    tjena! om jag väger 80-85 kg, och jag vill ha en ganska styv bräda men som ändå flexar okej så att man kan carva, vilken av denna, den mjuka versionen och pinstripen skulle ni rekommendera?

  6. slipstreamlongboards.com says:

    I would recommend this version over the soft – 80 kgs is too much for The Fibrefish Soft. According to my preferences, this model is a better carver than The Pinstripe.

  7. Markus says:

    Bra och säker bräda i backen. Inte lika svajig som de andra då denna är hård :)

  8. Tobias says:

    jeg veier omtrent 72 kilo og vokser enda, ser etter et allround-brett og lurer på om dette blir veldig hardt?

  9. Tobias says:

    hva ville dere anbefalt?

  10. slipstreamlongboards.com says:

    Tobias,
    That is a really difficult decision, but at 72 kgs, The Fibrefish Hard is a really stiff ride.
    Hope that helps you decide!

  11. Bjørnar says:

    jeg veier rundt 78kg, går ut ifra at jeg vil stabilisere meg rundt 79-80kg. leter etter et allroundbrett som skal brukes hovedsaklig til bycruising. er det dette brettet jeg burde gå for da? eller har dere noen andre forslag?

  12. slipstreamlongboards.com says:

    Hey Bjornar!
    This is a good suggestion for the city as the shorter wheelbase allows for tighter turns and quicker handling. As far as the flex goes we would recomment that you go for the harder one.

  13. David says:

    Hej jag väger 95 kg och är 190 cm. Gillar fiberfish soft men blir hard modellen för styv för mig? Gillar flexet i brädan

  14. slipstreamlongboards.com says:

    Hi David!
    At 95 kgs/190 cm you should really go for the harder flex!

  15. thomas says:

    hei!

    har dette brettet selv, men lurer på om man må ha spacerne på, vil hjul touche brett uten? hvis noen har prøvd..

    Hey Thomas!
    I think you mean the risers, right?
    Anyways, wheels below 70 mm work pretty well without the risers if the trucks are not to loose, but with bigger wheels and looser trucks it is pretty easy to get a wheelbite without the risers.
    Try it out yourself and see if it works out OK for you without the risers!

    kan man inte köpa brädorna på denna sidan? hittar inget pris eller liknande?

    Hey Fanny!

    All boards are available through our retailers!

  19. J says:

    Hi, I’m new to longboarding, should I get the fibrefish hard or the pinstripe for my 63 kgs? What kind of trucks (Randal or Holey) and wheels (Orangatang 70 mm 4President 80a or 83a) should i get?

  20. slipstreamlongboards.com says:

    The Fibrefish hard will be pretty stiff for you, so we would go for The Pinstipe.
    The truck brand is a really personal preference, both brands that you suggest make great “turny” trucks with their stock bushings.
    Regarding the hardness of the wheels we would recommend the 80a as an overall wheel over the 83a unless you are getting into sliding, but this is also a really personal preference.
    Good luck!

  21. Swed says:

    Hej e det bräda bra om man väger runt 93-97? är flexen bra i denna då? :) men ändå håller tack

  22. Josef says:

    Hey!
    i weigh about 65kg. Can i use it? Why is it so bad if it’s stiff?

  23. slipstreamlongboards.com says:

    Hey Joseph!

    Sure you can use it! If you want a stiff and rigid board this will be all good, but if you want the board to flex you should consider other options.
    Some people like boards that flex, others dont, it is just a matter of personal preference!

  24. Josef says:

    Ok, so i bought it and i’m kinda in love with it. I just want all this snow to melt, and all pebbles on the street to be brushed away so i could ride it!
