| We pretty much all are. Do a search for lots of reviews. Do a search on Hustler while you're at it... |

Zed/Gys, the thing fricken rocks. Just PM me if you ever hit the RDS bowl and try it out. My guess is that you'll chuck your Alva caddy.
My main ride for these past three years has been an OG hammerhead (30x10)
I used the Chuck (38x19.5) for dropping in for the first time in 16(?) years and now with the right wheels I like it almost as much as the hammerhead for pumping and carving the tight shallow at kirkstone.
Definitely rides like a shorter board once you adjust your stance. |

The Numbchuck is my all-around park rider. Although it's a big board, it doesn't skate like a "plank" or some flexy "campus cruiser." Great shape, great concave, and durable/stiff 8-ply construction. Me love it long time.
The Hustler is no slouch, either. I skated a Hustler for many months before moving to the 'Chuck. |

Yea I'm over the Caddy already, I'm on about the Alva 38" at the moment, much better deck than the Caddy, 38" is definetly my size, 36" is starting to feel to small.
Yea OK Ronin, I'm pretty busy here but if I ever make it to RDS I'll hook up with ya, It's hard to find time to get across the ferry.
O by the way....Zed's dead baby!

Hey,
The Numbchuck is a fantastic longboard!
I have mine set-up with Seismic 155mm
trucks(45 degree front / 30 degree back)
abec11 65mm NoSkoolz(88 duro) and
Powell Super 6 bearings. It is a great
bowl bomber/sidewalk cruiser!
One of the things I really like about it is that
it skates like a smaller deck. It's not a "big pig"
of a longboard. Snappy and responsive. If I
could nail the correct set-up, I wouldn't hesitate
to ride big vert with it.
Definitely check it out!
