I did not get it from here, but it is the best board that I have ridden. I have been through about 20 boards.

I have been riding a Penny Nickel for a while. I just got the Bantam. It is excellent. I am 32 and weigh about 155 pounds. The Penny was a little too flex for me but the Globe is perfect. It is more like a wood board, great craftsmanship and no need to replace bearings out of the package. It is highly recommend over Penny.

Okay, out of all the plastic boards these looked to be the best quality, but other factors need to be considered...like how fast this board is with the diameter of wheels. It's a very fast board, almost too fast. Stability becomes an issue...and the 2 soft cone bushings are way too unstable. I tried replacing it with 2 hard cone bushings on the trucks...better but still unstable...no matter how tight you make them. Finally I placed a medium barrel bushing at base and kept 1 hard cone bushing at top...now the board seems to perform excellent.
