with the F2 speedster SL 158 ! It's really stiff, light, so easy to control. It was mounted with Deeluxe carbon Xbone (step in), 58 and 55 in the rear.. It's amazing to have such a small turn radius and the board holds edge at really high speeds, I was really surprised. It only took half a run to get used to the stiffness. It's really a great board for aggressive riders, it actually jumps by itself at the end of each turn.

I also got to try a F2 speedster RS 178 on F2 step in bindings. It was pretty fun but a little too stiff for my weight and kind of long for the ''hill'' I was on. But it has incredible edge hold, kind of surprising.

So I'm really considering getting a Speedster SL 158 (or 162 maybe). I have a question though, has anyone tried the Madd 158 and the Speedster SL, how would you compare both boards?? Thanks. -Jules

Jules:

Timely post. I just bought a F2 158 Speedster SL and I'm thinking it's too short for me. If you're interested, I can probably cut you a great deal.

Send me an email.
