Yes. They feel very confident. Legs are not rotated the wrong angle, if something goes wrong.
Your ligaments and tendons in the ankle are safe with it.

sorry for bad English )

Boots don't give such protection when landing on flips go wrong.
I have injured tendons in the ankle. Because of front flips.

well done! unfortunately I cannot boast of such skills:)

it's just a matter of habit. You don't have to be so dependent from heelstraps.

I do it like this and take speed with my foot. You don't really need heelstraps for street stuff like 180's, 360's from stairs etc.

I think you can do it with your Infinitys. It will be a little harder to turn. But the deck will not bottomed out on drops to flat.
Sorry for bad English I hope you understood me well.

My friend is riding on 17L Trampa and it weighs a lot. And he ride freestyle on it, doing such things


so that deck is realy indestructible.

I have a good ride week ago in Kiev with the local guys. Have fun with Small kicker. We take speed with the foot on the flat. http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/7897/img6633h.jpg http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/7467/img6636i.jpg http://img545.imageshack.us/img545/1371/img6683d.jpg http://img684.imagesh...

I think that with your height Pro 100 will be more suitable board for you.

with set of red 8" wheels?

put aluminium L-brackets and matrix on Leon and it will be perfect board.

Yes- RCC and sandwich decks a bit heavier than laminate decks and much stiffer. (only deck - this board weight 6.8 kg and if you have comp 95X- it"s 9 kg ) So you need time to adjust to the new board. But once you get used to it, you feel that the board have a lot better pop and be able to jump much...

Otherwise, a trampa deck would be a good idea as it's impossible to break. If you want stiff, get a 17-ply. You need to know they're heavy though. They are heavy, but they have a good pop My friend have one - 35 long 17 ply deck. I tried to stand on the Marcos board on Z games- 15 ply Holy pro Its ...
