I belive they use the same woodshop as JART .  Havent skated one yet but when I move over to UK , National and Isle will be the only companies I buy from

National has a great team

Not bad at all despite all I hear everywhere about Jart

I'm skating a national board at the moment and its pretty nice. It's one of the 8.125 ones.
My only problem with it is that the concave going along the width of the board is really flat meaning tricks like 360 flips require so much effort, they are pretty nice shapes though, just wish it had a little more concave.

after the first day of skating: the board feels kinda thick, and hasnt got much pop to it. overall it feels like a toy board. cant exactly recommend it
