Do it
This board absolutely rips. Stable at high speeds/big kickers/drops. Still super playful with a ton of pop. Worth it

Great board with a few exceptions
People rave about this board and rightfully so. It's light, poppy and super fast. It definitely comes alive at high speed and is super fun to ride. It does have Death Grip but living in the Northeast I have found it's not great on ice. The top sheet of the board scratches easily which on a premium board, you would expect it be more resilient. Overall, very pleased and stoked every time I strap in!

Mega merc
Overall the board is super fast and light. The only downside I’ve found is the lightweight top sheet is a lot more prone to chipping, which is unacceptable for how expensive the board is.

ROCKET SHIP
If you’re not into just settling for the status quo this is the board for you! It will handle any type of terrain you throw at it and is insanely fast with the carbon base and omini pro tune that comes out of the wrapper. This is one of the only boards I have every seen with this structure from the factory. Capita really outdid themselves with this and I can understand why it sold out last year. This board rips!
